Had a great time with the New Tezz, Blightsteel and Steel Sabotage.  If I hadn't have left my Phyrexian Revokers at home, I would have had 8 or 9 MBS cards main deck.

Steel Sabotage was great, and using it to bounce a Battle Sphere after it was tinkered out was very nice.  In game two of round three, I attacked with Blightsteel, and was chumped by another artifact creature, Steel Sabotage bounced the creature and the trample was enough to win.

In order to find artifacts for Tezz, I ran two Engineered Explosives they are also great in this format right now.  Clearing out moxes, confidants, Oaths, or Sol Ring + Key, can really slow down your opponents development.  It also will dodge Sphere effects against MUD.  And also very relevant, it does not tap to blow up, so after becoming animated, it can bash, and still play defense.  EE on two, attacking each turn can prevent the opponent from using vault / key, Ratchet Bomb wouldn't be able to do this as it needs to be tapped to blow up.

Thank you for posting
any idea what the Bomberman Tendrils list looks like?

[ShamanBen]

The bomberman tendrils list was kind of a mess, Tony said he really didnt like having both strategies and decided to change it up to a drain tendrils list after the tournament. I am sure the list can be posted.

I am with Saspook here. The new Tezz was amazing to play with, made for some really fun games. Steel sabotage came in for me round one and in the finals, and I was happy to have the pair. I didnt use the blightsteel and there were games where it mattered that I had battlesphere.

Beaux had revokers in round one against me, they were a little annoying because they attack but didnt actually impact very much. I only ended up with three Besieged cards but I will definitely continue to have at least those three in my 75 for next time, maybe more.
