Overall, I really loved playing it. Every turn felt like a puzzle, which was sweet.
I'm going to try and push this idea a bit further, both in legacy and vintage (where it seems absurd).
Initial changes I'd like to make are to add 1x painter, 1x grindstone. It might not be good enough, but I like the idea of an instant kill instead of just the ability to grind out with foundry.
I was unimpressed with probe+therapy, but I am unsure how to properly fill those slots. I think that at least one swords to plowshares might make the cut.
In vintage, this seems like a real gameplan that could be great in some form of grixis shell. Welder most likely involved.
