Sideboard


So, I'm not a huge fan of wasteland strangler, but I wanted to make a decent non-tron eldrazi deck that could still work. This is a sort of mid-range deck I came up with and it's been working out really well so far! It's not the best against aggro, but none the less, it works otherwise. If you have any comments or recommendations, feel free to let me know!

Ideally, this deck is based on controlling the opponent's hand with IOK, Thoughtseize, Kolaghan's Command, and Distended Mindbender, then killing what they have on the field with Lightning Bolt/Terminate/Dismember/Dreadbore, then finishing it off with the Eldrazi themselves.

I run Dreadbore/Terminate/Dismember over things like more bolts/burn and Doomblade simply because while yes the mana is a bit harder, my local meta runs more black related decks and a few run obliterators which you do not want to burn.

Obviously the main threats are the Reality Smashers, Thought-knot Seer's, and to an extent the Distended Mindbenders. That being said, I've found that the Matter Reshapers and Eternal Scourge's can also put up a decent fight.

As for the more random/support cards, I've found that Endless One is nice simply because he's usable whenever you draw him, whether you need a blocker early on or a finisher late game. Then the Sea Gate Wreckage and Copters I run because I've found that occasionally the deck can be mana-screwed or simply run out of steam later in this game, which this helps with. Night's whispers isn't always ideal, considering it hurts you, but I've still found it to be relatively helpful at times.

Again, if you have any recommendations, feel free to let me know!
