with 3 different players that were using Aggro Loam and I lose all games.

What Stax can do about it? What in the sideboard I can put in after the first game? maybe Suppression fields to deal with seismic assalt? Crypts?

Thanks,

I just played in a tourney and lost to Aggro Loam as well. The major problems are that they have a faster clock, more card draw, and land destruction/recursion. Suppression Field slows them down quite a lot but you really want to get a chalice on 2 so they can't cast loam. I don't think terravore is used anymore, to my knowledge they only run 4 threats. Goyf, Crusher, Bob, and Assault. Chalice at 2 stops their biggest threat, Loam as well as Goyf and Bob. Tormod's Crypt is great but they likely will bring in K.Grips... and timing the crypt is hard as they can just cycle in response and get the loam back. I'm running Aura of Silence side as it helps against Ant, Enchantress, and the mirror. It can also be used to kill Seismic Assault or Mox Diamonds. Seal of Cleansing has the issue of CC of 2. I am also trying Karmic Justice.
