What made you decide to go so defense heavy? I see most of it is geared towards autoblocks and the like, but that's still pretty large for a multi deck.
Anyway, congratulations on the win.

I think mine was actually one of the smaller defenses at this tournament, magicians and Pharisees made appearances (I think someone was even playing Assyrians). I've always had the defense in this deck at about 6-8 cards, I didn't know that was considered "defense heavy" haha.
Foreign Wives and Uzzah are auto blocks (so is Scattered) while Manny is utility for Charms as well as banding to Damsel or auto-blocking with Uzzah if I can't discard an artifact. Damsel is there just to draw and KoT I'm not sure why I still run as there's so many ways around him now (and neither version can play Scattered).

Was there a reason you didn't use Lampstand?
-
I find Lampstand so much less useful now that it doesn't protect from FA or Mayhem. I haven't been able to justify a slot for it in recent revisions.

It does protect from FA. It doesn't protect from VP.

Ah, that's what I meant sorry. Got my abbreviations mixed up when I was typing. :P
