I am curious if I should mainboard 4x Overgrown Tomb ? That way they won't take up 4 extra slots in my sb.
take a look at my deck and let me know what you think :)

I think u need a better splash. 4x Overgrown Tomb won't be consistent or reliable to cast your Abrupt Decay s. I would add 4x Woodland Cemetery MB as well. Cheap easy fix.
Also keep in mind that Affinity is the budget deck of modern so MBing Go for the Throat is like MBing Doom Blade .

Okay, so there will be lots of affinity decks? Maybe I should sideboard the Go for the Throat and main board Golgari Charm for enchantment hate and boardwipes for the fairies from Bitterblossom ?

Well ur meta may be different, But Affinity and Infect r probably the cheapest proven decks in modern. Go for the Throat misses Ichorclaw Myr and Inkmoth Nexus .
4x Abrupt Decay and 2-3 Maelstrom Pulse is my go to removal package. As it hits just about everything. Save Mirran Crusader .
Victim of Night or Dismember or Smother is what I'd run in mono black.Devour in Shadow depending on the build.

Maelstrom Pulse seems really slow, and I have way too many 3 drops.
I like Smother and Victim of Night , I will play test this out and see

playing one game one gives away any secret sideboard tech before game 2. By the question I already figured Abrupt Decay was in the sb before looking at the list. you could, but you have to becareful how/when you play it game 1.
