Sideboard


DISCLAIMER
I sort of deleted most of the description as the deck is in transition stages and is still changing, so the details were almost always wrong (sorry about that). Feel free to ask in the comments about anything if you don't understand a card choice. I'm still not quite sure about the sideboard, or even the mainboard honestly. Both feel like they are missing something.

This deck came about because I really liked The Gitrog Monster and Hokori, Dust Drinker in my testing when coming back to magic after a long hiatus post Summer Bloom ban while trying to revamp my favorite deck:

I like this breakthrough just as much as when I found Glittering Wish for that deck. This version is centered around Hokori, Dust Drinker, The Gitrog Monster, and Karn, the Great Creator as this deck's version of Glittering Wish - which gives lots of possible threats and routes to go with it. Needless to say, I'm really excited about the overall concept and direction of the deck.

There's custom categories on the deck, which you can view by either clicking one in the pie chart to the right, and it will highlight the cards in that category, or by going to the categories dropdown and scrolling down to the bottom and selecting custom. This will group cards by their uses a little better (some cards are in multiple categories). It will just help to give a better understanding of the deck initially, so feel free to give that a peak.

The deck is basically a prison based toolbox deck - Karn, the Great Creator gives full access to my artifacts in the side.

We also function as a prison archetype, so you can catch opponents off-guard by using a creature-based denial strategy one game, then winning with an enchantment/artifact strategy the game after. It makes sideboarding against an unknown deck-type like this very difficult. Some of the sideboard options may look strange, but that is why I chose some of them, with a sort of transformative sideboard in mind.

Don't hesitate to suggest something, leave trying to fit it in to me.

All suggestions are more than welcome.
