How much work does ride down do, in the current expected Abzan meta is it good enough for the main? Been out of constructed Magic for a few months, this might be the deck that gets me back in.

Hey Zem, I noticed on some of your reddit replies you're keeping the developments of the deck mostly confined to DtR. Do you prefer less information getting out there for now, realized it could possibly influence any live events you're doing if people know what's coming.

I think I'll be moving into the Zem approved sideboard.

@surlock Kragma Butcher doesn't fill the role that the Firstblade is trying to perform; namely as a sideboard option against UW control decks when they're tapped out or likely to have no answer, getting in for 4 damage.

Starcity versus video on the premium side with Brad Nelson playing his Boros Burn variant. Todd Anderson is an ass, and Satyr Firedancer is a house. Running 4x Phoenix, 4x Ash Zealot main along with Chains and burn. Sideboarding out Ash for Satyr Firedancer in the creature matchups.
