Most recent iteration of this deck. The current deck listing is the same as the same as the deck I have in paper, sideboard included.
I only play casual and often don't play a whole three games in a row without somebody changing decks, so I have trouble sideboarding.
I have seen trouble with control decks and sometimes with lifegain decks that have good protection for their board. I can't get rid of things protected by stuff like Spectra Ward or anything made indestructible.
Also, if I can't pull together essential combo pieces, namely Blasting Station
+
Retribution of the Ancients
I have a lot of trouble getting the murder train rolling. So anything to help pull that together would be great.
Finally while I would love to improve my land-base basically all options are out of price range for now. Don't worry, I am thinking about it, and if I could pay for the fetches and pain lands that would fix it all up nice I could splash green and justify it for Young Wolf but in the meantime I will just have to stay in my colors.
I am not always in love with Geralf's Messenger, and I honestly don't like Power Conduit but it removes counters with no mana cost which is fantastic.
Ion Storm
proved to be too much cost to use as much as I need. My biggest problem with Power Conduit is that to make the best use of it I need some sort of charge counter artifact sub-theme I currently don't have in place and I don't know if I really have room for it. I just pulled Brain in a Jar and put it in to test and it worked out ok so it is currently still in the list.
Geralf's Messenger is a little expensive for the result both in $$ and in CMC. Yet the extra 2 DMG really adds up once the combo murder engine starts up, so I'm not sure if I should cut him or put more in and bear it. If I do cut him entirely I'm not super sure on what to add.
Help with side board needed, suggestions always appreciated!
