Sideboard


Suggestions Are Welcome

A Burn Deck I Built For My Neighbor And Might Be Used By My Friend In Maine. I Consider This Deck A Naya Burn Deck Mainly Due To Its Sideboard And Lands.

-----------------------------------------------------------------Main----------------------------------------------------------------

Creatures (12):

4x Eidolon of the Great Revel - This card is useful in modern with the abundance of efficient 3 or lower cost spells.

4x Goblin Guide - Kind of self-explanatory, it is currently the face of all creatures included in modern burn decks

4x Monastery Swiftspear - This can be as good, if not better, than goblin guide. This deck utilizes plenty of instants and sorceries, so prowess can turn the swiftspear into a heavy hitter.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Instants (20):

4x Boros Charm - This is a very versatile spell for . The first and third abilities are the most effective for this deck.

4x Lightning Bolt - This is the burn spell that is the basis of this deck. It is used in almost every deck that runs red and for good reason.

4x Lightning Helix - This is a burn spell that is a better version of Lightning Strike that can save you in games with that 3 life gain.

4x Searing Blaze - This is a burn spell that is very effective against heavy creatures. With land fall it is basically a slightly more restricted version of Lightning Bolt .

4x Skullcrack - This is a burn spell that is very good against decks like devoted company (You can see this deck list on the Mana Source's youtube channel) and makes sure that damage cannot be prevented by the player

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sorceries (8):

4x Rift Bolt - This is a burn spell that you suspend for 1 turn and becomes a usable lightning bolt on your turn. It is also good because it means the opponent can't play a dangerous card on their turn before the rift bolt is up, without it most likely facing removal.

4x Lava Spike - This is a burn spell that is an acceptable copy of lightning bolt. Although it is sorcery speed and can't kill creatures.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-----------------------------------------------------------------Side----------------------------------------------------------------

2x Deflecting Palm - This is a spell that is useful for decks that try to want to wipe out all your life by one large creature. It works on hexproof creatures because it doesn't say target creature and works on Leyline of Sanctity because it doesn't say target player.

4x Destructive Revelry - This is a spell that is useful for artifact-focused decks like Affinity and good at taking out enchantments, namely Leyline of Sanctity . It also deals damage to the opponent, like burn spells.

2x Kor Firewalker - This is a good creature that is a good match up if you play another burn deck.

2x Molten Rain - This is a spell that is good against Tron, Affinity, and Valakut that all utilize lands that are very effective like the blinkmoths, urza's lands and Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle .

3x Path to Exile - This is a spell that is very effective against big creatures that can't be killed by spells like lightning bolt. It is especially good against matchups like: Eldrazi Tron, Death's Shadow, Jund and Junk

2x Relic of Progenitus - This is an artifact that is good agaisnt matchups like control and dredge because they both utilize their graveyards.
