What deck did you play and why did you choose it?
Tempo Twin because it has quick consistent draws, enough good match-ups, and it's the only deck I could borrow/had cards for.
What changes would you make to your deck and why would you make them?
The Jund match-up is very bad if the opponent is good, so maybe changing to more combo in the board or play another deck like Affinity.

Snapcaster Mage.
