Sideboard


First off, I love this deck. It goes off quickly, as early as turn 2. We run roughly 23 cantrips, 5 turn one mana dorks, 4 more at turn 2 with hexproof to help them survive removal, and 3 fatestitchers to accelerate.

The way the deck works is to get a mana dork out (we run 9) and land an ascendancy. When you do, you can tap your creature, cast a cantrip, which then untaps your creatures, pumps them, loots for free, and then your cantrip resolves to draw a card + an effect. This ends with your board state being the same as when you started, but you're deeper in your library. You build up your cantrips, eventually floating mana with "accelerate" spells like Gitaxian Probe and Cerulean Wisps, and Manamorphose which all net you mana, letting you cast other cantrips / spells, build your creatures power / toughness, as well as rip through your entire deck.

There's a lot of games you win with a grapeshot for 20 (or two grapeshots for 8 and 9, after they shock themselves for land a bit) and also you can just go to combat and swing. This makes Fatestitcher amazing, since if you have a single dork out, you tap it for blue, unearth him, use him to untap your dork. each spell then you can use him to either tap down their blockers/lands, or untap your dork/land to get extra mana per spell. Plus they grow and also swing. This is the most common kill for the deck. They are also great fodder to loot away to your ascendancy triggers.

Glittering Wish gives us access to tons of answers. We have the unique ability to use our sideboard for helpful bullets to find, for either silver bullets to hand problems, or extra kill spells incase our grapeshots and Fatestitcher get exiled (Local players play a lot of Surgical Extraction), this is where Flesh/Blood comes in, which lets us kill with Sylvan Caryatid.

We keep one Ascendancy in the sideboard, so between 3 MB, and 2 Glittering Wish's we have essentiall 5 times to draw it.

the reason we have Wheel of Sun and Moon in the board is because we can't grapeshot an opponent with infinite life, so we let ourselves mid combo just get down to a small library, hopefully around 2 or 3 cards left, and then wish for that. Then we use a Thought Scour and a cantrip like serum vision to continuously cycle and mill them out. Sometimes we find ourselves with 10 - 20 flotaing mana, and can't find a grapeshot for some reason (either at the bottom or exiled or milled), so we can grab Debt to the Deathless and just kill them, the plus sides are its loss of life and not damage, and also it doesn't target / can't be redirected. There have been multiple times when playing burn that I've gotten and cast this for as little as swapping 8 life, but it's helped me win. Also this spell is just silly and ridiculous and fun to cast.

The sideboard isn't complete because I'm always switching cards out to try new things. You have literally every multicolor card in modern at your disposal.

This deck is always being updated and tinkered with, and there are tons of ways you can do it differently.
