Played a local yesterday, went 2-2 lost to Eldrazi and burn, won against aggro loam and grixis delver.
The loss against Eldrazi should be a win, misplays by me and bad Sideboarding. Boarded out 3 FoWs instead of the lackeys. Had a turn 1 Chalice with my hand being a lackey, didgeridoo, artificial evolution and a brainstorm. Almost won that game, but like I said, misplaced badly. Ah well, won't do that this Sunday.
Burn was a bit of bad luck.
Boros formatshaper won several games on it's own. Including game 2 against Eldrazi.
CotV on 1 when we are on the draw is a good card against is. Feeling that the pithing needles should be Abrades. Good against Chalice, vials, needles/revokes but also against Containment priest and such.
@Michael, what do you think?
I would think that bloodmoon solves that problem
Went 3-3 last weekend. Will write a full report (with sideboards) later. Did plenty of mulligans, no landers or no blue mana. The losses where losses non the less, but maybe also from being a bit unlucky.
Won against Show and Tell, Steel Stompy and Dragon Stompy (thanks to last minute changing of 1 needle to an abrade)
Lost against BR Reanimator (twice) and Food Chain (was a bit unlucky here, mulled to 5 in game 1, game 2 opponent got the perfect hymn against a hand of 5)
Still remains fun to play, although I'm missing/lacking the extra cantrips or sometimes a bit more consistency on drawing threats. Didn't got to play the Changeling Titan (I could 2 times, but my Boros Formatshaper was already winning the game)

Time to grab a set of Didgeridoo!
Neheb, Dreadhorde Champion
2RR, Rare
Legendary Creature - Zombie Minotaur Warrior
Trample
Whenever Neheb, Dreadhorde Champion deals combat damage to a player or a planeswalker, you may discard any number of cards. If you do, draw that many cards and add that much {R}. Until end of turn, you don't lose this mana as steps and phases end.
5/4
Keep in mind that, if somehow that new London mulligan rule gets implemented, it'll be much easier to find a Didgeridoo in your opening hand.
I picked up Teferi to try uw soon, thoughts? Preeminent captain works with artificial evolution and adaptation too. Etutor can gran didgeridoo or adaptation or scepter.

Went 2-2 tonight trying a list close to the above post. Beat elves and pox, lost to dnt in three and uw show and tell with teferi. Notable wins were g2 vs dnt didgeridoo'ing in progenitus to block then win. G3 vs elves I used Preeminent captain plus arcane adaptation to drop in grizzly, then chained orims chant to victory. Got a turn two emmy dropped in using didgeridoo but lost to show into omni into emmy vs whitefaces .
