Reflection Template For Mono-White Humans
For each loss, name one primary cause and one secondary cause. For each win, name the card, package, or tactical policy that most contributed to the win. Classify each result as a card quantity problem, card selection problem, mana problem, tempo problem, matchup problem, sideboard problem, pilot sequencing problem, or closing-power problem. Report mana performance, sideboard impact, stranded cards, overperforming cards, underperforming cards, and whether the Deck Strategy or Tactical Policy guidance was followed.
-
Deciding factor: identify whether the game was won or lost by early pressure, disruptive tempo, mana reliability, combat sizing, sideboard hate, removal timing, or a stalled close. Name the exact cards that produced the swing, especially Adeline, Resplendent Cathar, Thalia's Lieutenant, Coppercoat Vanguard, Mutavault, Declaration in Stone, Rest in Peace, Seam Rip, Wedding Announcement, or Extraction Specialist.
-
Mulligans: record whether the opener had a functional white source, a one- or two-drop, and a credible pressure curve. Flag keeps that depended on Mox Amber without a stable legendary permanent such as Kytheon, Hero of Akros, Thalia, Guardian of Thraben, Adeline, Resplendent Cathar, Zack Fair, or Haliya, Guided by Light.
-
Mana: note each game where Cavern of Souls, Mutavault, Eiganjo, Seat of the Empire, Plains, or Mox Amber constrained legal actions. Separate color issues from tempo issues, because this deck can have enough lands but still fail to cast Declaration in Stone, Rest in Peace, Seam Rip, Wedding Announcement, or Cosmogrand Zenith on the critical turn.
-
Velocity: track whether Recruitment Officer, Kytheon, Hero of Akros, Thalia, Guardian of Thraben, Thalia's Lieutenant, Coppercoat Vanguard, and Adeline, Resplendent Cathar produced pressure before the opponent stabilized. Mark games where the deck played creatures but failed to create a lethal clock.
-
Engine performance: record whether Recruitment Officer activations, Wedding Announcement, Extraction Specialist, Cosmogrand Zenith, Haliya, Guided by Light, Arachne, Psionic Weaver, Spectacular Spider-Man, or Spider-Woman, Stunning Savior generated real decisions and material advantage. If card text was uncertain during play, mark Card text check required instead of crediting the card.
-
Removal and disruption: review every Declaration in Stone, Seam Rip, Loran of the Third Path, Eiganjo, Seat of the Empire channel action, and combat-based removal line. Judge whether the chosen target changed combat, protected the clock, or interrupted the opponent's engine rather than merely spending mana.
-
Sideboard impact: compare the post-board plan against visible opponent cards and public game history. Record whether Add role cards: Rest in Peace, Seam Rip, Extraction Specialist, Wedding Announcement, Loran of the Third Path, Spectacular Spider-Man, or Spider-Woman, Stunning Savior improved the matchup or diluted the Human curve.
-
Closing: inspect turns where lethal or near-lethal attacks were available through Adeline, Resplendent Cathar tokens, Thalia's Lieutenant counters, Coppercoat Vanguard pressure, Kytheon, Hero of Akros attacks, or Mutavault activations. Flag missed closes, overcautious passes, and attacks that ignored visible blockers or open mana.
-
Role assignment: state whether the pilot correctly played as beatdown, tempo-disruption, rebuild-against-removal, or hate-backed pressure. Mark games where the deck acted like control without enough card advantage, or acted like pure aggro when a visible engine required Seam Rip, Rest in Peace, Declaration in Stone, or Loran of the Third Path.
-
Mistakes and stranded cards: list each legal action that later looked wrong, each card stranded by mana or timing, and each overperformer or underperformer. Pay special attention to Mox Amber, Cosmogrand Zenith, Declaration in Stone, Rest in Peace, Wedding Announcement, Extraction Specialist, and single-copy main-deck cards whose text or role was unclear.
