Memo
2012年11月7日Probably this:
4 Dread of Night
4 Xantid Swarm
3 Decay
2 CoV
1 Bayou
1 EtW
I’d like the third CoV but I don’t want to cut anything else (might go to 3 DoN, 3 CoV after some more testing). If Reanimator and Dredge come out of the woodwork I’ll have to figure out how to make room for a few Crypts or Karakas but for the moment I feel ok just relying on Xantid a lot to blank GriselB against Reanimator and hope to race Dredge.
@Sloshthedark: We seem to be playing this deck very differently. I hate having Tendrils in hand. I’ll have to experiment with a playstyle closer to yours to learn how to adopt it at will, might help eek out games I can’t win with my usual preferences. Second PiF obviously helps with the draw Tendrils plan, too.
As for the Bayou, there are two Seas and a Swamp, which seems like enough B sources, usually. Almost any hand without blue is a mulligan imo, so I want to have an absolute minimum of non-blue lands. I’m fine with the SB Bayou because its a 16th land or comes in for the Swamp.
Second the karakas idea. The card is actually insanely good, at least infinitely better than DoN in storm sideboards. I put 3 in my sideboard and haven’t looked back. The card has so much utility unlike DoN. Against reanimator I singlehandedly beat them because I played karakas directly after he reanimated griselbrand. If griselbrand draws him seven cards a turn I’m almost certainly not winning that game.
Dark confidant against maverick? That matchup is easy as soon as you include karakas + virtue’s ruin. If you lose that matchup with this sideboard I would be amazed:
4 Abrupt Decay
1 Trop
1 Bayou
3 Karakas
3 Virtue’s Ruin
2 Chain of Vapor
1 Tendrils
The matchup becomes a cakewalk when you get to board in 12 cards +2 lands for AD. You’d have to punt pretty hard to lose against maverick with this sideboard. Not to mention the only card that is relegated to just maverick + the odd fringe decks you might come across is virtue’s ruin. Chain of vapor is a solid card. Abrupt decay answer CB, and that card gives me headaches when it’s in play. Karakas is good against anything relying on legends to win outside of clique.
