Ok, so big tournament in Sheboygan at one of the game stores. Any changes? Kinda want to win
I know I've said this before and you said because you haven't found one yet, but  {Signal Pest} > {Myr Moonvessel}.

{Thoughtcast}, while being on theme, seems moapy. Also not a huge fan of {Reality Shift} or  {Lotus Petal}.

Recommendations: maybe {Wild Cantor} Over lotus petal? Other cards that have been working well in my deck to maybe try out: {Shaman of the Great Hunt}, {Faerie Mechanist} (Might have missed it, idk), and {Gruul Ragebeast}.

Hope this helps and good luck on the tournament!
I liked mechanist. That was fun. And thought cast is 1 mans draw to cards. Petal does not require mana to play which is why it's good. Does shaman really work? I feel like he's eat removal too fast. Ragebeast I had tried back when i first started building the deck. I found that more often than not I was throwing my little guys at my opponent's big guys because that's all they had.
Sometimes shaman eats removal yes, but whenever he doesn't he pumps your team, and whenever I activate him I usually draw from 4-8+ cards. I tend to find that at a certain point, I have nothing to do with my mana, and he's a nice mana sink
Fair enough I guess
How'd that tourny go?

Pretty well. Had to drop before round three due to a family issues

Was just looking at that. That is really the only thing I saw that deserved a spot. I liked reclusive artificiar but I thought he was too week to work. The 6 drop find a 3 drop seems pretty great too

Munchlax

And also that double x cost guy

Agreed. And yeah playing that 6 drop to find something like fierce impath or that 3 mana lord seems solid

Also, the whirler rogue actually seems good to me. Makig animar unblockable seems insane

I like finding Fauna Shaman more. And bellowed can only grab green creatures

My main issue with whirled rouge is the double blue. In the double blue slot I currently have V Clique which gets rid of board wipes or cycle non creatures in my own hand. Yes the unblock able seems good but I personally prefer hitting critical mass into an alpha strike. Either that or swinging in with Animar with trample. The deck cares a lot less about getting through than it does full out aggroing them down in 2-3 turns. I don't think shirker rouge fits the bill. I will definitely test it but I don't personally think it is better than v clique in the double blue slot

They just came out with a 2 and 1 red, 1/3 when it enters creates a 1/1 thopter, and gives your artifact creatures haste.

I saw him. However I didn't really like him a whole lot either. My creatures don't need haste. If I combo off my general gets big and has trample and I have a big Craterhoof and all my Artifacts are indestructible anyway. It gets pretty hard for me not to win

 {Reclusive Artificer} looks like it could be lethal.
(Nvm, too excited. Target creature)

However:  {Chief of the Foundry} is nice no?
And although already mentioned as XXguy:  {Hangarback Walker}.
