The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

This deck revolves around using burn and then using that burn to boost the spitfires.

Please give me some advice as to what to take out or put it.

Deck discussion for Spitfire and Lightning

Hey, neat first deck. You might throw in some fetch lands like Scalding Tarn, not only to thin your deck out so you don't draw unnecessary land, but also to trigger multiple Plated Geopede abilities. A 5/5 first striker is a beast of a third-turn attacker. I'd put four of them in.

Your mana curve's a bit high. You might consider prioritizing high-cost spells and running fewer of them in the deck. Usually a card costing 5+ mana is a questionable add unless it's guaranteed to win you the game. Some of the high-cost cards you are using (like Hoarding Dragon) don't advance your game state very far. You'd be better off with an extra Lightning Bolt or Flame Slash more often than not.

Leylines are the exception: they're better when you run four of them, so you're more likely to draw one off the bat and get a free play. But I'm not sure I'd run four Leyline of Punishment, unless you're building a "punishment" theme deck (and I suspect you're not much of a theme-oriented player, as you didn't like my rage joke deck). Either way, all the best to you!
