Sideboard


Maybeboard


An adulteration of the GSGE list produced by BenDawes. Went up to 4 Lotus Blooms to heighten the chances of opening with one, and to allow me to play with at least two during my combo turn by way of Reshape. If you only play two, it's highly likely that you will draw one while comboing and be unable to use it.

Additionally, most of the shocklands were removed in lieu of basics. While playtesting I never feel constrained by colored mana, and it's easy to run out of targets for Ghost Quarter with the original amount of shocklands. The basics also hurt a lot less, since you have to pay life to untap shocks every time you cast Mana Seism + Faith's Reward.

Two of each of the combo pieces (Bitter Ordeal and Psychogenic Probe) seems correct, but I'm still goldfishing a lot. I don't feel comfortable with one of each, but you most certainly don't need four (BenDawes' original suggest). This allows space for four Elsewhere Flasks instead of two Prophetic Prisms and the additional Lotus Blooms. Three Mana Seism could be good, but still unsure. It's very important, but I don't really want it in an opening hand either.

Haven't worked on the SB at all -- hence why it's copied straight from BenDawes.
