U/W Spirit Tempo

Modern

Sideboard


Spirits tempo deck. Uses Rattlechains to get Spirits in play at instant speed. Spell Quellers further help us stay ahead in tempo. Countermagic works best to protect the spirits in play if there are no Drogskol Captains in play and no Rattlechains on hand. I know Path to Exile is the best for removal, but I'm thinking that it does not go well in this deck. Helping the opponent ramp up does not help me stay ahead on tempo, and may help the opponent cast spells that are outside Spell Queller range faster. Need to find an efficient method to get opposing creatures out of action, since removal spells in white and blue are few. I'm also thinking about adding AEther Vials, but I'm not sure if they are needed.

After playtesting against 4 different decks, including Grixis Delver and Infect, the deck seems to work well. Based on that I made a sideboard that I think covers the most popular decks including Affinity, Tron, Delver, and Combo decks. I think I will add Eidolon of Rhetoric to the sideboard. I was also thinking about taking out the Concealed Courtyard and put in another Polluted Delta, since I think I have too much black mana. I still have yet to flash Lingering Souls, since with this deck I either win fast, or lose fast. This is the reason why I am considering the change to the mana base. The hero of the deck is Rattlechains. Once in play, it allows me to protect all my creatures from targeted removal by flashing in a Drogskol Captain or a Kira, Great Glass-Spinner, or mass removal by flashing in a Selfless Spirit. I will adjust the mana base and see if improves the deck further. Last point is that I think I should take out the Mutavaults and add two Cavern of Souls. I am not sure about this, but the Mutavaults stay home often, since the deck wants you to leave mana open, and couter/flash creatures in as much as possible.
