Sideboard


Dinosaur Tribal EDH deck that's been heavily played and tuned and re-tuned. I've depowered it a bit recently to better fit my meta.

The deck is fast and hard hitting, but it's got a bit of a glass jaw. It doesn't take a lot of disruption to totally wreck the game plan, and even on the cusp of victory a well timed boardwipe can prove fatal. Still, it's probably my favorite deck to pilot, as it's often underestimated by other players. Though sometimes it's also overestimated especially by newer players.

The main game plan is to ramp as fast as possible to 8 mana, cast Gishath when people have their guards down and start building an unbeatable board state. Giving Gishath Doublestrike often leads to kills through Commander Damage, as well as many many dinosaur triggers, so I have many enablers for that.

Berserkers' Onslaught + Duelist's Heritage + Goring Ceratops for permanent double strike and Boros Charm + Sunhome, Fortress of the Legion for temporary.

Board wipes are our biggest enemy, so we have several ways of protecting the board.

Boros Charm + Flawless Maneuver + Heroic Intervention

~~I've found the key to winning pods with this deck is SPEED above all else. If you can land Gishath on turn 4 or 5 people will simply not be ready for it. And Fast Mana is key to doing so.~~ This is where I've made most of my cuts. I took out the fast mana, and added more card draw and basic ramp. Thing is that by pushing this deck to hard it was very swingy. Either I won on turn 4 or 5, or I got shut down by decks with stronger gameplans and couldn't do anything for most of the game. With this I've tuned it to a lower power level where hopefully I can bring this to tables without crazy competition and get good solid games.

Thanks for Reading!
