For my decks sideboard should I play Anger of the Gods or Slagstorm for my deck FELLOWSHIP OF THE DRAGON . I a little stuck cause Anger of the Gods can exile but Slagstorm can deal damage to my opponent.

Run Anger of the Gods. The reason for this is that it exiles nasty cards like Kitchen Finks and Voice of Resurgence, bypassing their "when dies" triggers.

Anger is better. Exile is highly relevant in modern esp vs g/w variants.

Anger is definitely better tech against various popular creatures, but it depends how easily it'll be to play around your own board wipe. There's not much point playing 2 three health minions before turn 3 only to wipe them, loosing as many creatures as your opponent. But if you choose not to play the creatures on turn 1 or 2 you could be potentially nearly dead from a deck like zoo before you even play the anger.
Another angle is are people going to realistically boarding Kitchen Finks against you? probably not when your main threats are flyers. But yes Voice of Resurgence is nasty.
Having said all that, based on your creatures you can probably get away with Anger of the Gods, so it's likely the better choice.
