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 my backup FNM deck. I would like for this deck to be a top contender at magic tournaments.
(My current deck, http://mtgvault.com/kjsj3/decks/esper-fnm-standard/.)

Any thoughts on improving the deck or the sideboard?


I originally had 2 Stormtide in the deck to eventually switch for Sigarda. Should I leave the 2 Stormtide in the deck or should I switch to 2 Sigarda when (if) I get another one?

Thanks for looking at this deck.

Eventually I'll get around to posting a Dark Bant version of this deck.

How does this deck actually do at FNM?
It's quite unusual for FNM at the places I play.

A few things.
What do you use the simic charms for? Azorious charms are much, much better.
You don't have any removal. I'd put in at least 2-3 oblivion rings.
Sideboard should have blind obedience in it. At least 2. (TBH i'd main board them over favorable winds but my stores have a lot of agro decks.)
Not sure about Shriekgeist. Youre not playing a mill deck so it's a 1/1 for 2 mana which is generally terrible.
Regarding Stormtide Leviathan, at 8 mana cost in a 22 land deck with no mana ramp at all i can practically guarantee youre never going to get to play it. Certainly not early enough to matter at all.
This deck should also have sphinx's rev in it and probably geist of st traft but im suspecting that's a cost issue.

I have not tested it at FNM so I don't know how it will do there, though I have tested it with friends and it has done well. I have simic charms in because my azorius charms are in my esper deck that I normally run. Also, when I made the deck I couldn't find any of my o-rings. I would like to get my hands on and add the cards you mentioned, but I went with what I had, not what I would like.
