It's very rare that you actually traverse for a GCR and pretty much every time you have a GCR, it would be better to just be a TBR. This was already heavily debated.
Yeah, grixis being able to dig for hate cards and the delve threats being outside of push territory are just better for the new meta. This is still a strong deck, but not as good in the meta.
White splash is great if you have a midrange meta. Goyfs are kind of the reason you go jund. Flayer is a good card, but not a good replacement for goyfs. If you can't get them, I'd stick to grixis honestly.
It's only slightly lower probability of having 2 in your opener and helps a little to not hit them as often late game. Which usually sucks. I like dropping to 3 IoK
Went to a modern game day today. Went undefeated going into the top 8.
Round 1, 2-1 vs trondrazi
Hand hate and big dudes took me to the gold.
Round 2, 2-1 vs dredge.
Got lucky and he had to mull to 3 game 1, game 2 he had the nuts, game 3 he misplayed and tried to conflag my 2/3 goof and grew it to a 4/5 in the process while I got my beats on with goof and shadow.
Round 3 and 4, Ad nauseum. 4-0, The games played pretty similarly. Fast beats and hand hate. Drew the right half of my deck post board and won both game 2's through leylines.
Quarter finals vs Affinity while I was in the first seed. He nut drew, I lost. Game 2, I drew removal and beaters, beat him, game 3, kept a terminate, grudge, 3 lands a shadow and traverse. He had a fast hand with 3 ravagers, I lost.
I ran a pretty stock 75, but made room for 2 flayer mb. I loved them. They don't care about chump blockers and draw removal. They were all stars for me today.
The problem though is that dismember gets turned "off" and becomes a 3 mana removal a lot in this deck. When it's good, it's great, but when it's bad, it's really really bad.
