1 {Sun Titan}
2 {Tormod's Crypt}
2 {Zealous Conscripts}

15 sideboard cards



Notes:
I went for a Frites build for the challenge. Except I made it a little more aggressive. For my sideboard choses I chose cards good against the meta. Tormond's crypt is good against the mirror and delver decks. Conscript is good against any creature deck. An extra bonfire just in case. Revoke for swords or o-rings, and an extra o-ring for cards other then artifacts and enchantments. Extra pillars for creature decks like zombies or delver. The sun Titan is there because it interacts with alot of the cards in this deck. Ghost quarter for bothersome lands.

Restoration angel works in this deck as early beats or to save the bigger creatures. Thundermaw is a great finisher in this deck.
