Went 2-2 drop at a small TCG with this deck last night.
Lost to G/R Monsters
Won against Mono-Black
Won against Mono-Black
Lost to Junk
General thoughts, I haven't turned the side board for G/R monsters and what usually happens is that I just get an untenable board state and flooded with his creatures and its a race for damage which I can't win.
The black decks were just a card or two shy of the winning StarCity decks and you add that to the fact that sometimes you just don't draw the cards you need from your library. I went 2-0, 2-0 with quick wins against black. A nice turn around as I was starting to get a complex about playing black decks with hex (which has been a big achilles heal for me).
Lost 0-2 to Junk in the last game with Ajani, Mentor of Heroes putting him over the top. My life total ran up to 37 in that game and he ran Ajani up past eight but never ultimated, just keep stacking on the counters on with dragons until I was overwhelmed. He first three bombs I luckily dealt with from the timely draws of Selesnya charm which make instant speedy work of his big green creatures.
I thinking about swapping 2 Boros charms out for 2 Warleader's Helix. Despite the higher casting cost of reduced options it does give you the often much needed life gain as well as the ability to deal 4 to creature or player, the creature piece was need last night.
I would enjoy hearing feedback and I will continue to update my changes and results.
