Standard Sideboard

[Kaleo42]

M13 is out now. What do you think we should change in our sideboards? Are their new cards and achitypes we should all be siding against or do you believe the meta is fairly stable and not many changes are needed despite the new cards?

Token control, post rotation. What is everyone's feeling about {Ratchet Bomb}? Was it too powerful? What is not powerful enough?

[Kaleo42]

I feel its too meta based. I have one deck with a good pilot at my LGS that has heavy tokens therefore i dont make room for ratchet since {bonfire of the damned} is enough. The real hit comes from the fact that tokens are mosty fightin along side 1 and 2 drops so its hard to decide what to ratchet.

I'm running a exalted deck white with a splash of blue to stop my opponents from crushing field wipe damage.  I don't want any cards from the block falling off in oct.  so sideboard ATM is 2 obliv rings and 2 fiend hunters the other two of each are main deck.  I'm running some champ of parish silver blade palidans etc. basically an Argo deck.  I also have three nevermore side boarded.  Any suggestions?

[Kaleo42]

What do you need to side against? {celestial purge} and {revoke existence} are worth siding regardless of them rotating out 8 fnms from now.

I always keep Eldrazi in my sideboard for that one time when I might need {Spawnsire of Ulamog} lol

If you're black, and can get to 5 mana, {Curse of Death's Hold} is a good sideboard card. As is {Sever the Bloodline}

I cat remember the name of the card (it would help if someone else did =p) but the effect was like tap on one turn to add a charge or it's other effect was tap and destroy all perminants with concerted mana cost of amount of charges on the artifact... My delivers and suped up phantasims all got PWNd by that card

{Ratchet Bomb}?  The card is awesome against token's and decks that rely heavily on flipped creatures.

I run a mono R goblin deck that seems to run perfectly untill I run into a curse of deaths hold something of the like. I don't even have a sb made at all. I was thinking of makeing my sb all into a splash of green for things thing naturalize rootbound crag and plummet any suggestions?

Personally, i'd try to speed up more. If theyre running a 5 cost curse that gives you 4-6 turns to attack and the rest of the game to burn. {thunderous wrath} plus {reverberate} would be a great next turn response to curse. Also you can {reverberate} counter spells to counter their counter, copy your spell to push atleast one copy through, hit them with their own {bonfire of the damned} or {entreat the angels}. For slightly less aggro decks i believe {reverberate} is you best sideboard option.

I'm running a {B}/{W} with a splash of {G} exalted deck, and I've never had to worry about building a sideboard, so what are some tips and things I should be adding? Please and thank you.

[Kaleo42]

I dont hace time for specifics at the moment, but the basis of a sideboard is identify your weak points such as flying, direct damage, wrath, infect, ect. Then find cards that will help tweak your deck against those things.

May I suggest tormod's crypt

The uses will be many while it also replaces nihil spellbomb
