		<description><![CDATA[Thanks for the feedback...

securityanalyst- The idea with Reaping the Graves is that they can&#039;t fight it effectively with counter-magic, so you can set up a turn in the late game where you bring back your whole graveyard and there&#039;s not much they can do about it. Having said that, I&#039;ve had kind of mixed results with it, so that&#039;s definitely a spot you could consider tinkering with.

Doctor Anime- The Dross Golems aren&#039;t just COP defense, they&#039;re also a solid card that can come in for various matchups where you have cards in the maindeck you want to take out. As you can see in my sideboarding plans, I bring in the full four in several matchups and I&#039;ve been pretty happy with them.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I like the list, it&#039;s a solid update. Some nitpicks though: as the above poster said, reaping the graves looks weaker than the alternatives. I also never found 4x Dross Golem to be necessary in previous metas that ran COP:B, even less so when they&#039;re hardly around. 3x is the maximum you&#039;d need.]]></description>
