Thoughts
Look at Tsubasa_Cat's spicy little Lurrus list. Dauthi Voidwalker is always a fun one that can become a Force of Will if you time things correctly. Frog is also, well, the new Big And Powerful. Hence, all those Fatal Pushes. I dunno about that, though, because even though Frog is not great for us, I have had enough games where an Opposition Agent or Archon of Emeria hits the table, and here I am like a dumbass with my Fatal Pushes and no way to get Revolt. But I digest.
Taniguchi's White splash for Monastery Mentor and Balance is an old classic that has popped up from time to time.
Vampiric Tutor is still at low numbers in favor of Preordain. Pitches to Force™. I'm still finding enough games where I like the instant speed of the tutors to get me to my gameplan as soon as possible, but I get the logic of fighting against Lurrus's card engine by not playing topdeck tutors, as they are card disadvantage. But sometimes, you know, sometimes they just win you the game. Which, that's Vintage, baby.
