Thoughts
Main Core: 56 cards Side Core: 9 cards
The league list is similar to what SingPanMan played for Eternal Weekend, which makes sense considering when they are pulled from. I'm not surprised he went back to Mystical Tutor.
Suspend is an interesting choice to deal with any creature for two turns. That can easily be enough to turn around the game. Plus, it can be pitched to Force of Will. Unfortunately it doesn't do anything about creatures that already got their value when they entered the battlefield.
