I played this today to 3-1 at SCG Game Night. Beat UW Auras, Naya Dinos and UR Favorable Winds Pirates. Lost to Marionette Master/Revel in Riches.
Before last week (when I played SaffronOlive's BW Vampires list to a miserable 1-3 with a bye) I hadn't played Standard since RTR-THS. So I was sorta aware what I would face off but don't really know anything about the metagame or gameplay tells, so I decided to try something simple and agressive and was impressed by the performance and I liked this approach more than Monument because extra Radiant Destinies are awesome but extra Oketra's Monuments are not, and 2/2s with Lifelink and Vigilance beat 2/2s with just Vigilance.
I know the meta isn't settled yet but assuming stuff like Grixis Midrange, BG Journey and Mono Black Aggro become the norm, what cards should I be adding to my buylist in advance?
