bah-bammmm: Then don't look at decks that aren't homebrews. That's the simple solution. The title to this deck clearly implied what style deck it was.

Oh, right, I forgot that I'm on this site to please bah-bammmm by posting homebrews. My sincerest apologies.

NoPantsParade lol! Great deck, btw. Only thing is that I'd suggest an Ancient Grudge or two to help out with the affinity matchup. You only have one Shatterstorm, and Anger of the Gods might not always do it. Ancient Grudge is also useful against tron, where Shatterstorm is not.

bah-bammmm: Please make useful comments, or complain somewhere else (namely a forum). There are competitive players on this site, so if you're upset that these players are looking to fine-tune rather than build, then don't comment. That's your liberty. Wasting our time with irrelevant comments does not further this deck, so please refrain from commenting on this deck in the future. Thanks.

i see people sideboard Atarka's Command for infect and soul sisters, and i do not see a lot of man lands in the tournaments i go to. as for tron, Dreadbore sees a lot of sideboard, but i guess that depends on the meta of your lgs. so, Dreadbore over terminate, mainly for the mirror match, and for other planeswalkers like karn.

Rakdos Charm for twin and soul sisters, tier 1 jund decks usually have the cards i listed.

regeneration is hardly used at modern tournaments, tron does not use it, and neither does infect, so the best removal is Dreadbore over Terminate

No they don't. Dreadbore is poop and Atarka's Command does nothing against Infect except block an Inkmoth Nexus, which I thought, according to you, nobody played. I've never encountered Soul Sisters, so it's not relevant here anyways. The only reasonable suggestion from you was Rakdos Charm and even then I wouldn't play that over Ancient Grudge like pumpkinwavy suggested. Also I'm not taking out the man lands. They're pretty good in Jund simply because when we're both topdecking, I can just attack with the lands instead. Clearly this deck is meant for actual tournaments, so I posted it to receive feedback like buildingadeck said.
pumpkinwavy, I considered Ancient Grudge; however, I'm not quite sure what to take out from the sideboard for it. Any suggestions? I like Shatterstorm since it just blows out Affinity, so I'd like to keep it as a one of.

my bad, i didn't mean to suggest Atarka's Command is good for infect, i meant it is good in general. i never said this deck was not for tournaments, i do not know where you got that from. the meta at my lgs has soul sisters, i didn't know if the lgs you went to had one. please explain how Dreadbore is "poop". nobody uses regeneration, not really, and it has the same cmc as Terminate. i could understand not putting it in if hat a higher converted mana cost.

It's not necessary in my meta. And Dreadbore is sorcery speed and not many planeswalkers are played at my LGS.
August 25, 2015 8:29 p.m.
that guy bahbammm was right about the Dreadbore. it is better than terminate and at least deserves a sideboard. it kills tron.

Card disadvantage is not where you want be with a grindy midrange deck.
August 25, 2015 8:30 p.m.
Duress and Kitchen Finks are also not very good sideboard tech. if you were smart you might run Grafdigger's Cage
August 25, 2015 8:34 p.m.
Duress is good when you know you don't need Thoughtseize, and you especially don't want to pay 2 life against a linear and aggressive deck.
Kitchen Finks??? Of course it's good!
In general, instant > sorcery, but depending on your local meta, Dreadbore actually could be better suited... but never instead of Terminate. Rather, as a mix, slash alongside.

I'm going to reply to thebigman's comments in a non-sarcastic, constructive way, providing explanations and backing them up.
Night of Souls' Betrayal is a very good card vs twin, affinity, and infect. While it may be a bit slow, all three of these decks virtually cannot win if it stays in play. According to mtggoldfish.com, these decks take up almost 25% of the meta. For a singleton in the sideboard, that's not bad.
Duress is for the matchups where you need an extra discard spell. I'd board this in vs twin, grixis control, scapeshift, ad nauseum, griselbrand, and all control decks. While many of these are too small a percent of the meta to calculate precisely, these are a fairly large number of decks. Again, not bad for a singleton in the side.
Kitchen Finks is a card that is just below maindeck quality and can thus come in whenever you have lots to board out. It also shines vs burn (a weaker matchup for jund) and creature deck like zoo and Collected Company decks. Jund is already strong against these decks, so Kitchen Finks is mainly for burn, which is about 7% of the meta, and is also a cheap deck those on a budget are likely to build. Definitely worth it.
Grafdigger's Cage I could see bringing in against griselbrand decks, where it would be okay but you still lose to Through the Breach, and tron eggs, which is like <1% of the meta. This card would stay in your sideboard every single round of the tournament, forever.
Watch me get ninja'd so much this comment isn't even relevant anymore.
