I've seen the addition of Resto before, but I honestly don't see what it brings to the deck. First and foremost here are only 3 targets, despite that the card is powerful on its own, but I also don't see which negative matchups it helps. Maybe i'm wrong, results would certainly suggest so.
Rest of the list looks streamlined and sweet, and yeah, you're probably right about shoving Iona (maybe just an Elesh Norn instead?) in the board.
There's recently been a shift at my LGS in which there is such an overwhelming presence of UW and UWr control that I honestly should just switch to a different deck to succeed. But being stubborn I decided I'd switch up the list a little to the point where it might have a fighting chance in the matchup. It's very possible that this version is just trying to do too many things for it to function properly. Not entirely sure. A notable exclusion is my dropping lingering souls. Honestly, I love the card and cutting it is probably silly, but I figure there's no need for extra grind power, and I guess I have to sacrifice something to make room for a reanimation package. Might be the wrong sacrifice, though. I do however like the idea of the reanimation package, as it gives standard Abzan a much better matchup against any Midrange or Control matchups in the format.
If i'm being entirely honest, I just find the concept incredibly sweet and would love for it to work. Anyone got any input for changes that you'd make?
My apologies if this doesn't entirely belong in this forum, as it is a deviation from the standard abzan rock lists. If that is the case, give me a heads up and i'll delete the post promptly
