I can’t figure out how to relyably win with similar deck.
It gets completely obliterated by green/blue, which seems to be very popular.
The opponent drops willow + gabrian, and suddenly he has 7/7 which can annihilate 2 of your creatures (more if he drops another buff on it), while completely blocking the orb from haste attacks. If you move / last nightmare it, he then proceeds to drop 2 more taunt creatures.

Just now played vs red - the opponent use Seifer + 2 buffed Grim Guards. I managed to clear one + Seifer, took like 6 cards to do that. Meanwhile the opponent was collecting at 2 wells. All haste creatures ended up being pretty much a dead weight since only once I was able to get to the orb before being fucked by taunts.

My reply is a bit late, but here it goes anyways :slight_smile:

Willow + Enchantment requires 4 lands and good draws, so it shouldn’t immediately stop you in your tracks. A lot of people also drop their willows early without enchanting, which you should capitalize on with choking sands. I actually don’t run last nightmare, because of the high costs and mostly bad trades. Death touch and Shaytan Demon’s + Soul Drain (preemptively against Seifer) are imo much more effective.

On a sidenote in my current y rush deck I replaced an air elemental with Doomsday. Usually play it, if i the enemy overcommits Faeria + I have a haste and prayer on hand.

Yellow cheese. Can’t stand it! Why do people feel the need to cheat their way to the top, be original man.

For original - this is currently my favorite deck to play:
