Heyo. I run a mono-green aggro swarm deck

I have a few ideas for the sideboard, but my main concern is siding in against Soul Sisters. I would like some suggestions to make the matchup a little better.

What is the meta like aside from Soul Sisters?

Red elementals, Red burn, R/G Tron, and Soul Sisters are all i remember. My last time there I trashed Red Elementals and Burn, so I'm good there. It's soul sisters I had trouble with.

I would say for sisters to put in Torpor Orb. That prevents Serra Ascendant from getting huge early.

Yea, I though that as well. The only problem is it shuts my deck down as well.

buildingadeck No, it prevents Serra Ascendant from getting huge late. Martyr of Sands is what gives you a T2 6/6 flying lifelinker.

I'd definitely build the sideboard to the T1 and some harder T2 decks. Rogue brews are nothing to worry about, and since they are sporadic in nature, sideboarding is pretty bad against them. Focus on making hard tier matches better.

As for the T1/T2 decks, I have some Beast Within, Naturalize/Nature's Claim, Pithing Needle, and a few Plummet. It's a rough sideboard but it works.
