Sideboard

Enchantment (8)

Instant (6)


Maybeboard


This deck has a lot going for it in the current modern metagame. All of the decks right now rely on either attackers or affinity, or things that are blocked by the maindeck Leyline of Sanctity (Storm, bolts, helices, discard).

Jace beleren does double duty, milling your opponent and drawing more fogs; he's the main win con. It can also eat an attack once in a while.

This deck tries to out-sideboard people. What do I mean by that? Well if you win in game 1 by attacking 4 times with Thassa, then side her out because the opponent will include his creature removal (dismember, path to exile) and you give the opponent dead draws. If you win with Isochron scepters in game 1, side them out as the opponent sides in all of their artifact removal, which again dead-cards them. Against burn, if you win with Leyline turn 1 in game 1, then side them out as they will be forced to mulligan to get enchantment removal, and add in lifegain.3

My biggest enemy is Inquisition of Kozilek and Thought-Knot Seer, but that's what the Leylines are for.

Against Tron I don't know. I haven't played it, but I'm hoping the Detention Spheres, Nevermores, and Negates will do something. Rest in Peace can prevent the eldrazi from reshuffling, but the 1st gen eldrazi aren't that popular anymore.
