Thoughts

Tinker Doomsday has yet to catch on. Copy/Past meta.
Okay, I'll stop making jokes. I know some people are having results, and most do better than me at Doomsday. I just like to tease. If you know me, you know I'm a lovable guy. But I digest.
Very, very samey main lists this week.　Everyone agreeing on Duress feels a bit rare. Mystical Dispute making a comeback is interesting. Being able to snag a Hullbreacher as well as the standard array of Blue spells is nice as we continue this Blue The One Ring meta.
Sideboards are quite diversive, though, as sixmp decided to skip Steel Sabotage for Hurkyl's Recall and CrazyDiamond513 is not playing Leyline of the Void.
I've run the 2 Surgical Extraction package before. It does work, and feels like it has legs against other decks – but you must be careful about oversideboarding Surigcal Extraction. It is so tempting. Pithing Needle is similar. There are places you might want it, but remember the goal: Cast Doomsday and win.
Orcish Bowmasters being the most common creature this week may look surprising, but CrazyDiamond513 has also been on a tear. I quite like the Orcs. They can do a number on Bazaar based strategies, as well as simply give two blockers for two mana. Sometimes that is all you need.
