The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

A jeskai Ascendancy deck, with all the pieces of Ensoulnathopter in case you can't draw a retraction helix.
Drop artifacts (especially altars, I have milled someone out without the combo while playtesting 3 altars and 2 fetches) early, and ensoul one up and start beating with it. The best choices to enchant are the citadel and thopter, both because you arn't risking a combo piece and because the thopter will have flying, the citadel will be indestructible. A 5/5 flying attacking on turn 2 is very hard to deal with in standard. A 5/5 indestructible on turn 3 is tougher. To combo out, get jeskai Ascendancy out, as well as tormod's cript or briber's purse, as well as a creature to retraction helix. Keep bouncing the 0 mana artifact, and in the end swing with an infinite powered unblockable shoretheif or mill them out with the altar.

Could anyone give me ideas for the sideboard?

Combo decks are complicated with sideboards, anything you take out will most likely take away from your win condition
Midnight Guard over Triton Shorestalker for more hits in the combo? Although I'm seeing now the need for unblockable with the ascendency...tough decisions
