Things have not been well for Doomsday. Sunday, discoverN was on Grixis Breach. With all the various things your opponent can do, it gets harder to build piles preventing them. This explains Duress in discoverN's main deck. We have to be a bit proactive. I'm so tired of the surprises that I'm about to start playing Peek again to get more information. Nothing else is particularly new. Everyone is still on Fatal Push. I would guess in a week or two we'll see Doomsday numbers start to pick up and we'll have a large success in some tournament. That's been the cycle for the past few months.
