ATS isn't very good, as the Legacy GPs proved. If you want to play Survival you have to combine it with Cabal Therapy, and generally Duress as well.

ATS is outdated and folds to a resolved Needle, RecSur is better but still not great. The most accepted Survival build is RG Survival Advantage and it's seriously killer if built right. Also it doen't scoop to a Needle.

some of your lands are questionable, trust me when i say your lands NEED to stay in play. also, after MUCH testing, i think 2 recurrings is correct. with tutors of course. rector, e-tutor
