Thoughts
Alright, I'll play Leyline of the Void. I had a few matches where it would have won me the game, and I found I have been over-sideboarding with Surgical Extraction and Dauthi Voidwalker. So, there you go. Watch your sideboard.
To which we see little changes this week. Lots of people going back to Vampiric Tutor in the main. It's a judgment call. How many games do you want to be pre-sideboarded for Lurrus? It's your call to make.
You'll have to pry that Misdirection out of my old-man hands, though. Seems to be the same with discoverN's Spreading Seas. There's very few bits of spice as of late, but ScreenwriterNY's Lórien Revealed is a very curious choice. It does help with the double Delve spells that Doomsday seems to be all in on right now.
