Like, for instance, once you've cut his deck, what could he do? He should be riffle shuffling too, dems the rules.

The only bad one was the guy that cheated me out of my Top 8. After thinking about it, that was the second time I've ran into this guy, and both times he's pulled the god hand's (cheated) on me. Must mean something if he can't beat me without cheating. I know he's never top 8'd in my store, but I normally do with both Tempered Steel and my normal UW decks that I usually play.
You shouldn't call people cheaters lightly. Need bit more suspicious behaviour than just god-hands.
On topic, today I continued to play my valakut, only changed 2 simulacrums into 2 rampant growths to make a full set of rampants.
I went 2-1, beat an infect deck and RUG birthing pod deck. My deck as a whole is now 8-2 over three FNMs, with both losses attributed to UB Tezzeret control.

Got my first first place! Used my blue green infect with pumps lashes and inkmoth nexus'....
Beat a black red burn, kill, and bloodthirst (new player though)
Beat a Red burn deck but his downfall was he had very few instants...mostly sorceries so my Nexus' had a field-day
Smashed a Blue white control deck...6 turns won the whole match 2-0
Beat a Green mana ramp and creature production but Lash on the Blighted agent ended that one fast
Ended beating a Tumble Magnet Spell-skite decks with Tezzeret...This one took FOREVER because my pumps were worth-less...every time we played...all three games he had at least 2 spell skites or 3 tumble magnets on the field in first couple drops...Wanted to call Shenannigans but I kept on keepin on...beat him vanilla with the Nexus'... he had no fly-block and Agents are unblockable anyway...and he had no kill spells...that was his downfall

Okay... I made the U/W deck tons better and yesterday I got 1st. Completely undefeated in all of the games.
List:
Lands: 11x Plains 10x Islands 1x Glacial Fortress 1x Terramorphic Expanse 1x Evolving Wilds
Creatures: 3x Aether Adept 1x Kor Sanctifiers 1x Emeria Angel 1x Gideon's Lawkeeper 3x Blade Splicer 1x Sea Gate Oracle 1x Wall of Omens 2x Archon of Justice 2x Sun Titan 3x Merfolk Looter
Other: 1x Venser, the Sojourner 1x Gideon Jura 2x Day of Judgment 3x Pacifism 1x Jace's Ingenuity 1x Redirect 2x Mana Leak 1x Journey to Nowhere 1x Sword of Feast and Famine 1x Pitfall Trap 2x Ponder 1x Cancel 1x Ice Cage
SB: 3x Celestial Purge 3x Flashfreeze 2x Lone Missionary 1x Pacifism 1x Sejiri Merfolk 1x Mind Control 1x Divination 1x Gideon's Lawkeeper 1x Redirect 1x Druidic Satchel
I've been loving how this deck has been performing. There is so much synergy that goes on in this deck. Blade Splicer, Aether Adepts, Oracles, and Wall of Omens stalls early enough to start pulling out the different threats that win the game. If you grab a Sun Titan, the CA and Tempo you get from grabbing Splicers and Adepts are just insane.
I have never been unhappy with an adept. I was always pleased everytime I played him. The other guy will have a pretty rough time with an adept and a Venser out at the same time. Grabbing him with the Titan is amazing. I'll swing with the Titan and grab the adept to bounce your blocker. Gideons are amazing if you are able to hold the creatures down. Ponder + Evolving Wilds grabs you the stuff you need. A Venser and a Sun Titan is just sick. If you have a Gideon out as well, you can always flicker Gideon when he starts running out of counters.
Everything in this deck just seems to have so much synergy.
