The deck looks pretty stout to me, reliable, and easy to drive into combo direction.
I don't know the current meta well, but doesn't Arasta of the Endless Web belong more to the sideboard? I'd of course keep playing that in the 60s on a best-of-one match though.

Its a 3/5 body, and if most of the aggro decks in the format try to remove it it'll still leave behind a blocker. Seems pretty good for the early game imo

Very good explanation.
Also it's a pretty nice card against Petty Theft // Brazen Borrower - which seems to be a part of every blue containing deck - because one tiny token can trade with it.

Of course I'm sure I've gone mad. The little man who crawled out of my eye was quite clear on this.

@Jigsaw You are right on both those accounts! Even though she's not standard legal anymore, it's still cool to imagine the havoc she would wreak! ;D

I've looked at this deck a couple times now - it really makes me wanna play it! Looks so good!
Have you played it though? Have you thought about adding some removal like Assassin's Trophy?

Thanks for the compliment! Glad you like it.
Currently, I am grinding Wildcards in MTGA so I can craft this deck (10 rare and 2 mythic to go!) So no, unfortunately I have not been able to play it yet. I have thought about adding removal like Assassin's Trophy and it's a good idea, but the deck's got to be Standard legal, so unfortunately that specific card can't go in. However, in later refinements I might find some of the slots more useful for cards such as Heartless Act and straight-up Murder, but for now I'm hoping that inscription of Ruin and Murderous Rider should be enough. Thanks for the suggestion!

There are currently 9 potential removal spells in the list (Inscription of Abundance, Inscription of Ruin and Murderous Rider // Swift End - 3 of each). I think that should be enough for now.  ;)

Edit:
Not to mention 4x Massacre Wurm and 3x Kaervek, the Spiteful which both can be considered removal for smaller creatures.

Oh, I had forgotten about Inscription of Abundance's fight mode! Thanks for that one. ;D
