Hi Everyone!
I'm sure everyone has heard that the GP Miami finals featured nearly the same 75 cards in a mirror match. It wasn't anything monumental because the deck was basically a green devotion deck with a couple Fleecemane Lions and Mastry of the Unseen.
You can watch the youtube video of the match below but I warn you that it is very long and tedious to watch.
This looks like the new deck to beat. It has a great match against control because of Mastery of the Unseen and it has a great match vs the aggro decks because it's got Sylvan Caryatids and Fleecemane Lions to block until it can start turning up manifested creatures and gaining a bunch of life.
The thing that appears to be blatantly understated is the power of Temur Sabertooth in this deck.
If you watch the match from GP Miami you'll see that the "return a creature ability" is amazing because it can return a manifested creature. You can return a Nykthos or a face down spell you want to play. It can also return Polukranos and Genesis Hydra when they are face up. I can't say enough things about Temur Sabertooth in this deck.
I played with the deck a little and found that the one thing that broke stalemates and made the deck faster in a lot of situations was the sabertooth ability. I have been running 3 and I think that's too many. I think 2 is the right number of sabertooths because it's such a sweet card.
