{immortal servitude} is better imo.

Maybe.... but it's 4 mana. (For the same effect, basically). I might want to use that extra 1 to cast another soul sister.

Also, I won't need to get Norin back as he's unkillable! ;)

Sideboard

2 Wear // Tear
2 Suppression Field
1 Dismember
2 Blood Moon
1 Path to Exile
2 Brave the Elements
2 Stony Silence
1 Leyline of Sanctity
2 Grafdigger's Cage
15 sideboard cards


Maybe... cut the leyline for proclamation? Or do I need it against storm and burn? Maybe get rid of supression field?

Ekann1

{Stony Silence}
{Grafdigger's Cage}
{Suppression Field}

These are all good against pod. I don't need 6 things to stop it (I don't think) so I feel like I could cut 1-2 for a {Proclamation of Rebirth}. Which are the least useful of these? Personally I'd cut the {Suppression Fields}s. Thoughts?

Ekann1

What do I do about affinity? I guess that's what the supression fields and stony silences are there for.... but I want to cut the supression fields. UGH! Decisions decisions. 

Anyone who knows the modern metagame a bit better have ideas?

A T2 {Stony Silence} can wreck them!! Also {Wear//Tear} is a great utility card for you!

The way that I see side boarding is this:

1. What decks to I expect?
2. Look at the card.
3. What does it come in against?
4. How many of the decks that I expect does this card come in.

Usually in order for it to be in my SB #4 will have to be 2-3 unless it's needed against a matchup.

SO, looking at {Supression Field} what is it good against?

1. Any Twin variant
2. Affinity
3. Tron lol jk
Actual 3. Would be zoo.

BUT as I was typing this I realized that SF is a control Card wouldn't you much rather just have a card that can end them on spot say bolt or heck even {Ash Zealot} lol

Ekann1

Seems like I have only 4 sideboard cards against affinity, which could be a problem. So I should leave SF in. But I want proclamation of rebirth too. What is the weakest/least useful card in this sideboard?

Ekann1

Maybe.... cut the dismember? It seems kinda random. What's it for... Zoo? 4 life is too much. Affinity? 4 life is a lot. .... Stormbreath dragon? Thundermaw?

{Thundermaw Hellkite} is but it's a 2-of in MURICA midrange. Dragon isn't seeing play YET (my play group is texting Dragon bc pro white in Modern can be nice)

Ekann1

Right, that's what I was wondering why there is a dismember SB.

I'm having trouble beating bogle/hexproof decks in my testing. Ideas?
