I have to say: I love this deck.
I've played a few matches with this version now on MTGO and in paper and everything just feels right!
Combined score on MTGO and yesterday's FNM is now 13-4, so not bad at all.
The only two things I changed since my last post is cutting one Prince for one more piece of interaction: Fateful Absence
(Bought it on MTGO as soon as it became legal and even drew one copy out of three boosters I bought before FNM :))
and cutting Elspeth for Maul of the Skyclaves. Two Planeswalkers are enough.
It's been a while so I uploaded a really sweet match against a Yorion deck that I played yesterday.
You can watch game 1 (part 1) here, game 1 (part 2) here and game 2 here. Enjoy
Wow, I haven't updated this thread for three months!
I am still playing my Brought Back build. Still loving it.
New additions are: Adeline (she's awesome!) and Master Warcraft (as a 1-of that can end the game on the spot like Elesh Norn).
This is the newest version in paper. I added Urza's Sagas after borrowing them on MTGO to try them out. They're making the deck even stronger. I think the current version is very competitive and only a few cards can/should be changed for preferential reasons. Portable Hole could also be a 3rd Path. Serra could be replaced with Elspeth or Cloudsteel Kirin...
The SB choices may seem odd, but they are tailored to my local game store.
Not much advise I can give you but I'd suggest getting all the same look. Like your Plains are different. If you get Thoughtseized then draw and play the Plains a crafty player will be like Humm. Tgats not the Plains they had in their hand. Yes, it's so minor but could make the difference. Even slightly increasing your percentages does help. .03 increase could determine a win or not.... other than that I'm about to go watch your videos and see what I can find for you bud
Not sure if all the STM online are the same. Would matter more than the Plains.
Edit: Nice looking match! Glad to see you still here pushing this deck forward.
I attached my most recent version below.
This is the best version so far. Played three leagues with it: 4-1, 3-2, 5-0.
Stomped over so many tier decks. Win rate for my last 20 matches in the practice room is 80 % as well.
It's been awhile my guy. So my update is I've finally gotten a computer and an account. Just waiting on Manatraders or Cardhoarder to approve me to start playing the deck. If you see someone named Trophy_Mage starting to place with it that's me. Lol.
Also congratulations on those nice finishes with the deck. How does it do since the meta shifted to 4 color control, Living End, Rhinos placing so well recently?

10-1 now with the current build. Can't complain
She'll be added in the CMC4 1-of-fun-of slot (currently rotating that slot between Resto Angel, Master Warcraft, Broodmoth, Phyrexian Metamorph).
Scavenging Ooze in white that can be tutored up with SFM! This might replace Batterskull main or be added to the SB.
Portable Hole will be sorted out. I'll play a combination of PtE and this, either 2-2 or 3-2 (cutting one other card as well).
Playing this deck is so much fun!
