I made this deck entirely off reading this thread, and it got me to top 8 at 4-1 with no sideboard. This is my first self built deck and was hoping I could get some suggestions for the SB. I Lost to control.

How did the control deck beat you was it durdle till giant threat (i.e. Angel of serenity) or play an earlier threat (i.e. Giest) then keep you board clear.
For sideboard i would take out the smelts as there aren't many artifacts i am afraid of in this format and im not a huge fan of electrickry but it could be good in a certain meta.
Ok half the lists here are like SEVERLY schizophrenic. RakDW is a speed aggro deck. It doesn't plan for the late game because there shouldn't be a late game. Disciple of Bolas is HORRIBLE for a fast aggro deck. Most of your creatures are small and don't net much. Additionally, he himself is too slow for this type of deck. Your 4 drops should be your game finishing bombs, like Aristocrat and hell rider. If your going to play RakDW, you have to commit to it and go balls to the wall. You can't half ass it.

Slaughter Games should probably be at least a 2-of in the SB to stop control and the every-now-and-then combo deck you come across. Naming Supreme Verdict or Terminus should be enough to keep your dudes on the board long enough for the kill.

MY side board is
3 Rakdos Charm
3 Mizzium Mortars
2 Rakdos, Lord of Riots
2 Knight of Infamy
2 Tribute to hunger
3 Pillar of flame
But a sideboard should be built for your specific meta

The guy kept my board empty, unsummons and syncopates until supreme verdict till he popped tamiyo and jace. still almost beat him with my burn though.
