Push is definitely a good card. But we have a lot of hand disruption to get rid of threats, and our threats are usually bigger than theirs, so IMO we don't need 4. Push is also a somewhat mediocre SB card if you have the white splash.
3/2 push/decay MB, 0/0 SB seems totally fine. And push doesn't sound very good in the meta you described anyway.
Well, it's just the mtgo meta. The top decks in the last week or two have been Affinity, Storm, Eldrazi Tron, Jund DS, Burn, and Dredge. So you think the 2nd Decay is worth it over the 4th Push?

Well, those are kinda the matchups that I would be aiming for. Kommand does a good enough job against incidental artifacts. I don't think I want to cut Eidolon. Storm is huge online right now, Ad Naus is Ad Naus, and I'm seeing a lot more Living End lately too. I think the combined metashare of the decks that are weak to Eidolon is enough that I want to keep him. So, is the Affinity/Lantern/KCI matchup good enough with 2 Kommands that I don't really need extra sideboard artifact hate? That seems wrong, but again, I can't figure out what I could possibly cut from this 76.

So, I need to cut one card and can't seem to decide on what it should be. I keep wondering if it's ok to go down to 1 Tarfire, but most of what I've read has advocated for 2. Also, if I only have the one artifact hate spell in the sideboard, is it better to be Kataki or Ancient Grudge?
