I will say this before people pick it apart: The thoughtseize sideboard is a meta call. There are many aggro decks locally where a thoughtseize is less useful than something like a kill spell or a creature, and for that same reason i also run gaze of granite main. it has saved my life more times than it has hurt me or been a dead draw. With that in mind, are there any suggestions yall may be able to provide?
I may switch out Gary for {Reaper of the Wilds} if you are facing a lot of agro decks.
Also I don't know what you'd want to remove but maybe look into {Lotleth Troll} regeneration is pretty big even more so if you keep in boon sayter.
Personally I'd run 2 golgari charm main in this build.. -1/-1 will be relevant against aggro decks and the card is great against control matches where supreme verdict wrecks your face...
so what i hear is
main
-2 {Gray merchant of asphodel}
-2 {Skylasher}
-1 {Vraska the unseen}
-1 ???
+2 {Reaper of the wilds}
+2 {golgari charm}
+2 {Lotleth Troll}
side
+1 Gary
+1 vraska
-1 charm
-1 pain seer
I'd keep vraska main and take out a nemesis if you have to, mostly since you said you are playing heavy agro, she is a nice road bump. Probably just take out of those due to the scavenging ooz and that most your cards aren't adding extra to the gy to get him out that much faster. Ideally you want your creatures alive on the battle field still by turn 5-7. Maybe another 2 oozes too. It's a great way to keep your opponent from wiping your board.
Don't the oozes and nemesis kind if work against each other? Oozes feed on the graveyard and nemesis needs plenty of creatures in the graveyard to make him cheaper. Is there another creature that would synergize better?
i think i want the oozes in the side, so they dont fight the oozes until G2 if i sided them in. i also think i need a spot for some commune with the gods, im tired of milling out my whips on accident when they serve as an alternate win con. I went 3-1 with this deck, thinking about taking it to a 5K in 2 weeks. Should i scrap it or no?
Sorry, im either doing a variant of this, or im doing selesnya auras
Don't scrap, I like the ideas in it. I just think you need to focus it. Really figure out what the end goal is. And there are to get stuff back like treasured find.
And I really think you need to figure out if you want to stuff the gy for oozes and death right or if your stuffing it to bring back, and maybe try a theros style reanimater deck.
Sorry if I'm not being clear.
