Sideboard


I love this deck. it's so fun. it's fastest win is turn 4. i'm not actually looking for suggestions... :P

I don't know why tapped out is showing Verdurous Gearhulk as illegal for standard...

Let's see:

20 lands + 4Servant of the Conduits + 4 Attune with Aether = 28 drawable mana sources (feels more like 24 in practice)... 4x Aether Hub + 4 Attune with Aether + 4 Servant of the Conduit = 12 mana sources for ANY color. so i usually never end up mana screwed based on colors... just the normal deck farts when you don't draw more than 2 lands

and about drawing lands... you only need 3 lands and you can win on turn 4. Four lands is only needed for the hydras, which are in the deck for long game as they are the stickiest of the icky... i put that gearhulk in there just for flavor of the brew.

so the basic power in the deck comes from the Electrostatic Pummeler + Larger Than Life combo + 6 energy combination.... you end up with a 20/20 trample creature. this can be pulled off on turn 4, under the right circumstances... sometimes, you have to hold back 1 or 2 turns to build up a 4th land or draw into a Blossoming Defense.

Larger Than Life is a finisher card... along with Key to the City. both let you dump damage directly into your enemies health. Essence Flux + Blossoming Defense gives you efficient jukes to dodge enemy spells. Dispell in the sideboard comes in as anti-counterspells.

Voltaic Brawler, Longtusk Cub, and Lathnu Hellion all make up a line of creatures that come out and swing for the fence. My strategy is to simply not block... i just keep swinging and outrace the opponent.

Bristling Hydra is for long game play... it gets big and stays around.. usually you can do 8-12 points of damage before you ever pull this guy out... sometimes you pull him out on turn 3 and watch as your opponent tries desperately to remove him...

Harsh Scrutiny is great for getting rid of annoying creatures before they ever come out. also it lets you scry.

Vines of the Recluse hits Spell Queller everytime! lolz also useful against Smuggler's Copter and Archangel Avacyn

Appetite for the Unnatural is sometimes usefull and the Woodland Wanderers are just great against basically anything that doesn't use too much removal... like the occasional mirror match :D
