So I was piling through the tourney I played last night until I ran into two Jund decks. It seems to be a hard matchup for us and I ran out of gas quick. I lost both matches by a very close margin.
My thought is to keep my early aggro, add card draw and some bombs for late game.
i'd say yes to garruk sideboaring vs Jund for sure. A jund deck is basically a removal deck. It helps to think in those terms. They blast you with everything under the sun from Red and Black then bring in some mid-range creatures to kill when the dust settles. In light of that, I don't know if siding out restoration angel vs Jund is a good idea. If you leave 3W untapped, you can dodge any spot removal they throw at you, and without white they don't have access to Terminus.
I was on the fence about cutting it too, Spazik. Not Sure where else I could make room for the SB though. Maybe Cut just one angel, one thrag and one smiter?
