		<description><![CDATA[i&#039;m wondering how much ancient grudge was considered over naturalize.  i dont play a huge amount of block... so i&#039;m not overly familiar with sideboarding strategies... but what enchantments are we really afraid of here? 

-curse of death&#039;s hold (does the jund player still play this against a control matchup? especially one so obscure as RUG control?
-spectral flight - is this in fact the only enchant we&#039;re worried about in the UR stalker matchup?  

now the artifacts:
-grafdigger&#039;s cage - obv we cant kill the cage with any grudges already in the gy... but still
-witchbane orb
-cleaver/dagger

i can see the argument for both. and in the end, naturalize may be safer as it kills a wider range of spells... but with the amount of GY interaction, random milling and discard that this deck already instills, i&#039;d think grudge may be considered]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@Brandon: Yes! Probably the best card in block; moreso than Hellrider. :)

@MonKei: The synergy with Snapcaster, flashing back cards you hit with your Thought Scours.  And also just naturally hitting flashback spells. Also importantly, it&#039;s a one mana spell, which makes it easy to play it and something else to flip Huntmaster.]]></description>
