No sideboard found.

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

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 the Red Black preset deck Pressure Cooker from Odyssey. It is a very fun deck to play but some of the cards lack a little pizzaz. That being said I am looking for ways to modify the deck to make it really fantastic without losing the core of what makes this deck so fun to play.

Also, sideboard suggestions would be welcome.

Deck discussion for Pressure Cooker +

I took a look at your deck, and there seems to be alot going on here. With that being said, what is it that you specifically like about the deck? (ie the burn cards, the weenie cards, or discard cards) because i think it would be effective if you focused in on a specific theme (which i think i see three running through the deck right now) to focus in on.

After that, some more general thoughts on R/B builds that could improve just about any black deck (and these are only if you have some money to drop) are:

1) Dark Confidants - I noticed many of the cards in your deck involve you discarding cards of your own, however i didn't notice many things to gain you additional cards. Regardless of which direction you take your deck, i feel this would be a good addition. I personally use them in just about any black deck - either duel color or mono, for this purpose.

2) Fetchlands and DuelLands - If your gonna play duel color these are a must have and definately worth the investment. For b/r look at bloodstained mire for a fetchland. This will not only help with mana color issues you may have, but will weed out land from your library for later rounds when you may need a kill card. Plus they let you get any swamp or mountain from your deck... which brings me to my next suggestion - Duel Lands. DuelLands such as badlands (or if you don't want to shell out that much cash, blood crypt) work well not only for your various mana color needs, but coupled with bloodstained mire you will be able to fetch these rather than a basic swamp and or mountain. With these cards you shouldn't need such things as you shadowblood egg, bog wretches and ravaged highland cards.

Hope this helps
