Since Vintage FNM is now a thing, I play monthly about a 2.5hr drive away, when I can. Meta is about half Shops. I placed second last month with Grixis Pyromancer, but since TC is gone, I'm moving on.
61 Cards. Karsten likes it like that. I'll roll with it. Unsure if Dack Fayden should be a dig through time. Some choices are due to card availibility, I only have three Gifts so I'm playing a FOF instead. Also, I'd still only play with two mana drains even if I had more. I think he's wrong not to have more mental missteps, with all the 1CMC cards here.
If shops are that prevalent, you could even consider a main deck Ingot Chewer or two. Against the rest of the field, you can usually snipe a Mox or something.
Really glad to hear people are supporting Vintage via the new FNM.

Main deck dack fayden has been superb. Both lists contain that and a hurkyl's plus a chain of vapor in the gifts list. Fire//Ice is definitely a possibility.
Played gifts, went 2-2. Lost to BUG Oath and UR Delver. The delver loss I got manascrewed hard both games, it usually not a bad matchup. Beat MUD and Grixis control pretty easily. Wow, this deck is very mana-intensive, and I'm still learning the gift piles. Not an easy deck to play, I don't think its bad though.
