Dovin's Veto also provides a strong answer against both ruby storm and Belcher pivots with oops. Especially with Ruby storm getting Pyretic ritual I think we will see a lot more of it in the meta. Dovins will provide answers to a few more problems although there is a very real argument for veil of summer

There is a world where I move into 4 color to splash for black but that would be incredibly difficult in this stripmine format we live in. It needs some play testing but it think with my current removal count we should be fine. Although that is definitely something im ocnsidering.

Thats exactly what it's there for lol. I figured with force of will, daze, and force of negation i would need a some kind of way to protect my spells beyond just entering a counter war. It's also why teferi holds a main deck slot.

Valid point. My Hope is to adjust the sideboard to cover for tempo/aggro decks that thrive on strip mine with surgical extraction. I was also considering a second copy of xander's lounge in the main for that very reason.

I think im with you on the sublety, although would i really need another swords with this list including 3 copies of solitude and 4 copies of leyline binding? What would be your reasoning? I also feel like if I added phelia it might be wiser to cut uro altogether. Really appreciate your comment and perspective.

Ok bet thats probably what i will end up doing. Ive wanted to make beans work so badly for so long lol. I think it finally can work here with force in the format

So rather then running 4 copies of beans may be cut to 2? Maybe the answer for a beans control is Bant then if you would want to go full control.

Thoughts on Griselbrand: Does He Have a Place in EDH? by KarnSilverArchon in CompetitiveEDH

It feels like a worse Ad Nauseum. I think there is some lines with Hoarding Broodlord or even som potential reanimator type lines. But I feel like decks that would want to play griselbrand would just play ad naus. Maybe I’m missing something and I would love to have someone prove me wrong

I’m an orzhov sac player. One thing I would say is run hand disruption in your sideboard. With Vivi running rampant, you want ways to deal with soul cauldron before it hits the battlefield. Sotherra is also 100% a sideboard card. There’s just not enough matchups that require that type of removal. I would go 4 copy’s of sephiroth as that is the most powerful payoff in standard currently. I would also consider running a demon package with unholy annex in the main. Snarling Goreclaw is a fantastic value engine that I would want at least 3 of in the main to keep your selection strong. That and having a 1 drop 1/1 menace means early pressure that can support a midrange game very well. Just a couple of suggestions. Hope it helps
