SB games/charm. -2 burning earth, havoc festival, showstopper. +4 duress/thoughtsieze, +2 rakdos's return, +1 sire of insanity, +4 read the bones, +3 lightning strike. Just a suggestion.

Barrel through them. Make them counter things you want them to so they can't counter more important spells. Just remember they gain life like crazy on top of drawing large numbers of cards. Maybe use erebos to stop their life gain and improve card draw. I think this would work better if you splash red into the black devotion build.

Also pithing needle is one of the best answers to aetherling and planeswalkers.

So should pithing needle be a sideboard or in main deck?

glaring spotlight could be useful on the side board Also Erebos is great to stop life gain

I'm not sure what you're trying to do here, but I don't see it beating u/w control unless you get very lucky.

Same here. BE will prob kill him before the control deck does.

If you want to play these colors I'd also recommend rakdos return and thought seize. You will also want to run a few smaller creatures to bait removal and counters. Maybe cackler or spike jester. In addition, I'd consider cutting burning earth entirely and use something that can boardwipe instead. Remember that u/w is only going to be about an eight of the field most of the time.

and havoc festivle is terrible...just aweful...unless you build around it, but it is just too slow to make any difference in the long run.

I think you should sideboard the slaughter games and add 2 more rakdos charms and 2 more sire of insanity. Also if you could check out my deck and give me some advice it'd be much appreciated!

Underworld connection, permanents that draw cards are a great way to gain advantage from sire of insanity

Anger of the gods would also be pretty important for your deck. You will not have alot of prensence early in the game.

I like the deck. Your main board is almost identical to my sideboard. Take a look at mine for some ideas of what to sideboard in for aggro matchups. Try to prepare for everything!
