3-1 at a local, unsure of digs are better than jace still, like they weren't worse than jace in any situation, just in none of those I feel jace was really better then dig

I wouldn't expect much combo though, a rise in bug should be anticipated and hymn + daze is one of the most miserable things to play against for any combo deck not called dredge or elves

I've always felt rug was a positive match against anyone that wasn't intimately familiar with the deck, at which point it's even, sure sometimes they get ya with wasteland, but those are hands backed up with stiffle and daze and basics aren't saving you then. I would expect more bug delver than rug, if we look at the format pre-khans and now, the only difference is no treasure cruise, Sure we have dig but that slots well into BUGs more midrange/tap out strategy, which is great because BUG delver is a remarkably good MU

I'd play at least 2, there are just enough strong lands in the format (grove with punishing fire, karakas, and Gaea's cradles) that warrant an answer, course in the case of cradle it may be to late but nonetheless, you can't simply let them untap with that card

So here's what I slapped together 2 days ago to create a starting point for rebuilding the deck. Obviously will need to change some things around, but I think it's a fine starting point.

[deck]
Creatures - 14
4 Deathrite Shaman
2 Baleful Strix
4 Tarmogoyf
4 Shardless Agent

Instants - 14
4 Brainstorm
4 Abrupt Decay
4 Force of Will
2 Dig Through Time

Sorceries - 8
3 Hymn To Tourach
2 Thoughtseize
3 Ancestral Vision

Planeswalkers - 4
2 Liliana of the Veil
2 Jace, the Mind Sculptor

Land - 20
3 Verdant Catacombs
3 Polluted Delta
3 Misty Rainforest
3 Underground Sea
2 Tropical Island
2 Bayou
1 Creeping Tar Pit
1 Swamp
1 Island
1 Forest

Sideboard - 15
2 Grafdigger's Cage
2 Nihil Spellbomb
1 Disfigure
1 Spell Pierce
1 Flusterstorm
1 Umezawa's Jitte
1 Null Rod
1 Golgari Charm
1 Pernicious Deed
1 Toxic Deluge
1 Maelstrom Pulse
1 Notion Thief
1 Massacre
[/deck]

I'm expecting people to try to shove Worldgorger back in Reanimator and also TPS and Sneak + Show to make a come-back.
think I would just play another Underground Sea over the island

There are maybe 1-2 people in my meta that play reanimator as a large majority of the people either a) do not own the deck, b) think the deck is awful or both, and of those 2, I can never really be sure what one is on (dude owns literally everything...in foil as well), and the other sometimes plays (although he is almost assuredly on reanimator), I'm more worried about burn but honestly there isn't much to be done about that MU so I just suck it up and move on

I anticipate more BUG Variants and Miracles in my meta, combo has never been popular (although for larger events I'd take the Meddling Mage package), I like 4 FOW as it allows me to tap out and still have countermagic ready, given Shardless is now the only deck in the meta with a draw 3 effect, aggressively using force is fine, and I even tend to keep it in fair MUs when people don't expect it, especially in the Miracles MU.

Although with no Jace, 2 Needle in the board maybe better than 1 Null Rod/1 WhateverIcutforNeedle2....then again I don't have japaense pithing needles and I do have a japanese null rod

I tend to forget about Baleful Strix when I draw up lists for this deck, I also began cutting it as I really like Toxic Deluge/Golgari Charm in this deck.

I think I've always played 3 lily in this deck and has been fine, never really felt I should go to 2 nor go to 4, I want her in any fair match up, and even against unfair decks, while not the best, turn 2 lily is remarkably solid, nevermind chaining them together for insane value

Wanted to try Dig over Jace. I've only ever felt jace was good in this deck when I'm either even or ahead of my opponent, where as (in my experience) dig is never really bad if you resolve it, may just be jace is better but eh. Also being able to hit my sideboard cards postboard with dig (when I resolve it, I'd be amazed if I don't see one in the 7 cards I look at) when I need to seems good.

3 Hymn/ 2 Thoughtseize: Buddy of mine tried it and said it was great so I wanted to give it a try, also every time I've lost in the mirror, that person was using that exact configuration and I tire of losing the mirror (which I imagine I'm going to run into more)

rest is pretty self explanitory
