Did you ever board in Infernal Contract over IU against decks with red blasts?

What were you playing against?

Divert does more justice against the BUG-style decks.

Those seem like OK cuts, but like you said your list is pretty much all over the place. If it works, it works I guess.

If you're running Cabal Ritual, you probably want to try and make room for...

I play seven chant with Burning Wish, no main deck tendrils or iggy.

You board it in against tempo decks.

Well, I still play this deck.

As for the Maverick problem, I've devoted a slot to the match up in my board -- Virtue's Ruin.

Having to double bounce or Deathmark things with double Mother of...

I'm actually okay with going turn 1 Ad Nauseam against non-blue decks. I'm playing Nemavera's list from GP Amsterdam with a tweaked sideboard.

Compared to TES and ANT, the Ad Nauseams are fairly...

I prefer IU over Meditate because it's cheaper...

The Wild Nacatl were in place of Grand Abolisher and something random because I didn't have any extra cards.

It was the Monday after the SCG St. Louis Open, so I decided to play something fun (I...

Short post. Played this to a 3-1 finish last night at my LGS:

17 Land
4 Flooded Strand
2 Polluted Delta
2 Scalding Tarn
2 Underground Sea
2 Volcanic Island
2 Tundra
1 Badlands

Ended up 2-2 tonight.

2-1 vs Painter Stone
1-2 vs Esper Blade
2-1 vs Dredge
0-2 vs Dragon Stompy

Labman was great when I had him. He's easier to play through hate, but isn't that awesome.
...

He's fun to play though :3

I'll be playing a Doomsday list with Lab Man for a tournament this Monday.

Why?

Because I fucking can.

Report to come later.

I don't know about chant effects, but lately I've been playing straight UB for Force of Will, Gitaxion Probe and Pact of Negation.

Sorry for the late update folks. School started and such. I didn't do so hot at the tournament--ended up 2-3.

I used Doomsday and Ad Nauseam about 50/50. The list needs more lands. I think I'll be...

Angel's Grace also has the "LoLwut, I just drew my library?" factor to it...

...in addition to being good against Hive Mind.

EDIT: Hit a storm count of 40+ by going Ad Nauseam -> Doomsday ->...

Anyone know a good generic sideboard? I'm still having issues coming up with one.

Basically all I have is?

4 Xantid Swarm
11 cards

Currently 1 Ad Nauseam and 2 Doomsday has kept me happy :smile:

I'm not sure about cutting Cabal Rituals though, but if I needed to cut something it'd be the third ritual or the Chain of Vapor.
...

At this point, I'm not too worried about protection for non-blue decks. In my meta Gaddock Teeg is fairly common, so that's why I have the bounce.

My favorite part about running 7 chant effects is...

The only thing I question is the Tropical Island in the main. Also I'm starting to think that the Xantids in the board should be Carpet of Flowers as a nod to Merfolk and other tempo decks.
...

Currently the best answer is, "Which ever best fits the situation." It's completely dependent on life totals, hate bears etc.

To give a general answer, I'd say in testing against Force of Will...

Because I was bored...

15 Land
4 Polluted Delta
4 Misty Rainforest
3 Underground Sea
2 Tundra
1 Tropical Island
1 Island

I'm not really sure why I ran 2 petals in the first place. I realized it's awkwardness last night while testing.. the only reason I'd ever need it is piles like:

Meditate
Lotus Petal
Dark Ritual...

Here's my list. Looking for feedback and comments.. more on the sideboard than anything else. I also have this posted on storm boards. Thanks in advance.

I don't have access to Polluted Deltas at...
