Deck Description

Trespasser's Curse + Forbidden Orchard -> primary win condition
Rakdos Charm + Forbidden Orchard -> secondary win condition
Hissing Miasma + Darkness -> third win condition
Brutality/Lightning Bolt -> early interaction but can go face when needed
Expedition Map -> castle, labyrinth, or orchard
Treasure Map -> plays well with 4 darkness and 4 lightning bolt
Bloodstained mire -> generally one, maybeee two red sources is enough for this deck so you should be fetching swamps after 2 red sources

How to Play

Post Sideboard:
Sub out 2 miasma, 4 darkness, 3 charm, 2 maps, + 3 cards
Sub in devotion package (Tainted Remedy only comes in based on matchup)

Against creature based decks you will be favorited 7/10 times in game 1. Wait to sub in devotion package until you lose; will throw off opponent because changes game plan and performs better on the play. Non-creature based decks are obviously a much more difficult matchup. Sub out for sideboard Immediately after game 1; don’t be stubborn because, even if you won, trust me you got lucky. Sideboard will enable you to have threats to pressure their planeswalkers and also changes your win condition slightly. This means that they have likely incorrectly sideboarded against you after the first game. The devotion sideboard is constructed specifically vs Teferi decks. Your creatures all have enter the battlefield abilities so when they get bounced you receive additional value. (Still going to have to get a little lucky with your draws to have a real chance)
