Notes
-Keep the core components of the deck intact on the play
-The player on the play has a significant advantage, as the player who curves ou
t first has a high likelihood of winning.
-On the draw, you are forced to board in more answers and play a longer game (mo
re cards come in when on the draw)
-Bring in Hallowed Moonlight if opponent has Secure the Wastes, but otherwise it
's not worth it.

-Good for W/G Tokens
-Most players automatically board in all their board sweepers regardless of whet

ay
curving out should be good enough.

-Surviving the early turns.


-Against Bant Human Company, board in a Hallowed Moonlight over a Hangarback Wal
ker.

-Hangarback Walker is great on the play, you'll have time to level it and great
with Dromoka's Command. It's also great to have in play when you're casting a sw
eeper, but on the draw it's just too slow.

-Hangarback Walker plus Archangel Avacyn is great, but the cards are weak indivi
dually. Boarding them out is an option.
-Sideboarded games come down to sweepers and spot removal;
-Keep off Eldrazi Displacer
