This was the prerelease I built several times. Unfortunately it looks like I didn't keep a deck list of the first two builds. But I do know from the Steven spreadsheet that they were B/G Saprolings with a sacrifice theme. And U/R wizards with a wizards theme. I was excited about BG and ended up utterly sucking. I think it tried to do too much. Too many moving pieces to compete with ValDickhead.  The wizards won because there were plenty of wizards. The payoffs weren't big, I was missing the great pieces to that deck but I think that's a mindset I need to get out of. Rarely do the great pieces of a deck being missing mean the deck is inviable.

Looking at my Green now though, there were some great cards here. I can see why it made sense to play it. Red Blue doesn't have the flash green and black do. I still don't quite know how that one did well. Maybe just that there were SO MAny wizards that when the few payoffs did come down (Adeliz, Firefist Adept) they made big splashes?

The Rona deck is the last version I played against Steven and I don't think it lost more than one game, if any.

I think my challenge is finding the OK to Good level cards that can back up the great ones. I can spot the great cards. And they entice me to play them. But I think the theme here in these notes is that I'm often looking to maximize the number of great cards I can play. Whereas the Rona deck got its power from card draw. Don't try to get every good card you can into the deck. Put the good cards in, then make sure you can play them. In this case, it was put in the eldest reborns and the rite of belzenloc and then three copies of Divination. Having Rona seemed less effective than I expected but she still revealed a lot of my deck and gave me access to part of my graveyard which was easily filled. Basically giving me access to more of my deck, making it way more likely to cast the big cards. Even though Divination doesn't do anything (Divination is not a CAB card) Diligent excavator doesn't do much. This is the same thing that happened with M19. Basically, if your strong cards are strong but few. Support them with Blue.
