Solved it! —March 28, 2014

So when I first made this deck, it could compete with any deck in the format except Jund Monsters. After asking some people on the forums and a lot of playtesting I finally figured out how to beat them. My sideboard was already chock full of answers, I just hadn't considered using them in this match. I bring in everything except the Angel of Serenity and Ajani, Caller of the Pride. The match becomes super attrition oriented, and sources of card advantage and extra value like Garruk, Ephara, and Primeval Bounty have a Dark Confidant style effect on the game, where you have tons of resources and your opponent has very few by the end of the game. I just decided that if they wanted to keep killing my stuff, I would throw stuff at them until they lost, lol. Previously, I had been boarding out Bident of Thassa because of the board stall that was usual in the game, and I still do, but I had been boarding it out for Angel of Serenity, thinking that would have a profound effect on the game, but they usually just rebought their creatures and the game continued on almost the same as before. Thanks for helping me think through that guys!
