I need help on my sideboard. I'm not sure what I need because this is my first time building a planeswalker deck.

Honestly in would take out the liliana of the veil and run another one or two sideboard

She is just so hard to play and stay in board with her two swamp cost in a three color deck

There is naturalize for artifact or enchantment removal

Underworld connections for drawing against control decks

Could also board Thragtusk if you feel you need the life gain against aggro decks

I like the {Intangible Virtue}. I never thought of putting it in. Although I don't want to drop the O-Rings.

Honestly, I don't like main boarding o-rings cause you are running lingering souls and abrupt decay, teriminus

That's so much control/lock down right there

Plus they may be dead cards if your opponent doesn't have any big bombs you feel need to be ringed

Could run the seleanya charm for sideboard if you feel like you need the extra pump or tokens

And should add another lil or two the sideboard, you may not have them, but you can get them

And sever the bloodline is great for Sideboard against zombie decks

i thought about {Blood Artist}. There just wasn't room for him so he was cut.

I just don't like vraska

She seems so slow an her best is her -2 ns you are paying 5 mana for a Kill card when there are so many less cmc and better utility ones? She just seems worthless in my eyes

I'm gonna say it again, {Thragtusk} he is just too good...

Garruk relentless..?

Post by: Mothaelon on October 11, 2012, 06:55:26 PM
I also don't like ajani much, he seems to not really have a home to me, his -2 is great, but outside of that, meh

Replace the ajani with with garruk relentless, I ran 2 in my junk token deck and he's pretty good ( I used to use his 3 dmg ability to turn doomed traveler into spirit, then use the morbid ability on caravan vigil to get land on the field.)

You also have to remember the PW rule if you run both garruks

I'd Also like to know garruk primal hunter purpose

The token or the draw?

both, his 3/3's are great in a token deck. And you draw cards. The point of vraska is to actually pop her off for the token, her -2 is a "if I have to ability" in this deck.

Really shouldn't use vraska, that's just my opinion

She is just not a great card in my eyes, but people see it differently

I feel that way about the new jace, IMO he's garbage. But alot of people think otherwise.

Don't run 3 vraska. Since you only like her for the ultimate, run 2 or (better) 1. And ajani isn't that good since he dies to decay and you mostly just have 1/1s. Maybe try other walkers and see out it goes? Good lucktesting and good luck at fnm.
