Looking for sideboard/strategy advice playing with Burn against Blue Moon

Deck Help forum

Posted on May 27, 2015, 10:49 a.m. by scholar

I may be playing it again this week and I remember last time I got swept by it. Just too much countermagic until they stabilize and wreck -- that's not even including their sideboard cards. Please help!

Here is my deck if you want to see what I'm currently working with: Modern Burn (past 2 months: 4th place worst place)

Destructive Revelry is your best friend; it takes out most of their sideboard tech.

Typically I'll side in Negates, Dispel, Sun Droplets, and a Batterskull against burn. Out with Shackles, probably Clique, and a few Remands. Also watch for Spellskite.

I think focusing on the life total is your best bet. The finishers (I use Stormbreath) will take two burn spells at least, and they'll probably have counter magic to keep it alive.
