Welcome back everyone! This past weekend Stream League eleven happened and I hosted it with TheOneJame. It was also sponsored by Coolstuffinc, so if you want to have an early look at some of the decks with Streets of New Capenna, check it out! Today I am showcasing a deck that Luca Boldrini used to slice up the competition and firmly place himself into top eight! It's a sweet Esper Walkers list, so I had to give it a whirl!
Let us go ahead and look at the decklist!

I've always been a fan of superfriend style of decks and this one is no different. I really enjoyed playing this deck and it definitely has legs. I like the non-reactive approach in aggressive creatures in Luminarch Aspirant and Tenacious Underdog, but it was strange not playing any board wipes in the main. I did add a couple Farewells to help with Naya Runes as those decks seems to still be a menace (the finals was Naya Runes vs Naya Runes.) I am very impressed with Raffine and what it does here, it is an evasive threat that also can filter so many cards! I'm enjoying this strategy and look forward to working on it going forward!
That's it for today, thanks for reading/watching!
