• Ran 2 test leagues, went 40%. Meta is incredibly fair blue. Some notes:
  • I really like the oath of Kaya. As mentioned by fox, having some life gain is incredibly helpful vs lightning bolt and Marit Lage. The reach was surprisingly good; e tutor plus Aminatou does a bad bolt snap bolt impression.
  • Moat is gg vs merfolk g1. Flavour fail. Overall etutor package is great.
  • I still think Stoney is better than CB vs combo, but cb is way better in other mus. It is also cute with aminatou and raises the floor of etutor vs fair blue.
  • Switching mana to be stabler is nice, but the power of sanctuary is great. I think a 1 of sanctuary that you only play as flood insurance or if you have a draw with a bunch of labes (no cards that rely on it like terminus) is fine. Until the opponent reveals they are on a non-wasteland deck I will just fetch basics.
  • I agree with fox overall that the deck already has a great cealing, so concentrated on increasing the floor of the deck. Cut 3 drop engines for CB and another land. Cut land tax plus Karakas for labe plus seat of the synod. If I need to use etutor for Blue mana I better get something that gives it to me right away and can’t get dazed. Cute with etutor plus CB.
  • Delver is fucking everywhere; my 3 drops are already good vs blue and my 1 drops (etutor) are bad. Thus my blue hate needs to be 1 cmc. I think splashing reb is too risky, so I am running 4 mystical Dispute as the discount version. Dispute is much better vs Urza echo and UBx combo at least. Also I should consider paths in the sideboard as additional delver/depths hate.
