I've been testing with a green white deck like the one in BDM's article on Friday. Basically it's G/W aggro with Gaddock Teeg and Shield of the Oversoul. I like the deck and it does fairly well against the field, other than the Elemental deck. I'm looking for sideboard options and nothing I can come up with seems good enough.
I will have 3-4 Crib Swap in the side no matter what, and they will all come in, but I need more and better options. I have though about Wheel of Sun and Moon, but most of the Elemental decks are playing at least one Wispmare main (with 4 Harbingers)
well what gw enchantments you run md if none the side wheel in cause they most likely will side it out if they dont see one game one then side it out game 3
I have 3 Shield of the Oversoul and 3 Oblivion Ring main, I may end up going with the Wheel if I can't find anything better, but I think I can count on them having Wispmare's. I'm looking for some sort of plan with the potential to really swing the chances in my favor...
2-3 Primal Command + 1-2 Fairy Macabre is a good way to keep his graveyard clean.Crib Swab is a must too.Wheel of Sun and Moon is kinda useless against elemental (as you said harbringer + wispmare = bad)

Great thx to Zaphod from HighLight studio for this GREAT banner.
Do you think Primal Command is worth it, I haven't tested it much against the Elemental deck mainly because I'm playing Gaddock Teeg, do you think it would be pretty effective? I play 4 Gaddock Teeg main, would you suggest taking any (or all?) out to play the Primal Commands?
He's talking about their massive graveyard recycle abilities. HoN and makeshift manequin make their graveyard a deadly place. Imo bro put primals in the sideboard if your meta is filled with elemental decks and when the time comes, switch out teegs, switch in primals. Even though that will allow them to play manequins, it won't matter if they have nothing in the yard to target.
P.S. --- call me crazy, but imo snakeform is a better mb removal card than oring for Most matchups ---obviously with the exception of elementals --- so i reccomend playtesting it a bit and seing how it treats you. So far I've loved it

I think Last Breath is a good choice. Having tested Elementals against GW it seems like they can RACE and RACE with the GW dudes but Soulstoke spitting in creatures to block such as Lark, and Shriekmaw.. Soulstoke seems to be the problem.. it sucks too because GW doesn't have much to get rid of the soulstoke other then things like Last Breath and O-ring, which O-ring can be answered very easily with a Harbinger.. I suggest to Sideboard 2-3 Last breath. They can come in against Faeries, Kithkin, and other aggro decks.

Right now the best I can come up with is 3 Elvish Harbinger, 3 Crib Swap, 1 Chameleon Colossus, and 1 Oversoul of Dusk (with one in the main already). This still doesn't seem to bring game 2 and 3 above 50% for me...
Anyone have any better ideas? Should I resort to Faerie Macabre?
Thanks!

If you fail your promise Shinjutsei, i will send ninja on you!!
Thanks for the quick replies!
Once you tell us, it's going to be easier to help you sideboard for the matchup.
