Ok there is no current "metagame" to speak of really since we have no DEs, but I was wondering what you guys thought about Suture Priest.

I haven't tested him but I think he would be really nice in a lot of matches.
He could be our lifegain (instead of Kabira Crossroads/Riftwatch/Missionary) in Burn.
He could be effective against some of the combo decks that are so hard for us to manage (Gond combo and more importantly the dreaded Familiar deck... maybe even Elves?)

From my experience, Tron is a hard matchup and what the commenters before me said hits the nail on the head. You can only beat Tron with WW if you come out of the gates quick and pressure them until they are dead.

Tron wants to get to its Marauders to gain back the lost life and prolong the game so they can outdraw you. They can either try to remove your threats with burn and slow you down enough or they draw into a quick Urzatron with fixing, artifacts and Marauders.

Attacking their artifact fixing will not help, since you don't play additional creatures in the round you kill artifacts and Kor Sanctifiers are too slow. Also flying and shadow creatures are very good, because they attack around Oracles and Marauders. With the following list I'm currently at 51 to 30 win rate in 2-mans and 8-mans. It implements these things and I'm confident against Tron. I have fought through multiple Marauder activations, Electrickeries and Rolling Thunders with this. But if there are two Marauders on the board turn 5 and you have no answer, you just lose. So my matchup against Tron is 3/3 right now. Also the MBC matchup (9/3) and Delver (9/6) are quite good.

Quote from Dromar the Banisher

Tron is just going to be a really tough opponent for White Weenie similar to how Post decks were as well and there's not a whole lot you can do about it. White Weenie isn't as fast as other aggro like Stompy or Goblins and gives these big mana decks too much time to set up and get to their superior endgame. Best you can really do is keep aggressive draws (ideally lots of low drops with a Bonesplitter) and hope they stumble a little bit. Don't be afraid to Journey a Mulldrifter or Sea-Gate Oracle either if it would let you get more damage through. Trying to save them for Crushers/Marauders isn't great if those other creatures are stopping you from attacking profitably in the first place.
