What all did you end up side boarding in?

With my naya I end up only bringing in:
+ 3 {mending touch} 
+ 1 {revoke existence}
+ 2 {selesenyea charm}

I used to run one of {glare heresy} in the sideboard which dubbed for white weenies or brimaz decks/fm still messing with the sb. Honestly depends on how many boros burners I spot around playing the one mindless deck that finally got them top 8 :P forcing Te three {gift of orzhov} in.

7 ways of a turn three scoop to ruin their day :)

I took 2nd so stoked ran my white weenie splash blue for controll and green for strength.
Shocked me that I made it that far. I went
10-2-0 my only loss whas to the guy that took 1st he destroyed my deck tho first matc against azorious controll
2nd against mono black
3rd a boros burn( couldn't Handel my fiendslayer paladin)
4th bant     
That's what got me into the top 4   
Took all those down
1st round of the top 4
Played against a selesnya token deck I used
My {curse of swine} combo with {detention sphere} borde wipe swing for game won
Moved onto the top 2
Played against another mono black lost cause I mulliganed due to off color lands and than got smashed by desecration Demon didn't draw a single d sphere or fiendslayer fabled hero helped me stay alive a bit but it couldn't save me still had fun tho.

Got second with my Nayachants deck. Mostly if they couldn't kill my creature on turn three I beat the crap outta them. I lost only to Esper control. 4-1
I always get second to esper with my naya hexchantment :(

BaBa : what's wrong with the Boros Burner deck ?

I ended up top 1, two times out of the last four FNM at my store, and in the top 3 one other time. It is not as mindless as you think it is, I beleive. During the first few turns, there is a lot of decision making, choosing to burn the opponent or it's creatures. Making the right choice then makes all the difference in the world. Also, I discovered recently that I'm usually better burning my opponent for 4 with Boros Charm, rather than protect my Young Pyromancer with it, in response to any removal played against him (even early in the match). And I use agressively a very concentrated sidedeck (4 Peak Eruption, 4 Anger of the Gods, 3 Chained to the Rocks, 2 Fiendslayer Paladin, and 2 Fated Conflagration). I made the choice of running main deck 4 Skull Cracks, a card that most others don't see in that position. I think I crafted a very competitive deck, using absolutely no deck lists, but just good thinking and a lot of trial and errors.

Some opponents are very frustated losing to this deck. Frankly, I don't know why...
There's a fairly good deck the owner of my LGS made where he makes tons of tokens and burns the opponent to death using {Purphoros God of the forge}. It runs searing bloods, skull cracks, lightning strikes, molten Rebirths and Massive raids alongside cards like young pyromancer and satyr Firedancer to remove threats and deal loads of damage. It's top threed the last 6 FNMS

Yeah he's not cheating it though. He's not even to one who runs FNM

Finally...went 3-1 with my grixis midrange deck...wasn't completed due to needing a few jou cards but glad it wasn't...replaced the missing cards with {master of cruelties} and he did so much work for me...after last night I switched my deck up a little keeping him in ;)

DylanW18

Went 2-2. I saw a deck almost a lot like mine get 4-0. I'll be changing it a bit to look more like that one. Which means no {Desecration Demon}s or {Pack Rat}s, and hello {Courser of Kruphix} and {Reaper of the Wilds}

Sparkle Ninja

Ok. I tried running the old version of B/W Midrange and got stepped on by a Kruphix deck and an awesome mogis deck. Ended up beating a Minotaur tribal deck and a poorly made deck based around Kiora

TheRedRabble

I went 3-2 with red boros burn deck, list my first two but next 3

I like to say boros reckonor is a game stomper when u have 2 on the field

Final game was one like this .

Opponent is at 10, and is tapped out

Cards in my feild , young pyromancer, 2 Chandra's Phoenix

So I tapped one for shock for 2,
Tapped 2 played searing blood for 2
Them swung in for 6,
Game over

Seems to me that it's crazy to tell someone they shouldn't play a deck that beat you. Sounds to me like "I don't want to lose to that again, stop playing it!" :P

4-0 last fnm with my Naya Hexproof ☺️

I have been trying to make bant dominate but it's really hard.  I will post my deck later this evening and I'll ask anyone for some recommendations to changes I would need to make it tournament worthy.  I would really appreciate it.  Thanx
