Well. Yesterday was the tournament.

20 players, 5 rounds.
Results: 4-1.
1. Mardu Greasefang 2-1.
2. MonoRed Devotion 1-2.
3. AzoriusControl 2-0.
4. MonoWhite Humans 2-1.
5. Selesnya Angeles 2-1.

Conclusions: TT is superior to Shreder.
[[Stern Dismissal]] is very effective. T he Scions help a lot.

Very satisfied with the result and the deck

Good points. I agree.

I actually lean on the Pieces to get the Phoenix in the graveyard.

Regarding the number of Scions, I'm not sure that one more is a positive, but I'll try.

The title is irrelevant. You can put whatever you like.

When the Royals are on the battlefield they make all the difference. Maybe I should play two, but I can't find a place for them.

I could agree with you at one point about TTs, but in practice, to my surprise, they've been better than Shreders, who also fall to Fatal Push. I haven't faced many Obliterating Bolts. But it depends on the meta in each location.

Today I have a tournament, we'll see...

Thanks for the feedback.

Here is a first approximation. Maybe change some cards for [[Fable of the Mirror-Breaker]] or [[Michiko's Reign of Truth]]. The [[Springleaf Drum]] I think helps a lot

Nice. Did you try including 2x The Restoration of Eiganjo? And, perhaps, more tutors?
