I tried keeping two in at some point. It seemed to work out pretty good for me sometimes, but I just still wasn't sure whether it was good enough to keep MD since they seem like terrible top decks late game. I know your known for having a different opinion on when or when not side FoW out whereas many others just seem to side all of them out when playing against non-combo decks. I guess my question is do you keep any FoWs in the mirror or against any Jace deck? Also, is Maelstrom Pulse worth having in the deck for Jace mirrors despite the potential draw back post-board?
I like leaving in 1-2 nowadays for postboard games because of Notion Thief (to a lesser degree) and getting ahead on board is a very real thing. Sometimes Ancestral Vision is too slow to catch you up if you get too far behind on board.
