OK, here is a tweaked version for the current meta, and it's been at a 95% win ratio. The added discard is amazingly good at removing late game threats before they happen, or forcing a bad play to avoid losing a card. The graveyard visits allow access to those late game threats and/or destroyed cards or even used counters. I've also found more use in a 3/1 split of Benvenuto and AD. I have 5 of each, but for some reason this ratio plays best with the deck flow.
