Seriously, for the amount of money this deck costs, it doesn’t matter what it does! But luckily, what it does is cool! Matt Higgs puts together a new archetype that tries to get maximum mileage out of Aether Revolt!

Jim Davis almost did it last weekend. He almost claimed the glory of a week one top 8 in a field of decks he had under his foot from the word go. But a top 16 will have to do. With SCG Richmond just days away, Jim, how good does it feel to be playing a traditional two-color control deck?
