Title: [Standard] See those Dragons side board help and origins theory crafting
Post by: zeusjuice on July 07, 2015, 12:09:58 am
See those Dragons (http://deckstats.net/decks/36668/276108-see-those-dragons)

Hey all this is my current FNM deck. It does pretty well but I am trying to get it fine tuned. I have gone (http://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Gone) as high as 3rd place with it last week to get my path to exile (http://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Path+to+Exile) promo!!  I seem to have a really tough time against anything rabble master, which I assume is only going to get worse what origins comes out.  I am mainly looking for sideboard help(or main deck changes) against quicker decks like rdw, atarka sligh, and sometimes mardu dragons, basically anything with rabble master in it.  The biggest issue I noticed last weekend was searing blood (http://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Searing+Blood) absolutely wrecks my deck. it hits my dorks, my xenagos tokens and my whisper wood manifests.  The sideboard I included is just a work in progress and was not what I had last week.  Does anyone have any ideas on how I can stabilize against aggro until I can get those big dragons out, or is there a way to ramp without getting my dorks nuked?  Also has anyone seen any of the origins cards that I might want to look at plugging into this deck?  I would really like to keep running xenagos/xenagod/atarka until theros rotates.  Thanks in advance I am also going to cross post this on r/magicdeckbuilding.

Thanks Everyone!

I really like what something like Flameshadow Conjuring (http://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Flameshadow+Conjuring) could add to your dragons. Gives you a little more frontline beatdown that they'll need to deal with. I also like Vinesnare to slow the damage coming at you. Your deck is powerful, but your creatures are so huge most fast decks are going to have you dead (http://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Dead) before you can get anything down. Getting a playset of Den Protector (http://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Den+Protector) and bringing dead (http://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Dead) dorks back is always and option.. Last thought I've been playing around with myself is the value of the landfall effect from Zendikar's Roil (http://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=Zendikar%27s+Roil).. Free 2/2 chump blocker everytime I drop a land? Not bad if I want to have a good board of defenders setup so I can make sure my dragons punch through their ranks.
