    I've gotta say ... I'm really surprised, but this deck is pretty good. There IS a mildly steep learning curve, but I'd say by my 3rd/4th match on MWS I was winning games 2/1. Sometimes, though, you get hands that you seriously can't keep.
    I've been experimenting with the 4 Nightcreep in main/no Pacts. It's ... worse. Birds is like whoa. I'm wondering, though, if you can play it at thier EoT after the EoT trigger, but before the next turn, and then it just stays that way throughout your turn without you paying the black?
    Also ... yes, you need a Bloom out to use it, which makes the usefulness a bit down. I can see that I need more testing before changing the deck [Lost Hours is really bothering me, but for now I'll just trust it], but I've played [only] 3 matches: 1 against B/R Discard[a HORRIBLE matchup, but the deck isn't a Regionals deck ... yay turn 1 blackmail, turn 2 fall, and turn 3 fall for all my key cards, and no Bliss in sight!], 1 against random G/B Rock with Gleancrawler/Sliver combo [probably would've lost if he didn't focus on getting his life total higher ... and I kinda killed him with his own Arenas, so.], and 1 against random GU aggro with Force [I think I lost a game to double Trickbind, though I won the match. He liked Remanding my Bloom. A LOT.]
    Infernal Tutor is cool though. One of the games I stalled out for a bit, so I went tutor for tutor 3 times and Grapeshot for 7 to the face with a Swath in play. :p

    I agree that a 4cc 4/4 that is searchable with the house guard is very useful in the deck. I also agree that a few orzhov signets could be useful for producing some mana acceleration. What do you suggeste should be taken out to put the signets in?

    Much of the metagame in my area is RG or RGW or RW aggro, so I tried to put together a deck that easily can stand up against the aggro and has a consistent method of winning the game. Here goes...

    I brought good old generic MUC to the Midwest regionals in Chicago and hoped for the best. The day did not start off so well, after 4 rounds I was a disappointing 0-3-1. I firmly decided to play it out even though I really hated the deck at that time. I ended up winning 5 straight matches and ending the day with a 5-3-1 record. My final position was 67th out of 361 people. It was a big improvement for me from last year, when I brought Goblin Bidding and went 3-5.

    There will Not be any tounament packs for Saviors. When you look at the final image, it says "booster packs" not tournament packs.
