Is the blue just for far/away

And for sideboard options, but main deck yes.

I would like to keep the blue for far/away. It's a strong card to help keep the board clear during attack phases so the desecration demon can strike. Devour flesh and crypt incursion have been two cards I've been eyeing for either my side board or mainboard but I like where it is right now.

I would think {tribute to hunger} would be better than {devour flesh} in this build anyways, as your win con does not revolve around mill, the lifegain might set you back more than the creature removal is worth
