You're welcome in advance if you're reading this, Hans. Here's hoping my work here is worth your gratitude.
This deck does a lot of different things, Hans, of varying plausibility. l love the Stuffy Doll/Pariah's Shield combo. The counterspell backup looks good. Your defense creatures are a good call, as is the card drawing. There are only two noteworthy problems here, Hans. One, your card choices are sub-par when there are better cards out there. And two, well, I'll come back to that.
l'll start on the counterspells. You've got 4 Cancel, 2 Convolute, and 2 Rewind.Cancel works perfectly, but Convolute and Rewind are too expensive. Replace them wlth 4 Rune Snag-- the better, more powerful card.
Next, your card drawing. Tidings is fine, and so is Tellng Time, but the Counsel isn't. Two cards at sorcery speed is unexcitng. Try Thieving Magpie or Thought Courier for repeated draw whenever you want! Also, take out Reminisce-- it doesn't do enough.
Now for your psuedo-Walls. Soulsworn Jury needs to be more Stuffy Dolls or lnterceptors. A few Drift of Phantasms may help too, and you can't beat Kami of Old Stome for sheer toughness. Order of the Stars holds off beatdown expertly as well. Not a lot to do there-- just defenders.
Next comes Leyline of Slngularity. Why? What does it do for you? Not enough, that's what. Drop it. Use those spaces for a few Azorius Guildmage. She's got so much utilty you'll wonder how you got a long without her.
And finally, time to stop ignoring the elephant ln the room here. There's a huge problem l've glossed over so far, and l'm fixing that problem now. Dark Depths. Dark Depths only belongs in decks with huge mana combos. Your deck has no such combo. You are only hurting yourself with Dark Depths. Fortunately, the answer is there in front of us-- teh 2 Akroma come up from the sidedeck to replace the Depths. This will make your games much smoother, l guarantee.
And that concludes my fix of an entire playgroup's decks in a single weekend. l really enjoyed this whole process. Thanks for E-mailing me.
Don't ever make me do this again.
Good luck, BMoor.
