There's two conflicting feelings I have between (1) my love for innovation and most things Spanish and (2) how poorly constructed this deck is. For starters:
1) The manabase is inadequate in terms of overall count, blue sources, no basics and inability to fetch black.
2) There aren't enough grave enablers. More intuitions, frantic search, compulsion or maybe quiet spec (never played this card) are needed.
3) The overall curve of the deck seemed wierd, and yes, curve matters even for T1 decks.
4) I really don't know what you're doing with Zuran Orb and Fastbond. There isn't enough tutoring to pull this off.
5) I tested a list rather similar to this last year before GenCon; Ancient Grudge (in a vacuum) does not help you against Vault/Key.

I've been constantly reading this forum for a long time. But this is the kind comment why i cannot take this community seriously anymore. There is a big lack of creativity. Seriously, you are discussing the same old standard builds for years. And nothing else. Even if the deck performs extremely well in Europe (I'm not talking only of this particular deck), one comes to the following conclusion after the first glance: Meh, the manabase and overall curve of this deck is completely different from my standard Tess build, so this must be rubbish. Saying that a deck which is performing not too badly, is poorly constructed without even playtesting it, reveals a lack of respect.
