Dragon's Maze Gameday 1 : American (WUR) Flash

On the first day of the Dragon's Maze Gameday Weekend, I used the WUR flash version with 2 Aetherlings in the main deck.

I stayed with this build because I was more comfortable and I got used to playing WUR Flash in the past FNMs and the sheer power of Aetherling made this a good choice for me. An answered Aetherling can steal games for you, this is just an amazing win condition for control decks right now, I really suggest trying to use this card if you are running blue control.

In the current meta is Standard, I still think that running Supreme Verdicts and Sphinx's Revelation is still viable in the format. the sheer card advantage that these cards bring on the table still outweighs all the hate that people bring in for these cards. Although there might be certain matchups that you will need to sideboard out either of these cards, I think that whether or not you have these cards in you main deck, your opponent will still try to side in hate cards or cards that will try to work around them.

Here's the complete list.
