It's a beatable match-up, die-roll for G1 is important since the deck has no clock to kill you with, just a soft-lock (which is annoying anyways)

Most are trigger happy to put SDT on top when you cast a duress or something. The deck plays no spell pierce mainboard, just snares (dunno if it even plays pierces sideboard)

EDIT: he's not playing doomsday in SB but krosan grip, but when you resolve doomsday, it's insta-win anyways.
I'm glad y'all get to play against bad CB players (I don't unfortunately). Be aware that hoping they get trigger happy with top isn't going to get you there if they have any idea what they're doing. This applies especially if they're playing the Bant list with a clock, or the thopters list, which has a million silver bullets that screw us over.

that also keeps all the tutors in.
I would also board out a Mox for Wipe Away. There are all sorts of shenanigans that can surprise you postboard, depending on the list. Karakas is the most obvious, but I've also been screwed over by things like Ensnaring Bridge and Oblivion Ring (damn you thopters).
