The sideboard is tuned to your meta, we don't know what your meta is. If you knew how WRG ran, and your meta, you wouldn't be asking for a general questions (yes the questions and points you made were just general statements, X is good against Y, etc.) Instead you would ask how would you guys deal with X? You're not though, you're just asking for what we would put into the board which is a completely pointless exercise. | ||

Everybody who runs a deck calls it their deck whether they made it or not. He did not imply any ownership over the original idea of the deck at all. If I run Flare at states, am I not allowed to call it my deck just because 71/75 of the list is copied? What pointless semanticism. "Hey bro, can I see your states deck?" "Oh, it's not my deck, I copied it from the internet! The fact that I own the cards and entered it in the tournament is irrelevant!" | ||

I know Orph didn't mean it like that, but maybe that's how judi took it. Regardless... my typical thoughts when I build a deck and the kid I'm facing at a FNM says, "wtf why would you play that!" ![[image loading]](http://knowyourmeme.com/i/000/052/812/original/Deal_with_it_dog_gif.gif?1275684729) | ||

That gif just sums up what I tell my friends when they ask why I build such janky decks. | ||

Also Inkmoth is the best card in standard, prove me wrong  Edit: http://magic.tcgplayer.com/db/deck.asp?deck_id=929833 Just linking the deck. I mean other then the early mentor play, I love the deck, and even mentor later on, when kemba is making cats, or you set of the origin, and then drawing from it is sweet stuff. | ||

Faerie conclave/treetop village were not better than bitterblossom. Blinkmoth was not better than ravager. Colonade not better than JTMS/stoneforge. Manlands are always very good but certainly not best cards in standard. | ||

Another thing that I actually find interesting is that there are no blue cards in the top 25 of gatherer. The highest rated blue card is turn to frog -_- | ||

Think about the synergy with Snapcaster Mage! it kills all the phantasmal images, shuts down titans for a turn, AND you can cast it in response to a Tree of Redemption activation to blow them out! | ||

Instant(kinda) removal in monoblue? And memnites are broken. Its power/cmc is incalculable. | ||

Oh shit, I didn't even think about this. If I ever play RUG in standard I am going to side in 1 mise Turn to Frog against any deck with Trees now, just so I can make that play. Reminds me of my draft last night where life totals were 2 to 3 and opponent had Manabarbs in play, but I tapped 2 and killed him with Incinerate anyway. | ||

I played around and beat Mono Reds, RUGs, and Kessigs all day, then lose to two shitty flare players. Sitting next to Christian Valenti most of the day was kind of cool. Definitely figured out where my sideboard should be now. | ||

also -3ing a garruk to death to draw 6 cards only to slam another garruk was lolz worthy. my sideboard "tech" ended up being a spellskite and a batterskull. | ||
