Played the deck I posted to 2-1(conceded a draw) at FNM tonight with my controlling tokens build. Won 2 games against UB and Sultai with less then 5 cards left in my library. Was pretty sweet.
You gotta understand, I love the beatdown. I really do. I always have.
Beatdown is hard, though.

Jones hit 14th at the GP. Exactly 2 change.... he swapped the sideboard outpostsiege for a sideboard dig, and the treasurecruise for a 2nd soulfire.
Since g/w dev is gaining traction, a 2nd end hostilties is probably needed. devotion builds up too fast to rely on digs to save you. With all the enchantment hate going around I can see r/w falling off a little, so brimaz becomes worse. I'm gonna test Jones's new list with no brimaz, +1 end +1 abzan advantage.
4 v-stance in the 75 has been a real winner. It hits actually everything that you can't remove with strike/slash (except for the obv stormbreath but thats what makes sbd so strong). It's not awkward at all, mostly because it replaced hordeling outburst when we were already playing 8 other 3drops.

Citadel Siege seems neat. I wouldn't mind testing it, but I'm a fan of more burn plus two Outpost Siege between the main deck and sideboard. Watching LSV tear people up with his configuration has me wanting to test out a similar version.

He was playing Monastery Mentor instead of Rabblemaster. Each has their draws, but Rabblemaster is just so strong on its own. Monastery Mentor didn't actually impress me as much after watching his games. He did get to buy back a Treasure Cruise with Grand Master which was just beautiful.

3-1 tonight beat GR twice, Naya Aggro from GP (i think this matchup is tough for us) and lost to my test partner UB on a risky keep Game 3.
I was on a mull to 6, on the draw... this was my keep : shivan reef, 3 rabble masters, stormbreath, valours stance. I think it was an ok keep, what do you guys think?

The only way I keep that hand on the draw is if my only land is a scryland.

To quote PSully, with that logic, you'll never mulligan hands. "my opponent has thoughtseize, can't mull." "Have satyr wayfinder, 10 card hand" etc.Solid points. Was nervous about going to 5 against a deck with thoughseize, but it makes sense... I was hoping to live the dream.
Having said, that, I keep a LOT of loose hands, but they need a combination of a solid plan, and I guess you'd call it catchup potential vs. whiffs. Like, 1 scryland, wild slash+stuff on the draw is fine because you get to see an extra card, you have a piece of interaction and presumably the stuff you're keeping includes 2 mana cards that also interact to buy you time.
Another example was a 1-lander I kept with UB control weeks ago. It was scry, jeskai sage, and maybe a bile blight and a thoughtseize. Normally you can't keep 1 landers with control, but in this case it was fine because he was a temur controlish deck with caryatids and maindeck angers. The chance of him having a slowish start means I don't get punished, jeskai sage buys turns and gets me deeper in my deck, and it's not like I can beat knucklebade if he has it so that's irrelevant to any of my keeps.
You gotta understand, I love the beatdown. I really do. I always have.
Beatdown is hard, though.

Thunderbreak regent seems much worse then Ojutai's exemplars. Regent is more aggressive and linear which has merits in certain builds, but when you're playing sarkhan over stormbreath, your conceding that you want versatility of spells and Exemplars does all of the things.Now that the full set is spoiled I can say that I am less than impressed as to what this will do for our deck.

3 mana is overcosted raise the alarm. 4 mana is instant speed horedling outburst which is probably great. 5+ and you're generating virtual CA and will likely win the game if you untap with an ascendancy in play.

Jeskai Charm is one of those cards where you think it has a low impact but it's actually the best one-of. I won a race against Abzan Aggro in one game thanks to the lifelink clause, and I topped a Whisperwood Elemental for tempo against Abzan Midrange while ahead on board to win another.

24 lands seems right as does 2 dig. With exemplars, you want to keep the curve low. Exemplars is btw the NUT.
1 jeskai charm is the perfect number because it adds a unique effect that can win you otherwise unwinnable games and at it's worst, there are still plenty of spots where you can get good value out of it. Just always board it out vs. abzan.
I DO like the idea of 4 grandmasters.
Anticipate is something I thought about, but I think often times, it's just a waste of mana in this deck. I could be very wrong on that as it's a cheap enabler for examplars and you don't have to just burn a card for it.

I didn't say it was good, I was just curious why you thought it was bad against Abzan and green decks. I'm not a fan of the card personally, but being able to tap down fatties or having first strike seems decent against both Abzan and green decks, and blanking removal is going to be huge with Ultimate Price around. My concern with the card is the mana cost. It's a challenge to get value out of Monestary Mentor and it's only 3 cmc, it's going to be even worse for Exemplars. I'd sooner just fly over them with Ashcloud if I'm hellbent on playing a 4 drop.How is it good? How is it better than a stormbreath or sarkhan
I'm willing to be wrong though.
