Standard* Control Four Color

Sideboard


Four Color control. Focuses on early ramp to Mutilate to reset the board. With more mana comes more removal/counterspells.

Win conditions are a beatdown with Snappy, Nighthawk, beasts, Thrag, and Obzedat, or a blowout with an overloaded Cyclonic rift, or a mill strat if it comes to that against control.

I have answers for aggro with Nighthawks and Augurs, supplemented by Blind Obedience, Golgari, and possibly Dispel against Boros Charm or Spear.

Against midrange, I can usually out ramp and out control them. Sideboard in Sever, Blind, Appetite, and Golgari.

Versus control, I side in Blind Obedience (for Obzedat and any blockers), Spiral, Mind Grind, Dispel (for Sphinx) and Rest in Peace.

The sideboard makes sense to me, but I don't know how effective it is. I added in stuff against control and aggro, since the vanilla deck is mostly a midrange/ramp counter.

Liliana and Garruk work well to add card draw, mana fixing, and pump. If they are both out, I can pump with Liliana and then draw with Garruk. Otherwise, I will only pump Nighthawks with Liliana or when the board is cleared except for my creatures.

Overall, the mana works out fine and I usually have answers for most match ups. What you do you think?
