Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (15 cards)

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.


How to Play

Altar of the Brood > Liquimetal Coating > Saheeli Rai = infinite milling
That is the main win con of the deck. I also added in Tezz and Chandra for another win in the mainboard.

Deck discussion for Walking the Altar

very interresting mill deck.
I can recommend the use of welding jar or some other way to protect the bridge.
Also sage of epityr may have a weak vision effect, but it can block. (Or use insolent neonate)

I've been thinking!

Doesn't oath of nissa counter the theme of finding the bridge? It will place both bridges and ancient stirrings on the bottom library, potentially removing them from the top where they could be drawn within few turns!

The main deck could really benefit from a Rest in Peace effect. I proxied this deck and turned 3 someone with the combo, but they had Emrakul in the deck. It's not a good feeling when you're comboing off on turn 3 and the opponent shows you an Emrakul, Aeons Torn. You give all the information to the opponent and be down a game (if you cannot pull it together), where they can sideboard to break up the combo more efficiently. Don't get me wrong! This deck is much more consistent at hitting the combo than my initial version of this deck, so the list was definietly worth looking into, but I like the grixis version of this deck that's running Bitter Ordeal and Relic of Progenitus mainboard. It just feels right. I suggest if you play this list that you sub cards out of the main for graveyard hate and solidify your position, n the era of Dredge (and that pesky Emrakul)! It's a win-win.

Surgical Extraction also helps with the Tentacruel problem.
