I know it's going to rotate in a few months but why Overgrown Battlement instead of lotus cobra? lotus cobra seems so much better.

- Hero of Bladehold just doesn't seem to fit very well. There must be better creatures for this slot
- The deck needs equipment, 1 or 2 swords (maybe body and Mind) would make the deck better. Equipment makes the birds useful mid game, makes thrun into a killer, add more power to tokens etc...
- If you add the swords Mirran Crusader would be nice

because lotus cobra is a 1 toughness and the meta is aggro crazy right now. hero of bladehold is good in any deck. that much aggro and win condition in one card is heinous... swords would probably be good but i just got rid of my equipment package after stoneforge got banned. it really doesnt need it. Going to throw in wall of omens to make the battlements more gnarly, being able to tap for 2 green will be good when i wana see that turn 4 garruk...

Try running +4 Louts Cobra +1 titan, -3 day of judgement, -1 Garruk primal hunter, -1 Gideon. it will help your mana curve as well as provide you with the ramp to play third turn titan. the meta game is aggresive yes but in side bored you can have 4 kor fire walkers, 3 obstine baloths, 3 revoke existance, 3 Day of judgement, and 2 natures claim to deal with aggresive stratigies while keeping a good midrange and control game.

definitely be open as far as your sideboard goes. Those 15 cards are for your meta, so make sure you change it with your metagame.

The side bored is more tuned for higher level past fnm (PTG, Nats, ETC..) but i based it on beating red deck wins, hawkward, UB tezzeret control, and goblins. If you have any of thos threatining your current meta at you local store.
