Thoughts
Main Core: 55 cards Side Core: 11 cards
I always have respect for someone trying a build without Necropotence. I'm not sure if another Thassa's Oracle is the best choice, but it's not the worst option.
Duress is still up, Daze is still down. Portent is more popular this week, although that's likely people following discoverN's lead.
Nothing particularly spicy in the side this week, although discoverN seems to be off Hydroblast, but still not playing any creatures in the side. Almost everyone seems to be up to 5 cards for Shops. discoverN is packing a third Duress in the side. That's sending a message.
