I’m curious to see Glogowski playing Jund again. He maindecks 2 Massacre Girls, 4 Agonizing Remorse, 3 Thrashing Brontodons. Also no more Casualties, which breaks his mirror. Since he’s the only Jund facing Red, Azorius and Fires, it seems like a good call to me.
I don’t understand Liliana and Bontu (nice finisher with Mayhem devil I know), does it have to do with Reclamation somehow?
Lili for Dream Trawler
On one hand I really want Mengu to do well because I voted for him, but if he wins Mono Red is going to flood the ladder.
Mono Red mirrors can get pretty mundane because the matchup is pretty heavily affected by who wins the coin toss.
But Red mirrors are over soon. I hope we won’t have to sit through PVDDR vs. Ondrej Strasky..
where is Brad Nelson ? No fun without him
