Vintage Doomsday Deck List Analysis for 2022.04.31-05.01

With all the UR and Breach floating around, it was not a good weekend for Doomsday. One list got posted twice, once for Sunday's Challenge and in the League lists. So there's not a whole lot to talk about, or is there?

Thoughts

With the number of UR decks on the rise, Opposition Agent is a good call. Dark Ritual means speed, and we need to use them as soon as possible. We need to put pressure on our opponents to run them out of resources.
But there's a lot of Aggro and cheap creatures like Ragavan are all over. Is Murktide Reagent the best choice when Pyroblast is all over the place? It might be Tasigur's time to shine.
I do like seeing Path of Peril as an option that works on Constructs as well as Ragavan, Lavinia, DRS... Shame it doesn't take care of Hullbreacher or Opposition Agent. Bontu's Reckoning is the closest choice we have to take care of that, but I suppose that's what Tabernacle is for.
