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 discussion for I draw, you discard.

Pretty good. Use Liliana's Caress instead of Megrim. And you need some stuff for the late game. All the discarding you do can only be done during your turn so late game they can still draw their card per turn and play that card. That eliminates your ability to do damage with Liliana's Caress. Consider looking at these 2 discard decks for ideas.

Good call on Liliana's Caress... Late game plan is to just LOAD the board... I should have a ton of cards in hand and should be playing land every turn at least. Since everything pretty much costs 3 mana, I should be able to put out a lot of little creatures/small discard spells/etc and hopefully outweigh them just by pure card advantage.

Think of it kinda like a fat kid sitting on top of a skinny while eating... That person underneath is getting squashed... Slowly, yes, but still squashed and they have little chance of gaining an upper hand since they are so weak.

I checked out your decks... I like a few of the cards, but I can't figure out what to swap in or out. I like the Quests, and the Rack is pretty rad. But what do I take out?

I would take out the 2 Words of Waste for the Quests. They're pretty good but I'm not too keen on skipping a draw and late game it's practically useless since you will absolutely need your draws.

Also, i thought that Whispersilk Cloak would be much more useful than Specter's Shroud. It would protect your few creatures from creature destruction and you're guaranteed to be able to use the abilities of your creatures while dealing damage.

And Painful Quandary is prob a better pick than the 2 Dire Undercurrents. The Undercurrents would be better if they cost less but for a turn 5 drop I would pick Painful Quandary or Liliana Vess over the Undercurrents any day.

Dude, what're you talking about? Absolutely need the late game card draw? The whole point of this deck is drawing extra cards. By late game I should have drawn so many cards I'd be worried about decking myself... The Words are actually in there to PREVENT that from happening.

As for the Whispersilks... I like that idea. I may need to pull some other cards out for them as well.

Painful Quandary is a GREAT late game drop, especially if they only have one card in hand. I'll swap it in for the Dire Undercurrents and pull out a few other cards to swap in the Whispersilks so I can facilitate some card draw.

Thanks for the tips dude!
