Sideboard


Very explosive deck that can kill your opponent as early as turn 2. The strength of the deck is that you don't have to get a high storm Count to deal large amounts of damage, and can freely go off and cycle without worry and just win the turn after instead.

Main strategy uses Empty the Warrens with Impact Tremors to deal 20+damage in 1 turn, with Zombie Infestation and Mass Hysteria providing an alternate way of winning and/or stalling with zombies and giving the Arbor Elf-type cards haste to keep going off.

The only budgeted choices of cards are in the sideboard, as I would otherwise play Rest in Peace, Stony Silence, Blood Moon and others

Cards I've tested and found not great/insufficient: Greater Auramancy (This card does almost nothing in this deck), Nyx-Fleece Ram (wasn't actually good in practice, almost strictly worse than Herald), Grim Guardian (playable but too slow to work properly), Spreading Seas (I'm still not sure whether to play this or Ground Seal, however the mana requirement is sometimes awkward without Breeding Pool.), Purphoros, God of the Forge (a bit slow, but somewhat okay) Forgeborn Oreads (also a bit too slow). Freed from the Real (unnecessarily risky highroll card), Ghostly Prison/Sphere of Safety (Seemed okay, but it's not the direction that I want to take the deck, although it's likely something that should be in the sideboard (I just don't like playing prison tbh))
