Standard Grixis Card Alternatives?
Deck Help forum
Posted on Nov. 2, 2013, 4:14 a.m. by Beetall
Hey everyone, I'm working on my standard Grixis control (as always) and there were a few cards that underperformed today and I'm looking for possible alternatives for my deck,
I Am Control, No Way You Can Chain Me
First off, I'm looking for an instant-speed replacement for AEtherize that can either provide removal or card advantage. (either is fine, but the card draw in the deck is lacking...)
Secondly, we have Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius . Should I just replace him with another 'better' win-con like Master of Cruelties or Stormbreath Dragon , or should I just replace him with a semi-wall such as Prognostic Sphinx ?
In the sideboard, I'm looking for possible alternatives to Ral Zarek
and Cyclonic Rift
.
Currently it's hard to predict what to see in the current meta, but for the most part, I feel like my deck is pretty strong against most matchups. That being said, some popular decks at my local shop are Naya midrange, Mono-Blue, and Mono-Black.
Any ideas on replacements would be GREATLY appreciated!
