A pretty rough start on my own Noyan Dar. There are many that are already pretty far along on being great so I am looking to follow in their footsteps. Although I am still needing to get actual land creatures still, so that's a long way to go.

Things I know to look for beyond that though are:

One sided board wipes (of which that are plenty to pick from).

infinite spell casting combos that aren't mana intensive to set up (I have one already with Elite Arcanist + Triton Tactics and a "man land").

Instants/sorceries that can be brought back or flashed-back or in some manner get extra trigger off of Noyan Dar (I'm already running a few, but I need to adapt them to my meta still).

Cards that can make the deck function without Noyan Dar on board, of which will likely require just mass control effects and some big fatties. I honestly would prefer other options if I can find them.

Things to note about reading the list is that in the future, sideboard cards are things that are totally okay to run in the deck, but are best saved to be sided in to negate more aggressive/competitive players within the meta.

Aquireboard are cards that I absolutely know need to be in the deck, but have yet to get them/make space for one reason or another.

Maybeboard is obviously for iffy card choices. Duh.
