Discard usually don't have that many spells.
Besides, let's say you somehow discard his first 7 spells, then how do you deal with the 30 other burncards left ?

So no echoing truth ?

Sigiled skink is a decent aggro that gives you scry.

Also hooray, I've reached my post number 2.000 :)

Echoing truth, deals with creature-counters, kiki-jikki swarms, and bounces stuff in general. With one legacy deck being gyruda and many clones driven by lions eye diamond you will need echoing truth to deal with them before the attack. You also need a reshuffle/anti-mill card against that, though lions eye diamond will shortly be banned as wotc wants to keep companions in the meta.

Martyr of ashes is one commoncard I've used in decks like this before.
Dead // gone kills or bounces their critter.
I can also recommend seal of fire which makes people freeze for some turns if they play goblins/elves/merfolk.

Start with a general brainstorming trying to cover it all, then test out different mixes.

Why not put 1 lurrus in sb as the 8th card in hand?

Sage of Epityr enables you to change gears against most decktypes if you have an adaptive design.

Cards that does something and then scry are usually a start at learning how to have everything fulfill several tasks. (Sage is both tempo and a chump blocker.

You got to make sure you have at least 4 cards against any archetype you might face.
(Dredge, storm, aggro, affinity)

So spreading seas to target valakut/eldrasi temple.

Faerie macabre is perhaps the best hatred against reanimated and it doesn't bother with color if you only have it for that purpose.

The key to win will obviously be to make sure that all 4 things happen as fast as possible.
You could use discard animals to get one in the grave, and they could double for defence.
Tutor's a thing too (idylic tutor), to get your hands on the one to play.
The most problematic of them all is the one headed for exile.

Angelic purge or banishing light might be good. (Banishing light can also protect you)
Claw of gix could help you placing a hedron in the grave or release a hedron by sacrificing banishing light.

Playing with discard and leyline of sanctity might also help. (You can target yourself with discard)

Faerie macabre.

Heh,
You said bake the cats ;)
"Baked cats on the table"
Could be a brilliant deckname :)

I know the feeling.
I often get told how I can't use math and statistics my way, but the results speak for themselves at tournaments.

The tag stupid? Must have been my phone that autocorrected lurrus into stupid, even though it's different letters ?

Ah,
You meant the tag stupid for serious. Well planestalker and you seems equal..

Seems more like you move against the words of the wicked!
Such denial, what rebuff!

Glint-nest crane.

With that many companion decks you have no rights to ride that horse.
Search for the tag companion and the search result almost breaks down and cries alfred :p

Still, the absence of a non-lurrus user is thought provoking. Theres always someone who moves against the stream.

Think this could resurface with lurrus as a defensive card ?

I've spent some time looking at new decks.
Since companions are in almost 90% of the lists it shows an enormous interest in them.
Since lurrus is in the majority of them, it raises the question where the lurrus-less decks are hidden.

This early in the analysis of the cards impact most of the online community is claiming it to be bandwagon,
But I must admit that at least 1 or two decks without companions should be surfacing, because frankly not everyone uses new tech that fast.

I'm intrigued.

Companions.
Do they win because they are good, or because everyone's trying them out?

In other countries ;)
Like danmark is denmark or dinamarka.
Some other country took control of your country name ;)

No problem
