Game Day and Sideboard Shakeup —Feb. 12, 2017

So I took this deck to my local game store for AER Game Day. I was pleased with the results, but feel that the deck's sideboard was a little clunky. Here are the games.

Game 1 vs. Mardu Vehicles: The deck was pretty much the same as the one that won the PT, so I stood no chance. Both games went long, but in the end, Heart of Kiran, Gideon, Ally of Zendikar, and Depala, Pilot Exemplar did me in. 0-1

Game 2 vs. Bant Panharmonicon: This was a crazy combo deck that used Felidar Guardian and Wispweaver Angel with Panharmonicon to generate infinite mana for Walking Ballista, along with value creatures like Verdurous Gearhulk and Cloudblazer. I won Game 1 on the back of Winding Constrictor, Fabrication Module, and Bristling Hydra. Game 2 went long and he comboed out. Game 3 I won quickly with Lathnu Hellions. 1-1

Game 3 vs. Pummeler: Basically an aggro mirror. Game 1 he smashed me flat on Turn 4 with Electrostatic Pummeler because I had no removal. Game 2, we both s,ashed eachother with Voltaic Brawlers, and I won on Turn 4. Game 3 he used pummeler on T5 with Blossoming Defense and Built to Smash for the win. 1-2

Game 3 vs. Grixis Control: Game 1 I had no answer to Thing in the Ice  Flip, and he countered my key spells. Game 2 and 3 I smashed him flat with Lathnu Hellions. 2-2

In all, I made Top 8, but the cut was to Top 4. Oh well, I placed 5th overall, so that's good. I find that Lathnu Hellion is really awesome, and that my sideboard is really not great. So, I'm changing it up a bit to be better positioned against the local metagame.
