Shape Anew 75 cards, 15 sideboard 11 {Plains} 9 {Island} 4 {Glacial Fortress} 24 lands 3 {Blade Splicer} 2 {Blightsteel Colossus} 4 {Snapcaster Mage} 9 creatures 4 {Shape Anew} 4 {Master's Call} 1 {Venser, the Sojourner} 2 {Gideon Jura} 2 {Timely Reinforcements} 4 {Day of Judgment} 3 {Oblivion Ring} 3 {Ponder} 4 {Mana Leak} 27 other spells Sideboard 4 {Revoke Existence} 2 {Nevermore} 2 {Negate} 2 {Dissipate} 1 {Surgical Extraction} 4 {Gut Shot} 15 sideboard cards

I think with the lake of heavy control decks in my meta that a powerful combo deck may have good standings.

It's hard for even the delver decks to deal with a turn 4 blightsteel turn 5 day of judgment swing for 11 infect.

There is still a issue with drawing into a blighty but I think with only two in deck you shouldnt see both of them before you shape anew for the other one.
I May try Merfolk looter but I think it will be fine with out it.

Let me know what you think.

Someone posted a {Shape Anew} deck with {Precursor Golem}.  I thought that was a good idea.  It'd need other support though.  Like this idea though.

A) ease up on the expletives, let's try to keep it PG - 13.  😌
B) {Blade Slicer} Golem beat down.

I may be out of the realm of standard decks but how many people actually run {surgical extraction}? I don't know many people who do

I know a lot of people running it, or side boarding it. There's a reason why it's a 6 almost 7 dollar card.
Not to put your deck down but the shape anew was played out before 2012. You might surprise someone with a first game win but after that they know your strategy and it's pretty easy to counteract your deck, especially with all the artifact removal.

Depends on Local Meta.
