Thoughts

Don't like that we can only run one copy of Necropotence? Put some copies of Necrodominance in the side! That's a curious thing to try. Possibly decent in some matchups, but I'm not eager to try it out. That said, if you do? I'd keep a copy of Sheoldred, the Apocalypse in the side. That's a juicy combo.

That all said, there were no high-ranking Doomsday lists this week, despite there being a similar number of lists to weeks past. The cycle continues.

Maybe try Barrowgoyf?
