RDW Sideboard vs. Control

Standard forum

What are some of the best sideboard options for RDW vs. the current Esper and U/B Dragon Control decks? Every time I match up with one, it seems to be close, but I can't put the final damage on to finish the game.

Eidolon of the Great Revel ?

Outpost Siege! The control decks have little to no interaction with this card. Both of its modes are relevant at any stage of the game.

As an Esper Dragons player, i would rather let a rabblemaster resolve than the siege lol.

Collateral Damage is nice.

I'm toying with the following. Let me know what you think.

4 Eidolon of the Great Revel

3 Outpost Siege

4 Roast (vs. Abzan)

4 Arc Lightning or Searing Blood vs. (RDW)

I like Impact Tremors and Collateral Damage, as well as Outpost Siege against control.

I also like Circle of Flame against the mirror 'cuz red has no answers to enchantments, at all, and they can barely touch you outside of burns with Circle up (unless they're running a Hall of Triumph or creatures with >1 toughness).
