I came to this article as a fellow player myself in hopes to improve my own skills with the deck. The article is very well written and I enjoyed reading it!

May your turn 2 kills be plentiful,
Zev

Smallpox can be very strong against Infect. It’s a deck that frequently mulligans, has a low land count, and plays lots of turn 1-2 creatures. Going turn 2 Smallpox following an Infect player’s land/Hierarch is probably game over as long as you follow it up with something decent. Just beware of Pox fueling delve too much and you will be golden.

You got me! Actually, the way to beat Abzan is easy: Ban Goyf/Lilly/Decay/insert_BGx_staple_here!
No, but seriously. All sorts of fun anti-Abzan goodness coming next week!

I would think that it should be good, especially on turn 2, as infects lands are super important (being backup creature or pump spells). But I haven’t tested against infect enough to know if that sort of card is actually good.
