If one sticks and do its job, only TNN is a problem and with no Lords it's actually possible to race this... card... Still I don't think the mu could become any better, at least I have no idea how (I don't want to pack 18 burn spells and die to all the other decks). IMO the Merfolk Build with the full set of TNN and Images is the most relevant example of how dumb TNN is. Transforming a game between two fair decks into an uninteractive one.
