OP – I feel like this deck tries assuming the role of a control deck somewhere inbetween Cloudpost and Classic Delver. So in theory it will lose to Cloudpost and beat Classic Delver. It has the same problems against combo decks that Cloudpost does, but doesn’t have the quick clock of Classic Delver to try and pressure them.

As a note to why this is relevant: According to my own numbers, 46% of the matches I’ve played in 24 daily events during the past 2 months are against combo decks. This includes different varieties of Storm as well as Infect and GW Hexproof.

Also, I did enjoy seeing myself on camera. :-) Thanks for the content!

If the capsize gets binned he doesn’t have too many outs to the game. Also in your last turn you should definitely have played both other curses; he didnt have mana to bounce all of them and you would still have had mana for your counterspell.

This loop can also build mana to obscene levels besides adding rolling thunder not really sure how to take advantage of all the mana

I feel like this is a combo deck more than a control deck though.
