Thoughts
Twenty-four copies of Flow State this week! Has Doomsday gotten a new card? I will say that after a league, it does pretty good at recovering from counter wars. As a 2-moxen deck, it was always hard to justify Stock Up. Like Stock Up, it is any order for the cards you put back, so this can matter for Demonic Consultation. Is four copies the right call? We shall see! But as I argued on my 5-0 stream, any good card for Doomsday is also usually a good card for UB Control, one of our hardest matchups.
