RIP Bowieshop (3rd/78 Darksphere Store Championship, London)

This deck went undefeated in the Darksphere London Store championship going 6-0 in Swiss and 2-0 in the cut. This deck just seemed to click for me and I was able to play it to its potential on 3 hours sleep. The name is of course a tribute to a great artist but I had also called it RIP Butchershop before his death because after February Butchershop will need to be thoroughly reworked.

So much has been written has been written on Butchershop and with the MWL coming into effect next month I am not going to do a full deck write-up. My only real variation on the theme is the two quandaries and two wraparounds allowing the early rush of an astro (or other agenda) behind a single gearcheck ice or a double ice remote early. The two archangels are there for a counter to plascrete, as I was not having much success with shattered remains.
