Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

This is a casual variant on what could be VERY easily competitive-
add check lands,
take out manaweft sliver for intangible virtue
hive stirrings for gather the townsfolk

The deck is as it is because it is ALL legal after Theros rotation and can make for a very strong base.

Happily taking suggestions for post rotation legal cards!

How to Play

Sideboard:
-Boros Reckoner: 18 of 21 lands work for playing this card, which seems fine. This goes in against aggro, for obvious reasons of making blocks ugly for anyone.

-Assemble the Legion: This goes in against control. It is resilient against board wipes and removal in general. It gets a MAJOR buff from Path of Bravery, and can get put out more quickly from Manaweft Sliver.

-Rest in Peace: This is against Junk Aristocrats, Reanimator, and Flashback decks. The other option is Scavenging Ooze, but it is too mana intensive for my taste. With RIP, you pay two mana, put this down, and you're done.

-Boros Charm: Good card overall, heh. But the first reason this got in here is because Ratchet Bomb is a card again, and that hoses the deck pretty badly. This can make for a nice surprise against it and make people question your deck choice less. It also goes in against control for more late game damage.

-Electrickery: One damage is more relevant than you'd think. It can hit spirit tokens and mana guys. I'm a bit shaky as to how often it comes up though. Thoughts?

-Pithing Needle: Again, Ratchet Bomb is a card. Aetherling is also a card.

Assemble the Legion seems good for the control matchup yeah; nice against board wipes that get through, and there is the added bonus that Manaweft Sliver will sometimes ramp into it.

Growing Ranks doesn't feel right for this deck though. Against aggro, it comes in too late by cost and the effect for full value takes too long. Against control, it fails after board wipe. Maybe there's something I'm missing?

Thanks for the suggestions!
