Thoughts

Main Core: 60 cards Side Core: 12 cards

Not much to say when it's one person with two lists. I am surprised to see Fatal Push still around. Maybe it is because of Constructs? I haven't been missing it. Cutting down Leyline of the Void and Steel Sabotage says a lot about the meta at the moment. Doomsday needs to worry about Tinker and Underworld Breach right now. Energy Flux can be good against Tinker and PO, if they have to pass the turn. I've often found it too expensive against shops, and have been testing Null Rod recently. We'll see how it turns out.
I expect next week to be zero lists or discoverN winning a challenge with some interesting sideboard choices.
