A lot of misses in this one and im just a few minutes in, gonna try to give a bit of constructive advice to help out. I think you for sure had that game in the bag with different choices. But as you said when sideboarding you dont really play the deck so it’s tough to make all correct decisions on the spot :) For the mulligan: gotta think with every hand, what’s my plan here? If you already have 2 lands, a lotus field and a twiddle effect you for sure want to keep wish in hand instead of preordain. Preordain wants to find you the kill, which wish is already there for. Keeping wish opens up to all draws being good - drawing either more cantrips to look for twiddle effects or simply twiddles to kill with wish+breach. Drawing a breach with wish in hand setups for some easy low-resource kills, as well does drawing another wish. You can also counter lotus trigger with consign, which is free vs necro, so you probably dont want to bottom that with preordain. You can also use temple to untap lotus field in response to the trigger, which would make you able to play ring with just a dreams grip, draw card and protect vs discard. That can lead to many outs for next turn even with bowmaster in play. You also drew another ring which would get protection once again and you would have had atleast 2 more twiddle effects and had enough life to take bowmaster damage from first ring. Keep grinding, the deck is not easy until you get used to all lines.
I appreciate that feedback! This was literally the first time playing the deck and there’s so many lines. I typically don’t play decks like this as I’m far from the best player haha. But I like to challenge myself none the less. Thanks for watching and again for the great feedback!
