@ykpon: I don't know...I'm not that afraid of CBalance, but I want to kill those Leylines as soon as possible to start loaming. The 3cc-slot is kinda overcrowded too.

@gypsy: It does SOMETIMES...that is, if he can get a fast (up to third turn) CBalance + Top out, and has enough lands to use it in the face of Wastelands, and also has answers for Vore/Crusher/ Deed. Plus, there are some discard spells in the deck too...


Mini-Report: Aggro-Loam

1st round: Bye

2nd round: 4c Thresh
Game 1 he Swords two Goyfs and puts out a CBalance, but can't handle the Crusher and Vore that come down afterwards.
Game 2 I start Waste recursion turn two, but he gets down Top + Balance. He can't handle Crusher once again though.

3rd round: Ichorid
Game 1 he beats me like he should.
Game 2 and 3 Leyline beats him like it should (I got a bit lucky here), on Game 2 also protected by a Chalice @1 which leaves Echoing Truth as his only out.

4th round: BGw midgame
Game 1 he swords my first turn Confidant, but has nothing for the second turn Confidant. I draw some extra cards, and drop a Crusher + Vore that he can't handle.
Game 2 I side in Naturalize, expecting Leyline, but he plays Extirpate...I draw a bit too much lands and no threats, so he beats me down with a big Goyf.
Game 3 I go into Loam recursion and have too many threats for him to handle.

5th round: Rector Survival
Game 1 I have a good start that is stopped by his singleton Wretch eating three Loam and some lands...I try mana denial, but he gets double Wall of Roots out. When he plays Survival, I think I'm finished, but topdeck VERY luckily a Deed to kill Survival, Wretch, and Wall, and beat with Vore.
Game 2 he only gets two lands, one of which I waste.

6th round: Welder Survival
1st game: I snatch his Survival, and he doesn't have much else. I go into Loam recursion and eat his lands over the next turns while beating down.
2nd game: He gets a fast start - first turn Survival, third turn active Welder...
3rd game: I snatch his Survival, while he starts with Leyline out. It doesn't stop Confidant advantage though, and I draw into a Naturalize, then start recurring Wastelands and dropping big creatures.
