Run more Supreme Verdict. Also you don't really need that many creatures, Snapcaster Mage and AEtherling should do fine. If you want filter you could run Augur of Bolas or Jace, Architect of Thought. 2-3 Sphinx's Revelation is going to help you.

lol, yeah, my plan is to try and get a hold of more of the better cards friday at the shop. I will throw in what I can. The cyclonic rifts have playtested best in the sideboard so far.

They are handy, I don't run any in mine though. Just not a fan of the card. If you need ideas take a look at mine

Thanks! Normaly I play edh, thats why I don't have a lot of playsets of cards (and expensive cards that aren't great in edh are usually trade fodder...i.e. no Snapcasters).

No problem. I'm a big control player but I'll dabble into other deck types sometimes. Hope I helped out.

Well, its not Budget, but I still like it.
There ain't many workable America-decks.

Thanks! It may not look to be very budget, but I pulled all of the cards so it really didn't cost me much of anything to throw together.

Very well! I went 2-1 (better than usual).

Game #1: (Win) Naya Blitz 2-0
I had an answer for everything this guy could produce. Carried to the late game and swung out with Aetherling. Same with the second game.

Game #2: (Lost) Esper Control 1-2
Very interesting match, but this guy just had more money in his deck. Multiple Sphinx's Revelation won him game #1. Game #2 I eeked out a win with the Aetherlings. Game 3 he just ran me over again with the Revelations and his Obzedats.

Game #3: (Win) BRaggro 2-1
This deck was fast, really fast. I took the first match by control and glided to a very decisive victory using my Aetherlings. Game #2 I he used Slaughter Games to kill my hopes of using Aetherling and crushed me. Game#3 he slaughter Gamesed my Aetherling again, but a timely Sphinx's Revelation and a lot of control led to a win with my Skyknights.

Thanks for asking!

good. growing the game is important. if you have the cards,you might think about building an extra deck and invition some other people to play with you on FNM days, and encouraging others to do the same.
