Rakdos Scam1 Troll
1 Archon
3 Thoughtseize
1 Bitter		3 Leyline of the Void
2 Terminate
1 Sheoldred		Favored - While grief turn 1 is annoying, there's a lot of draws that just catch you back up immeadiately. Be mindful of Bowmasters/undying effects, you can usually play around them fairly easily.
4
Rhinos4 Orcish Bowmasters
1 Troll
3 Fatal Push		2 Chalice
2 EE
1 Thoughtseize
1 Hidetsugu
1 Sheoldred
2 Terminate		Favored - Thoughtseize cascaders unless your have EE/Chalice. Even then it might be the play. They gotta kill with combat damage so the Ring will put in a lot of work stalling. sometimes you just got to go for it if you have no other options and you arent sure if they have force
5
Tron4 Fatal Push
1 Damnation
1 Thoughtseize
2 Blood Moon
1 Magus of the Moon
1 Sheoldred		Even - Early Archon/Troll does the trick. Sheoldred is very good since they don't have many answers and tron just wants to win with the ring nowadays. Blood moon.
6
UR Murktide1 Beseech the mirror
2 Troll
1 Bitter
1 The One Ring
1 Archon
1 Push		3 Leyline of the Void
1 Sheoldred
1 Thoughtseize
2 Terminate		Slightly Unfavored - Hard to resolve big sorceries but jam every turn anyways. if they have all the CS you cant really do anything If you land a ring, it's most likely GG
7
Burn3 Thoughtseize
1 Damnation
1 Troll		2 EE
2 Chalice
1 Sheoldred		Even - Not that bad if you yolo an archon/troll into play T2 or T3. Ring can buy you time, don't be afraid to just play it and refrain from tapping it until your next turn to play another one/beseech for another one if that 1 extra life is crucial (basically using it as a time walk)
8
4/5c Omnath4 Fatal Push
1 Damnation
1 Archon
1 Troll		1 Magus of the Moon
2 Blood Moon
1 Thoughtseize
2 Terminate
1 Sheoldred		Slightly Unfavored - Up the bitchstalk is a good card, that thing will tear you apart. Keep fetches to push omnath if possible, otherwise good luck. You can outgrind if you land a ring and they somehow dont have a leyline right away. I take out Damnation cause they rarely have more than 1 omnath MAYBE a solitude on board at once so it's kinda overkill
9
Hammertime4 Bowmasters
1 Troll
3 Thoughtseize		2 EE
2 Blood Moon
1 Hidetsugu
1 Magus of the Moon
2 Terminate		Favored - Keep Bowmasters if they play Esper Sentinel. You can stall very easily in this matchup by chaining rings and they dont really have any counterplay. Be aware of Sanctifier-En-Vec (dont discard archon/troll if you dont need to)
10
Titan4 Bowmasters
4 Push
1 Bitter
1 Troll		2 Blood Moon
1 Magus of the Moon
2 Terminate
1 Hidetsugu
1 Thoughtseize
1 Sheoldred
2 EE 		Slightly Unfavored - While slightly unfavored, Blood moons/rings buy a lot of time in order to win and obviously a fast hasty archon can end the game rather quickly as they only have dismember to kill it
11
Living End4 Fatal Push
1 Persist
1 Troll
1 Bitter		2 Chalice of the Void
3 Leylines of the Void
1 Thoughtseize
1 Sheoldred		Favored - Fun Matchup to play. Discarding Archons/Trolls is surpringly effective, don't feel too frisky in bringing them back early with persist if you have disruption
12
Yawgmoth3 Thoughtseize
1 Troll		3 Leylines of the Void
1 Sheoldred		Even - They dont really have disruption game 1 apart from cauldron. Try and keep the board as clean as possible so they cant start drawing a bunch with yawg.
13
Jund Saga1 Troll
1 Bitter
3 Thoughtseize		1 Magus of the Moon
2 Blood Moon
2 EE
Favored - Goyfs are the scariest threats but can be dealt fairly easily with. They will most likely get pithing needle to get ring with Saga so try to play in consequence that they do that.
14
Creativity4 Fatal Push
1 Beseech the mirror
1 Troll		2 EE
1 Thoughtseize
2 Blood Moon
1 Magus of the Moon		Favored - Ring protects you from archon triggers so try and play with that in mind. dont be afraid to let an archon resolve if you have persist in hand :)
15
Grixis Shadow1 Troll
3 Thoughtseize
1 Bitter
1 Archon		2 Chalice of the Void
1 Magus of the Moon
2 blood moon
1 Sheoldred		Even - Feels a lot like the murktide matchup where a bunch of counterspells will ruin your day. other than that try to play as much around them as you can, sometimes they just dont have it!
16
UB Ring1 Damnation
3 Fatal Push
1 Archon
1 Bitter
1 Persist		1 Thoughtseize
1 Cast into the Fire
1 Nihil
1 Unlicensed Hearse		Slightly Unfavored - Grindy Matchup, hit your land drops and drop a threat when you can. bowmasters/sheoldred/fable are the very best cards in the matchup. They will die to their own rings often so if you can get rid of their sheoldred on their turn, untap and sneak an archon into play, in theory it should be enough. chip in as much as you can
17
Mill1 Damnation
4 Orcish Bowmasters
2 Troll		1 Thoughtseize
2 EE
2 Blood Moon
1 Magus of the Moon
1 Sheoldred		Unfavored - Not fun at all. they will surgical whatever you have and you dont really have any counter plays. try and thoughtseize as much as you can i guess :/
18
Merfolk3 Thoughtseize
1 Troll		2 EE
2 Terminate		Favored - Dream matchup. Kill everything on sight, play ring, do it again
