as some general advice on those p1t1 plays, I find putting helm in the center to be better so you can accelerate. The “classic” one as you call it is better putting the wings directly in front of the tile, 1 space away from the general so that they can’t block you off from accelerating.
As a more general thing, since when was mechaz0r a meme 


I feel that without any Dancers I’m often just easily killed around 5-6 mana (or lose all my hand even with the Spelljammers), but I could see Void Pulse working nicely instead.
I just love my thicc waifu stuff too much I suppose!
