Sideboard


Feedback is appreciated, as this is still a work in progress.

I'm looking for a new standard deck to play at my LGS, i'm wanting to keep this one fairly rotation proof and so I likely will refrain from adding cards like Jadelight Ranger . Likewise, Hydroid Krasis i'm going to avoid including here because of that price... $50 Canadian ($38 US) is too much for me to consider ever adding a playset here, I would rather spend such towards modern.

Anyways, i'm stuck now deciding between 3 lists, I like the look of all of them, but I can't decide which I want to play the most. One advantage to this and the list is that I already possess a playset of Breeding Pool , 3x Overgrown Tomb , 3x Woodland Cemetery , 1x of each a Watery Grave , Hinterland Harbor , and drowned catacombs. But, I don't have any of the mythics in this case the Biogenic Ooze 's, Prime Speaker Vannifar , only 1/4 Growth-Chamber Guardian s and none of the Hadana's Climb   which I dislike however that they will rotate in about 6 months. The Sultai list gets even more options in removal over this one, and more options for what creatures I can include to use in conjunction with Prime Speaker Vannifar . This list as well as the , do happen to lose some significant counter support with next rotation but I should be able to make up for this by focusing more on Prime Speaker Vannifar I suspect.

As for the list, while I don't have any of the mana base, I do own nearly everything except for the Spawn of Mayhem s and Judith, the Scourge Diva s and what I don't still own beyond that is quite cheap. I think a cheaper manabase is also more possible for this list over that of the others too. The Sultai list I worry about not having the colours I need at times and this list shouldn't have that worry as much. This deck would also lose little at rotation. It's really either do I want to play an aggro deck or a midrange? Both seem like fun to me, but I would appreciate to hear some other thoughts on any of these decklists, ways to possibly improve them and or which I should perhaps choose.

I'm currently leaning towards the deck as it survives rotation much longer and what it does lose is likely quite replaceable.

Many thanks! Delta
