On the evening of June 4, I set out on a mission to lose a match with Jordan’s RCDC Momo deck. Five hours later, after the dust settled, I was 21-3 in matches on MTG Arena!

21-3 MTG Arena Screenshots
In this first match, I had 2 bad draws. I won anyway vs. a very competitive deck in Mardu that had Academic, CBR etc:
Second match, vs. Orzhoz, 2-0. Here’s their graveyard:
This Momo deck is the dumbest deck (in a good way!) I’ve seen in a while. Subtleties too, although I’m sad Pixie cant pick up Nuisance. I wonder if another Practiced Offense is better than a 3rd Haliya?
Dropped a game to this cool deck (Howling Mine on a stick, that pings with Ugin and friends):
Dropped a game here too (still hard to lose a match!):
At this points I was 19-1. A few matches later, I retired for the evening with a 21-3 record!
Adam was right when he recommended I play without a sideboard to complete the mission! Also, besides the Riddlers (uggh) this deck is pretty inexpensive to build on paper. MTG Goldfish currently has the price at $372.72.
