Standard forum

So are there any good sideboard options in BUG colors against Mono Black Devotion? I am getting back into standard after a month or so hiatus to gear up for the spring tournaments coming into town.
So far the only things I can think of to combat MBD would be Dark Betrayal
and maybe Gaze of Granite
.
My deck is obviously BUG. Mainboard it plays more like a Midrange deck. My sideboard against control is devastating to their game. Blitz eats it pretty hard against me. Mono black devotion seems to do the most work to me. That gray merchant business gets me out of nowhere sometimes and the pack rat activations are fucking me all up.
What are good options against MBD? It is a very popular deck at the moment and very easy to pilot, (So easy to pilot, that my 7 year old daughter kicked the shit out of me with a slightly different version).

Pithing Needle the rat and maybe swamps and Abrupt Decay the specters, connections, key devotion
Also vraska kills everything besides land. Also also duress

I always get rid of Desecration Demon and Nightveil Specter with Sedge Scorpion and Pit Fight or Arbor Colossus . But you probably don't run Cancer or Arbor in a BUG deck...
