Sideboard


This deck is basically what i would want to be running after m15 releases, and I get my hands on some of those great cards. I'm still trying to brainstorm what could be nice additions to Junk Midrange, any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

The idea of the deck is to take out their threats and disrupt their game plan until you can put yours on the field, which are gonna be bigger and better than whatever they have left. Then hit them with more removal and keep pumping out threats until they are overwhelmed.

Polukranos, World Eater, after having played him in several other decks, I realized that he is definitely worth 4 spots in the main 60 even if he is legendary. He is one of those creatures that you want on the field at all times. He is awesome, and can win games by himself.

Brimaz, King of Oreskos, one of my favorite cards to slam down on turn 3. He is absolutely amazing if they can't find an answer for him. He generates tokens which work well with Ajani Steadfast, and he survives a lot of burn and removal spells.

Sylvan Caryatid , probably one of the most important cards in the deck. Having this on the field ensures that I will almost always have the colors I need to help me pump out my threats every turn.

Courser of Kruphix, good source of card advantage by playing lands off the top of the deck, so we are always drawing more threats and answers. Plus he's a great blocker and avoids most burn and Bile Blights.

Obzedat, Ghost Council, this guy is one of the most difficult to deal with cards in standard right now. If you can't kill him at instant speed, he will ruin you. Once you are able to drop him on the field, your opponent will be on a pretty short clock.

Reaper of the Wilds , one of the more versatile cards in the deck with deathtouch and hexproof when you need them. He also pairs well with Brimaz, King of Oreskos and Elspeth, Sun's Champion because their tokens usually die pretty easily allowing me to scry and dig into the deck for the cards I need.

Garruk, Apex Predator , the most exciting card of the new set. I am anxiously awaiting his arrival in this deck, and I think he is going to be a force to be reckoned with. His first +1 ability is very relevant right now, and his second +1 is great for filling up the board with deathtouch beast tokens.

Ajani Steadfast, I can't wait to see what he can do in this deck. His +1 is amazing when paired with the large threats we will have on the field, and his -2 will allow us to reach our other planeswalker's ultimates faster and easier, and it puts counters on all my creatures which includes all the tokens that are produced.

Elspeth, Sun's Champion, almost no explanation needed. She can win games on her own, and she is one of the best threats in the deck. Her -3 ability doesn't normally work so well in this case, as most of the creatures have a power more than 4. I mainly use her +1 to populate the field with little soldiers that we can make bigger with Ajani Steadfast.

Thoughtseize, one of the best cards in standard right now, this card is very crucial to play early game to disrupt their hand and destroy their game plan so we can dominate the field.

Hero's Downfall, a much needed instant speed non-biased kill all. The double black mana can sometimes be a pain, but this is one of the best removal spells in standard, and it works very well for what we're trying to accomplish.

Abrupt Decay, this card can hit a lot of over played cards in standard, and for only 2 mana and instant speed. It's also good against blue decks because it can't be countered.

Banishing Light, finally we get Oblivion Ring back! This card is great for getting rid of enchantments that we can't deal with, or even those pesky gods. Just another non-biased removal spell that hits just about everything.
