Stiflenought is seeing less play in this fairer format while control decks are doing well. This build still made a recent Challenge Top 16:

Tamiyo and Oculus have proven themselves over time.
The deck now has plenty of proactive CA at low mana without needing to rely on comboing with 4 Uro/Nulldrifter (slow) or missing Standstill (design-limiting).
Thrull looks good again, with Reanimator finally banned out of dominance, and more fair decks running ETB effects.
