Back in Mythic! The grind was real but at the time of writing we made it back to the top of the pile. 13 wins in gold for the weekend ranked, some more Light's Verdict cards, it was a good one. I know that I said that my days of playing Heirloom are limited but I couldn't resist.
The Deck

Rewards
We got another The Dearly Departed and a Pyrrhic Knowledge from Light's Verdict. I shadow Bifurcating Curse is also nice for the Death shine.
P2E
Decent week with ~13 Gods, considering I didn't play all my games. I am a bit short of time until the end of the year (crunch time at work).
Looking Forward
With the success I have had the last few days it is highly likely that Heirloom will be on the cards again for weekend ranked. I have aggressively been increasing the shine of my deck to shadow, with all Mortal Judgement and Core cards being shadow. If anyone has any suggestions on how to make this deck more competitive in the meta please let me know in the comments. Some have said that I should have 2x Land of the Dead but I'm not convinced.
At this stage it seems that I am just collecting data (and it is a turning out to be a really big dataset) until I can get enough Gods/Eth to buy some of the higher tier cards.
On the Light's Verdict front, I may just end up buying all the non-chase cards. I can't justify paying 100 bucks for each of the Whiteplain cards (400 in total) and the Demo price that Thaeriel is commanding.
That wraps it up for this week, I look forward to running into you out there on the cliff face!

Glad to see it's working for you. Neferu is a really nice card! I actually tried running anubians yesterday, but I barely play them and made several stupid mistakes. I won my third game, though. 😄
