Would you all be so kind, to take a look over my deck list ..and any helpful advice is welcome! Just bought all the cards for this on paper, and tested it a bit on MTGO.
I now run 2 MB Leyline and 2 SB, due to the meta call and I really do like it. I just moved 1 Path to the SB, and took out my Gryff's Boon (was never really a fan of it).
I went 2-0 at my LGS last night (super competitive place to play) and started off well, without losing a game against Death's Shadow, or Infect.
Then got totally blown out against Esper Death's Shadow/Delver. Then lost my final game to Abzan, in which both of those last 2 rounds, I got beat down by Lingering Souls.
Safe to say, I put back my Night of Souls' Betrayal and Flaying Tendrills back into my SB. Not sure why I even took out my board wipes to begin with ..
I've also had Waste Not in my board for quite some time but haven't found with which decks I should board them in. Do you have any ideas? or have I just not faced any grixis control decks yet? Tron, maybe?
Here's a good Deck Tech with Tom Ross, which gives good explanation into what some of the 8 Rack SB cards are good for ..
Scrapped the 1 Leyline of the Void and Relics, for 2 Rest in Peace (I believe no SB should have anything less than a 3 of, of any Leyline - for opening hand reasons). Squeezed in the Night of Souls' Betrayal, by dropping my Surgical down to 2.

Yeah ..well Kolaghan's Command is brutal, and not to mention 4 Thoughtseize and 4 Inquisitions!
I would say, pretty bad ..but still always fun to play, and always under the radar. Tons of Death Shadow, so be ready!
That's something I would def recommend in the current meta, with the increase of Death's Shadow and Liliana kicking around.
I'm going to modify my MB, to fit in 2 Leyline of Sanctity.

Control, when you want card advantage.
