Sideboard


Urza's Day Spa

Pampering the Titan.

Emrakul

List is based off LSV's UW Tron!


Special Lady Day

While Emrakul is the embodiment of desolation, that doesn't mean Eldrazi have to always float around every day draining planes of their essence. Even an Eldrazi Titan can have their special day. However, you can't have a decent spa without a foundation.

Updates Add

After several weeks of tweaking Gifts Tron, I made significant enough changes that have been a lot of fun. The sideboard changed a bit, added in Eldrazi, and more single targets for the Gifts package. Reset the discussion with this update.

-1 Talisman of Progress: After much playtesting, I started preferring the signets for the dual colors. Very helpful, especially with Supreme Verdict. A fifth felt redundant.

-1 All is Dust: I've never wanted to cast this and found myself always siding it out. Hitting my Leylines is reason enough to never cast it, or Iona and Elesh Norn.

-1 Wrath of God and -1 Day of Judgment, +1 Supreme Verdict: Supreme has been superior so far, otherwise Geist player simply counters the wrath away.

-1 Condescend: I've never wanted to Gifts it or really cast it, as I'd rather fire off a Gifts, Thirst, Remand, or crack a Map.

-2 Seachrome Coast: These haven't been working out, and my mana base got too greedy. Paths and Ghost Quarters punished me greatly. Replaced with two Plains.

+1 Repeal: A single one has been great, especially at getting rid of a lot of crazy interactions, such as Isochron Scepter + Silence locks. That one turn can buy me time and hope to land a threat.

+1 Emrakul, the Aeons Torn and +1 Kozilek, Butcher of Truth: I liked playing Kozilek over Ulamog because he's one cheaper and nets four cards. The indestructible part of Ulamog never mattered as he'd eat a Path all the same. Emrakul is another wincon if Rites is stopped, Mindslaver is hit with Slaughter Games or similar effects, or I just can't get a Gifts to stick.

As for the sideboard, I've adjusted the list to my local meta.

-1 Celestial Purge, -1 Condemn, -1 Pact of Negation, -1 Relic of Progenitus, -1 Path to Exile: Gifting into a Purge or Condemn means only one is required. Removed the Pact. Relic was a liability, Tormod's has been a great replacement.

+3 Defense Grid: They do so much work! Tossed with a Thirst, protect Colonnades from being burned down or eating a Path, help Rites and Mindslaver go off uninterrupted. Drop them when necessary, I'd usually have the mana to pay the extra 3 anyway.

June 4th

-1 SB Rule of Law, +1 Trinisphere: It does exactly what I want out of Rule of Law, but has recursion with Academy and Buried Ruins, pitches with Thirst, and slows down a lot of decks if it sticks early enough.
