Sideboard


Main idea of the deck is to get the creatures into the graveyard and back onto the battlefield.

To get card advantage and disrupt the opponent, there's a ton of discard for the opponent and draw for yourself.

How it works


The #1 combo is Gifts Ungiven + Unburial Rites / Zombify

Gifts Ungiven also allows you to grab a lot of other cards when you might want these.

Getting them to the graveyard can also be achieved in other ways, such as Faithless Looting, Taigam's Scheming and using Inquisition of Kozilek on yourself.

In addition to this Faithless Looting combined with Taigam's Scheming gives very cheap card draw to get what you want, while putting those creatures in the graveyard :D

Creature workings


Usually you will grab 4 creatures with Gifts, all but Nephilim. Then depending on which the opponent chooses to go to the graveyard you will often play one creature that fetches others for you.

For example, Sharuum the Hegemon fetches Magister Sphinx to bring opponent to 10, and attack for 10 flying the next turn. (Or the same turn if you got a Fervor up.

Other example, have Fervor on the board and all but Nephilim in the graveyard. Next turn cast Nephilim and attack, grab Sharuum to get Magister, attack with all and win.
