Since most of the bad matchups for Fog.dec will be gone with the banning I tried some variations of it on Cockatrice and this is what I have come up with:
//win
3 Jace's Erasure
//fogs
4 Moment's Peace
4 Fog
4 Lull
//cantrips and draw
4 Prophetic Prism
4 Spreading Seas
4 Vision Skeins
4 Words of Wisdom
4 Accumulated Knowledge
3 Think Twice
//emergency counterspells
4 Counterspell
//lands
4 Simic Guildgate
2 Forest
6 Island
3 Terramorphic Expanse
3 Evolving Wilds
SB: 4 Quiet Disrepair
SB: 4 Nourish
SB: 4 Negate
SB: 3 Hydroblast
I found this deck to be fizzling quite rare thanks to the many cantrips and deck thinning provided by the 6 fetches. Most aggro deck decks are a pretty good matchup and against most control decks we have enough time to find enough lands for a counterspell protected erasure. Problematic are combo decks with aggro components (project X or similar brews) since I don't think you can sideboard fogs out against them and burn since our fogs are useless.
The Sideboard is mostly aimed against burn which is still the worst matchup I think. I side out 4 Moment's Peace, 4 Fog, 3 Lull, 4 Vision Skeins and bring in everything from the sideboard. I thought about ditching the whole matchup to get a broader sideboard but I seem to get many burn players on Cockatrice.
So what are your thoughts on turbofog in the post ban meta? Any advice on my deck?
