Alright.
When I get the time I will write what cards for each color are good agaist each deck.
Against any deck that runs white, or green. {Lifebane Zombie} does some work. Also if you need an answer to aetherling, {Debtor's Pulpit} destroys aetherling, so does pithing needle. I have thought about using {Carnage Gladiator} in my Jund aristocrats sideboard.
What to sideboard post rotation?
Pithing needle
{Ratchet bomb}
{Burning Earth}!
Maybe if there was an extensive article of the ins/outs of a sideboard and how to use it efficiently that might help with this
I feel like {Bramblecrush} is an underutilized answer for planeswalkers
{glaring spotlight} vs {ratchet bomb}? Is tokens or hexproof more played?

That's a meta call. I run neither in my sb but that's cuz my meta is aggro and control. Maybe a couple midrange decks.
My sideboard is 3 {lifebane zombie}, 3 {centaur healer}, 3 {Pithing needle}, 2 {ratchet bomb}, 2 {golgari charm}, 2 {rescue from the underworld}. I'm running {B}{G}{W} reanimator.

Honestly though, {ratchet bomb} is such a good SB card against a lot of decks though, not just tokens.
Your playing aggro? I'll take out all your 2 drops! Or your 3 drops and grab that Domri while I'm at it!
Seriously ratchet bomb is the cure all. How many 1 or 2 drops does aggro play. Just pull your punches for a little then wham #halfboardwipe.com
Can someone help me with my deck build?
I'd cut 1-2 gods willing.
Possibly {Doomblade} or {Duress} over gods willing. Gods willing doesn't do much for esper, and add Doomblade for the slight chance that you're not playing against mono black, and duress for mono black and/or control
Uuugh... {Devour Flesh}. Anything stop it?
Any counterspell really... or you could use {Mutavault} against. it tap the vault to turn it into a creature then sac it to {Devour Flesh}

Yea I like the vault idea. I'm running g/w auras so no counter spells.
Ok, well there you go then. And could you please go take a look at my Modern T5 win deck? I need more suggestions
In the last Grand Prix burn decks showed up in top 8 while no control decks did. I won 3/4 matches at fnm. I was taken down by a burn deck similar to the ones top 8 in the Grand Prix. I'm thinking fiendslayer paldins are a good sideboard card for control against them. Any suggestions for other side board cards against burn?

{Beckon Apparition}.
Thoughts on {Mindsparker} for burn and control matchups

It doesn't do enough against control because they'll just blow it up and then sphinxes rev to get tons of life. Against burn they don't usually play enough white to justify it. So I don't think it's good enough
Just wanted to bring it up, cause it appears to be updated with the latest blocks/sets for standard, but the locked topic mentions that a sideboard has to be exactly 15 cards. This is no longer the case. It can be UP TO 15. This was changed during the M14 changes.

I didn't know that
So who uses {infinite obliteration} ?
Nothing feels more satisfying than t3 obliterate siege rhino or ojutai

I use it, but I feel like {deathmist raptor} or {den protecter} is my bet
Those are good targets too, just makes me happy to take 1-2 rhinos t3
