There's not really much for us here, so Traumatic Visions I guess. I'm not terribly excited about it, but fixing is fixing.

Fixing is the priority. Traumatic Visions.

Visions is fine.

I remember a pro commenting that anything he ever wants to counter in limited is late-game bombs. Visions does that nicely, and cycles for fixing if needed.

Vectis Agents seems fine here.

A) Visions was a good pick. I love the design of that card.
B) Agents.

Don't we have enough five-drops? I think Worldly Counsel should at least be in the discussion.

We have 3 5-drops, 4 if you count Visions (I don't). Looking at our mana, Agents is a strict upgrade to Reaver, so there's that. Counsel looks bad to me.

I'm not saying that Counsel is the pick, but we should be talking about it because instant-speed card selection is good. This will be Sleight of Hand or better at our opponent's end step.

Maybe I'm just thinking with my constructed brain.
