I've been rocking the challenge for the last couple hours. Two 7-1s, one 2-2 and one 1-2. Really enjoying the format, even if the format does contain variance (if your opponent sticks a Vivien against you in the Golgari mirror it's GG ore often than not).

My deck has changed quite a bit since you last saw it; I decided to cut the more aggressive elements of the deck (Charnel Troll/Pelt Collector/Gruesome Menagerie) and the support needed for those cards. Went with more value/removal.
Here's my current deck:

1 x Llanowar Elves
1 x Dead Weight

1 x Seeker's Squire
1 x Druid of the Cowl
1 x Kraul Harpooner
1 x Merfolk Branchwalker
1 x Thorn Lieutenant
1 x Cast Down
1 x Vicious Offering
1 x Assassin's Trophy

1 x Midnight Reaper
1 x Plaguecrafter
1 x District Guide
1 x Elvish Rejuvenator
1 x Reclamation Sage
1 x Jadelight Ranger
1 x Thrashing Brontodon
1 x Golden Demise
1 x Golgari Locket

1 x Status // Statue
1 x Ravenous Chupacabra
1 x Twillight Prophet
1 x Golgari Findbroker
1 x Price of Fame
1 x Ritual of Soot
1 x Vraska's Contempt
1 x Vraska, Golgari Queen
1 x Karn, Scion of Urza

1 x Doom Whisperer
1 x Underrealm Lich
1 x The Eldest Reborn
1 x Vivien Reid

1 x Find // Finality
1 x Carnage Tyrant
1 x Izoni, Thousand-Eyed
1 x Vraska, Relic Seeker

Lands(24):
1 x Memorial to Folly
7 x Swamp
1 x Memorial to Unity
8 x Forest
1 x Foul Orchard
1 x Golgari Guildgate
1 x Woodland Cemetery
1 x Overgrown Tomb
1 x Field of Ruin
1 x Arch of Orazca
1 x Evolving Wilds



Currently considering adding handhate (Duress, maybe Kitesail Freebooter) to make the control matchup a tad better; not sure what to cut though.

Magic's a simple game, 2 people take turns playing cards and in the end Divinevert wins 2-0...

I'm really liking the challenge. More to buy in but the rewards are substantially greater. I had around 22,000 gold anyway so it's been my goto last night to stroke my ego after the tournament round. I got another Tyrant out of the icrs and a few other really good ones I'm forgetting this morning.

Yeah, I've been loving the payout structure as well; add how Singleton lets you play fun cards that are just a little too weak for Standard otherwise and you have a recipe for an amazing event. Would love to see this more often.

I also realized how I am a terrible person for not giving credit where credit is due when posting my lists.
Huge shoutout to callmemaggit, whose list he posted here earlier was the backbone for my list. I ended up on quite some different individual card choices, but a lot of the crucial numbers (ramp cards, sweepers, lands, limit to 5+CMC cards) were taken from his list (As was the reminder how friggin good Twilight Prophet is in Singleton)

I posted the list earlier (didn't change), here's what it looks like in picture. Decided to move the lands to the left and add taplands to the 1-drops to fit every lad I'm running.

Shame this ends tomorrow. I've been mining a lot from this format. This has been pretty regular. I've netted around 3000 gold and a bunch of good cards from this. Will miss it till the next time around.

1 x Kraul Harpooner
1 x Saproling Migration
1 x Sporecrown Thallid

1 x Beast Whisperer
1 x Goreclaw, Terror of Qal Sisma
1 x Path of Discovery
1 x Spore Swarm
1 x Vine Mare
1 x Tendershoot Dryad
1 x Aggressive Mammoth
1 x Carnage Tyrant
1 x Pelakka Wurm
1 x Dead Weight
11 x Swamp
1 x Fungal Infection
1 x Vicious Offering
1 x Deathbloom Thallid
1 x Murder
1 x Ravenous Chupacabra
1 x Rite of Belzenlok
1 x Vraska's Contempt
1 x Twilight Prophet
1 x Doom Whisperer
1 x Slimefoot, the Stowaway
1 x Poison-Tip Archer
