Just revised the deck after my 5th tiny leaders tournament, so what is listed in the main board is current.
Current 10 card Sideboard:
Firespout (weenies & tokens)
Arcane Lighthouse (Geist)
Glaring Spotlight (Geist)
Arena of the Ancients (Legend heavy & Voltron, & Geist decks)
Ratchet Bomb (Token removal)
Reality Shift (Indestructible & beefy creature removal)
Chaos Warp (Planeswalkers)
Trinisphere (cheap spells. I honestly haven't sidedboarded this in yet in a tournament)
Elixir of Immortality (Mill & long games)
Pithing Needle (Planeswalkers & annoying cards)


The deck is doing extremely well. In every tournament I have either won or won + tied all of my games.
In this last game this evening it was the first time playing with an Ensnaring bridge in the main deck. Given the creature heavy nature off the format I feel it is a wise decision right now and it made a huge difference in my games.

Rolling Earthquake has been an amazing board clear in many of my games, so much so that I may look for more X spells instead of relying on Anger of the Gods in the main board & Firespout in the sideboard.

Arena of the Ancients is my #1 underdog little known gem of Tiny Leaders. I have seen no one use it besides me but the card has done some serious work. It is incredible.

My most underused sideboard card is Trinisphere. It's powerful but I'm not sure there are many decks that I have seen that I would want to side it in against.

My most underused land in the main board has been Alchemists Refuge. Every time it's out i feel that I would rather have Urborg out, so that my Dark Depths & Tabernacle produce colorless.
When I need to side in Arcane Lighthouse, Refuge is typically the card that I side out to make room.

Every other land has pulled its weight and done an incredible amount of work in every tournament. I think if i had to pick a second to least favorite, it would be Ghost Quarter. It's understandable though as there are cases where i don't want to give my opponent a replacement land or they just have all basics.

Punishing Fire would be my least used non-land card in the deck right now I think. There have been a limited amount of cases where it has come in handy being able to recur it. Also, being able to theoretically burn someone down from 25 to 20 by using it a few times so that the Marit Lage token can kill in one hit seems plausible but it really hasn't ever happened that way. I think it's the next card that I move out of the main deck. Since the addition of Minamo and having enough U to case Kira fairly reliably, I am thinking it is time to experiment with main boarding Tolaria West.

Thanks for the info. Would you suggest sideboarding creature removal? or sideboarding for more specific meta threats? Graveyard / combo / artifact hate.

I'm constantly changing this deck up so it never really stays the same.
