Thoughts
Monsieur_Verdoux pre-sided for the tournament. Or submitted a weird list.
Main Core: 51 cards Side Core: 5 cards
Main Sheoldred, the Apocalypse and a Fatal Push or Cut Down seem to have been calls for the Last Chances, but seeing them slowly increase in the following weeks would not surprise me.
Personal choices aside, we have an increase from an average of 4.44 pieces of Removal to 5.09. Creatures took a dip (2.0 to 1.3), but Sheoldred in the main can explain that a little.
Gaea’s Blessing is still showing up, but I would recommend cutting it if you’re copying a list. Go for some more interaction of your type. If you really want to have something, I think going for the Emrakul/Shelldock package at least adds options for winning.
With March being as good as it was, Doomsday is going to have a big target on its head. Be prepared for mirrors with maindeck Sheoldred, lots of Archive and Mindbreak Traps. Aggro Shops isn’t in a good place, and that helps Doomsday a lot. Maybe an increase in that and Breach, along with some Esper Saga could spell some trouble for Doomsday.
