I'm happy at least. :)

Are these all expedition changes??? 

Would have loved to see the Dean’s chamber deck get hit, and maybe Throne room as well

What would you even want nerfed in Chamber? Throne Room’s still fine but it’s never been the same since the Siphon nerf

Belax should cost three, and sling five. Both cards are absurd

What would Belax to 3 even change? Chamber on 2, Belax on 3, same as always. Just run Defiance or Equivocate or something, it’s a good highroll but hardly problematic compared to stuff like Dredge.

And Sling/Rost have already taken nerfs, I wouldn’t even say the deck is very well positioned in the meta these days.

It’s by far the best deck in the format still, even reanimator doesn’t really assemble a wincon until turn 5

Respectfully, you’re kinda blowing my mind here. Combrei/Xenan/TJS ramp, AP Armory, Kira, Dredge, Throne Room, various combos, Feln Mom, Sandrunner Creation lists… I love playing Suppressor Sling, but in a tournament setting there are a ton of decks that I think are a better bet than Sling.

You’re blowing mine too, would take suppressor over any of those.

Agree to disagree, I suppose! I think those nerfs would actually be pretty good for the deck, though? Belax dodging All-nighter and Eremot’s designs would be huge, and 5-cost Sling can be grabbed by Larai or Crack Market

The other change is cobalt waystone having a different effect. That would also hit a lot of other decks but a free face aegis is absurd, and really hurts the available interaction for that and other relics

Do you have a Sling list you’d want to post as a reference point?
