Sideboard


Maybeboard

Planeswalker (1)

Land (1)

Enchantment (1)


With collected company out, I'm going to attempt to make my favourite tribe work in the Modern format. Please add suggestions!

Please refer to the updates section under 'Deck Modifications' to see the progression of the deck and the reasoning behind the changes

Sideboard explanation:

Magus of the Moon: great vs tron, jund, junk, pretty much anything in 3 colours or more

Chalice of the Void: great against burn or delver, possible affinity (play on zero or 1?)

Abrupt Decay: great against twin

Spellskite: great against twin and burn

Necrotic Sliver: for planeswalkers mostly, also alright against tron (debatable)

Harmonic Sliver: anything artifact

Telekinetic Sliver : Great for tapping down lands against tron and amulet to prevent them from going off, has nice synergy with Blur Sliver or Sentinel Sliver as well.

1-2 win (opponent had to leave early and just scooped after winning 2-1 against me) Jeskai Geist/ Ally Gideon

Gideon was really good against this deck, really tough to deal with since the tokens could easily block my attacks, + Gideon attacks for 5 with indestructible, and it's all backed up with heavy amounts of removal. Game 2 I won by coco-ing into multiple lords. I sideboarded in 3x Frenetic Sliver which only appeared once in game 3, and flopped with no value the turn it came out. I can't remember what I sided out but it was likely 2x Dark Confidant + 1x Syphon Sliver

2-0 win MonoGreen Ramp

This match up was a pure race since theres nothing in my sideboard that can deal with a Primeval Titan. I managed to win Game 1 with my opponent flopping hard on lands/dorks. Game 2 I Dismembered his turn 1 dork which out tempo'd him enough to swing for lethal a couple of turns later (with flying + haste slivers). No Collected Companys were used.

1-2 lost Elf Ball

This match up is normally just a race, however, both the games I lost I was stuck on 1 land (mutavault) which wrecked me. Game 1 I was stuck on 1 land for 5 turns (i kept a 1 land hand after mulligan-ing once because I didn't want to go down to 5 against an elf deck, this was probably a large error). Game 2 I won turn 4 with a giant swing. Game 3 I lost with 1 land + aether vial (I didn't draw into any lands for 4 turns, normally this wouldn't be a problem in match-ups that aren't races but elves crushed in hard)

2-0 Jund

This is the first time I've actually beat jund easily. The change to mainboard 4x Diffusion Sliver made a huge tempo difference between the two board states, turn 2 Diffusion Sliver is excellent. I side boarded in 3x Frenetic Sliver which ended up being irrelevant because I didn't draw into them, I sided out 2x Dark Confidant and 1x Manaweft Sliver for game 2. Both games I won by turn 5

Overall: I haven't done enough testing to see if 3x frenetic sliver in the sideboard is good against removal heavy decks. I'm willing to experiment with Opaline Sliver instead since it gives immediate value from removal but still undecided on the subject.
