After making progress all season and getting three ticks away from Diamond my deck suddenly gave out on me and I'm in a total free fall. I've gone 1 for 11 and basically think ranking up this season isn't going to happen. I'm not that invested in ranking up, I just don't understand what happened. Tilt is starting to become a factor, but it's more than that.
Don't say play a tier 1 deck. I like this deck and think it's fun to grind with, but this skid is terrible. I've been tweaking the list in response, but it's not helping:
▪️ I had 2-3 copies of Shelly in there but it wasn't making any impact.
▪️ Mostly I think I've struggled with the removal package. I was running Rite of Oblivion, but that's when the slide started and sacing my auras wasn't providing the benefits I hoped for. March replaced it but it's also a 2-for-1 situation most of the time.
▪️ I was also running a few copies of Return Triumphant but noticed more exile in the meta and it wasn't paying off.
▪️ I also had a copy or two of Witch's Vanity, but it also wasn't consistent.
▪️ Clawing Torment is an obvious cut but I like the clock and it stalls attacks with Eriette out.
▪️ Invasion of Theros is back after being out for a while.
The deck has been decent against Mono Red, okay against Azorious control and Blue Mill, but cannot win against the domain ramp decks. What am I doing wrong?
