It was supposed to be, but due to the Customs Agency strike, Wizards’ and Decipher’s stuff are all still being held in São Paulo, as the working employees are giving priority to more important (or more profitable) stuff to come in... Bummer... Who knows when it’ll be now... And to think that Pre-Releases here used to be no more than one week later, when they were not on the same date... Having to import sucks... But as soon as the new date is set, I’ll post here. At least I got to enjoy my 3rd anniversary with my fiancée.  |

Nice. I’ll pretend like I don’t sense the multiple meanings of enjoy. 
Good luck whenever it is. Maybe it’ll be the same day as the release here (next Saturday) |

If you were going to play these colors, then I have a few comments.
Boreal centaur owns. Surging might is worth it even without multiples.
Good playing squall drifter. How many times did he win you a match? He won many for me.
Kjel. Warcry is questionable with only one copy. Jokulmorder is just bad. I doubt counterbalance was worth it. Krovikan Mist isn’t hot, either.. but rimewind taskmage is if you have enough snow. I wouldn’t play sphinx outside constructed, but tha’s just me.
If I were going to guess at your deck, I’d say you ended mana flooded a lot and having to swarm for the win, which can be difficult in limited.
Still, I think you made the right major choices, such as color... although I’m on the fence of dropping blue for red. Lightning Storm is a good finisher, especially with lots of mana, skred is rigged removal, karp. wolverine is nice, and I’d play rimerunner, thermopod, and maybe bloodpainter. Black would have worked, too, with deathmark, musher, chill, chilling shade, and rimebound dead.
EDIT: Play Boreal Griffin as well. He’s a beast in the air because he takes out opposing flyers. Ronom serpent, too, is great because if they don’t have snow lands they’re going to lose anyway. |
