Sideboard


This is a relatively typical rock deck, with a twist. That twist being that Phyrexian Obliterator and either Primal Might/Tail Swipe combo to one-shot an opponents board state. Until that happen, we act like a typical GB Rock deck, getting value.

Both Phyrexian Obliterator and Primal Might/Tail Swipe are both strong in their own right, and so it doesn't feel particularly bad when you've only got one and not the other. Obliterator still wins games unless dealt with, and the Fight spell is still excellent as a killspell. I Used to run 2 copies of Hornet Nest also, but found it a bit too fiddly when fights weren't being started. I think the deck functions better when the Fight-combo is a background mechanic, as opposed to trying to make the whole deck center around that idea.
