I also play 2 Thorn of Amethyst in the SB as well, which might be overkill but I absolutely DO NOT want to lose my good matchups.
Game 2 I demolish him on a mulligan to 6 when I get cards with text like Revoker. Game 3 I keep a good hand for the draw but am vulnerable to a fast empty (I board in Ratchet Bomb on the draw vs. storm because their best turn one is an empty). He empties for 12. I feel like MUD should almost never lose a game on the play.
Did you even read? Yes, I play 4 x Revoker ... 4 x 3Ball, 4 x Chalice, 4 x LSG. I also had 2 Thorns in my board. I also had 4 god damn Envelops in my deck and still managed to not have a keepable hand. There's a reason this deck is a crap shoot. Even worse *I knew* he was on storm, had the play and mulled to 4. My first 3 hands had no plays. My 4 had a Wasteland, another land, 3ball and Metalworker. My scry showed me a fucking sick looking Wurmcoil Engine. After that debacle I dropped at 3-2 in a 7 round event, I had no desire to continue to 'play'.
