The only parts of the sideboard that are set in stone are the Golgari Charms, Pithing Needle and Wolfir Silverheart. The charms and needles are there against sweeping and control, the silverheart is there incase I'll need the extra pumping for Biomancers.
Any and all comments/criticisms will be read and taken into account to better the deck.
Here is the deck I've been testing out on cockatrice and in proxy with my group! I've played against naya zoo and have gone 10-2, modern knights 5-3, twin and scapeshift both 6-1 and a tron deck 4-1
My worst match up thus far is affinity and that is 7-7
The four land in the board is there if I 1) run into mana troubles and 2) with the new sideboard rules I can still have the extra land if I add all 15 and don't take anything out.
Mcpatches, a lot of the sideboard was filler due to the limited time I had to put this deck together and the cemetery was all I had access to at the time due to most of our UG stuff running in another deck last night.
Jesusfan1170, I wanted to run them but couldn't find them in time for the tourny.
Firom, the only other thread I've been able to find was the one in the developing competitive forum and I don't currently have posting rights there yet.
I went 3-1 with this deck
Round 1 (1-2) vs. Mono-Black Trading Post
Was a very close match-up but just missed my counterspell by 1 turn against the 2nd Curse of Death's Hold
Round 2 (2-0) vs. RB Vampires
Just went aggro beats against him and he didn't stand a chance
Round 3 (2-1) vs. 4 colour Miracle Grow
games 1 and 3 were a cake walk for me and game 2 he dropped a Vault Skirge with buff almost every turn until I scooped
Round 4 (2-1) vs. Goblins
Went neck and neck first two games...got screwed game 2 with 6 green cards in hand and ZERO forests then stomped him in 3 minutes of game 3.
All-in-all I LOVED THIS deck tonight took 7th out of 30 players including my cities top 4 players!!!!
Ended up dropping the worldslayer for a white sun's zenith and had great results at my Tuesday night magic tournament. Drew for first after obliterate Tempered Steel 2-0 then went up against a black/red speed burn deck 2-0'd it as well then went to time in game 3 of round 3 versus a fairly flawless GWB junk token control deck!
I've been playing around with the idea of a Mono Bleu Snapcaster deck that still toys with my old Grand Architect deck... I currently don't have Wurmcoil Engine listed since it is in my partners deck and works very well there.
Here is my take on UW Humans that get to have unblockable fun with my blades and the possibility to have a crusader deal 32 points of unblockable damage!!!
