Sideboard


Short Description:

A semy midrange dragon deck im using, abusing of the Izzet Staticaster+Gorgon's Head and the dragon clone combo, Niv-Mizzet and aetherling as win conditions. I need help in the sideboard, please tell me your opinion and +1's are apreciated. Thank you.

Long description:

Its time to wonce again explore and abuse the ability to guive Izzet Staticaster death touch, and make a deck with all his friends that can also ping to kill.

Gorgon's Head - is core in this deck, and it is the thing that makes all of it possible by guiving all your pingers the death ping.

Izzet Staticaster - Give this a Gorgon's Head and you can kill something every turn, if no heads are available this deals well with mana dorks, and a bunch stuf that is trown in white winnies, also completelly nullifies Assemble the Legion.

Frostburn Weird - A friend of staticaster's, use him to play defensive use him to play agresivecan be annoying if given a head mostly usefull during early game.

Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius - This one is the big dawg ... i mean Dragon... Ping, death ping, card draw, he does it all, with style.

AEtherling - It is illegal to run a blue deck witouth this guy, true story, look it up.

Izzet Keyrune - /was removed/- sometimes i had inicial hand mana trouble so i took out these and added lands.

Curse of the Swine - (my favorite card in its set) you may not ba able to kill gods but you sure can turn them in to pigs. Works nicely if you have a Izzet Staticaster + Gorgon's Head or just 2 staticasters.

Cyclonic Rift - There will be somethings you will need to bounce for multiple reasons, i don't feel like elaborating all of them. Overload combos well if Curse of the Swine was previously used.

Mizzium Mortars - you won't always have the death ping on the fiel, being able to pump in 4 damage on a creature is verry usefull. Overload combos well if Curse of the Swine was previously used.

Steam Augury - decided not to use it and am now running divinations instead. It was shity to let your opoent decide what ends up in your hand in a combo deck.

Magma Jet - this one gets to be diferent from the other burns because it will provide you with sry and guive you the ability to decide what do draw next turn.

Scourge of Valkas - has a 17 damage combo if paired with Stolen Identity. Can also do interesthing things if guiven te death touch... mostly in just for the combo.

Stolen Identity - mostly used for the combo mentioned above but can also copy other usefull stuf, like gods or theyr weapons.

Hypersonic Dragon - helps the combo and gives sorceries the instant uper hand.

My main win conditions are Niv-mizzet, dracogeniu, AEtherling and dragon clone combo, i would apreciate any suggestions for the sideboard, thanks for looking at my deck.

why am i running Catch in the sideboard you ask! i actualy think this is averry underrated card ... imagine this cenario you just finished your 6th turn and you have been building your Kiora to 5 counters, you'll use her ultimate next turn and start rolling in with those 9/9's but then... your opponent steals her and HE uses her ultimate and HE gets a 9/9 per turn, and this can be applied to almost anny planeswalker, imagine doing this with Dormi, Ajani or Elspeth... This is the main reason, but it can also steal a creature for the alfa strike.

should i run Negate or Dissolve?
