FNM pointers
Deck Help forum

I will be going to my second FNM this week and taking Life and Death in Ravnica.
Any suggestions for this deck? Especially looking for help preparing the sideboard (including what to take out) for the meta.

The shop only does standard once a month, so patterns are hard to find. Looks like mainly standard's top decks from a while back along with a decent number of surprise decks.
My guess is that I will see 2 or 3 bant midrange decks playing Thragtusk and garruk. Boros and american control were strangely missing last time, but naya aggro was there a bit, mainly the Loxodon Smiter variety rather than humans (which I brought last time). Jund obviously, that seems to be everywhere. Also a couple of mill decks were there last time, though I'm not sure if they will be there again this week.

Since this is only my second time at FNM, I don't really have a good feel for what people will be playing.
Any advice on how to prepare a sideboard for this situation?
Should I guess at the decks and board strongly against them or make the sideboard have an option or two for everything, compromising by not having killer spells for any one particular matchup?

The 'meta' will be very dependent on your local store, what's everyone else playing?
