Prepping for Legacy Classic..

Legacy Deck Help forum

Next month an SCG Classic is coming to my city, and it is my intention to get the 2-day "Infinite Challenge" pass, and enter several Legacy events (and maybe a Modern one)..

This is the deck that I'm bringing:

While this is not this deck's "maiden voyage", Eldrazi Stompy is a relatively new competitive archetype, and I am still relatively "green" to the overwhelming Arms Race that is the competitive Legacy meta game.. So be ruthless in your critique, particularly the sideboard.. Dredge/Reanimator match-ups have taught me the value of a strong sideboard. The problem is that I haven't put in the shear amount of live testing required to confidently nail-down a definitive sideboard..


In my experience thus far, Cavern of Souls is absolutely hilarious in a format that revolves around Force of Will, and that my "lock pieces" give me a favorable match-up against some of the more traditional Tier-1 strategies (ex: I dump all over Miracles). I seem to have close-to-unfavorable match-ups against Delver & StoneBlade variants. And more importantly, I'm vulnerable to getting blown-out by the likes of OmniTell, and have a really shitty match-up against Shardless Sultai/BUG..

So if I had to focus on one match-up in particular, it would be the Sultai match-up.. My Sultai match-up sucks, I hate it, I don't enjoy it--ever, and yet I keep seeing it on the other side of the table.. How can I realistically improve my Sultai match-up?! (Goyfs are annoyingly hard to deal with without removal)..
