Thoughts
Lurrus, specifically the Blue White variant, is causing quite some trouble for Doomsday. We're seeing Daze and Flusterstorm numbers rise, as well as a Dress Down truly becoming a staple. Some players are even suggesting three copies is the right choice in the 75, although no results are showing that yet.
