Notes
 
This is a more controlling, more grindy version of Stoneblade. Unlike the more traditional True-Name Nemesis lists, this deck is able to respond to disruption with more resilience and generally great at using Cabal Therapy. It's not clear if this is actually a better deck, however.

Interesting interactions:
- Baleful Strix+Cabal Therapy+Academy Ruins
- Monastery Mentor+Zealous Persection
- Dig Through Time+a zillion cantrips
- Postboard, Enlightened Tutor+the many, many one-ofs

Possible changes:
- Add a land to the maindeck (probably one Marsh Flats)
- Add a Jace to the maindeck
- Cut the maindeck Zealous Persecution for something else that can be pitched to Force of Will- likely a Spell Pierce or Baleful Strix
- Go 3/3 on Stoneforge Mystic/Monastery Mentor rather than the 2/4 split currently shown
