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.
A curse can be a horrible thing.

hmm curse base deck... i like :) if that is the case i would add curse of stalked prey/curse of pierce heart into the deck.. reason: bitterhear witch gets it out for free, 2) birds can act as a mountain if need be. and question? why is the island in there? you state named cards are in place of the new DA cards. if you need a island then use your birds. free's up 1 spot. I really like the idea. use more of the curse cards then :) thanks for the comment. is there any advice you would give to help my stompy deck?

Birds are creatures, Birds get killed, Rampant Growth and Viridian Emissary (also a creature that gets killed) both search for that island. That new Dawntreader Elk would be great in here. It gets extra land and it's a 2/2 which isn't always easy to deal with (especially in today's standard with Gut Shot being used more than Shock). The Elk is more of a blocker though, just to let you know.
point goes to daqbaker :P
I'm not sure stalked pray would do much, it's only the birds that might have use for it.. Pierced heart I was thinking of too, but Curse of thirst does the same thing but ramps the damage up with more curses (maybe I can fit both types in...) It would also add another color to the deck, for just 1 card.. The Island is there to fetch so I can hard cast Curse of Echoes if I happen to get it on hand (yes birds can too, but they can also get killed)
Did some changes. Removed the Flourishing rites and replaced them with 3 pierced heart and 1 more death's hold. Also added 2 sun spheres but removed 2 lands (now I'm on 22 lands instead of 24) Not sure if that will be enough lands, but considering all the fetch it should work. will have to proxy the deck and play test it some to find out.
I see what you mean. are you in a budget style deck? if not, lets get this more rares and more cards that may be epic for it :) fist and foremost, i would add sad robot *solem sim*. great fetch and draw creature he is like the snapcaster of fetch :). next, i would add hinterland harbor instead of the island and some forests. reason: so you can cast curse of echoes faster and you would have more probability for it. i would also add some sort of knocker. add thrun or maybe vorapede. if your going to have that red mana in it, then i would add copper gorge or the R/B dual from 2012. another thing i found useful when i played FNM earlier today was... *drum roll* heartless summoning.. used my buddies R?B heartless Edward. found it really fun and it went 4-1.... it was cause of HS that i won most of my games. its an unappreciative card. also memorcide or surge extract. for exile. more creature hate bro. naturalize, doomblade, GFTT, feels good to be black !! :P some things to look into :)
All good suggestions as always m8, but what to take out? I'd love me some solems and Heartless. Heartless wouldn't be good for my birds tho, but I guess it wouldn't matter if I replaced them with solemns.. And maybe replace my two spheres with 2 heartless? What do you think?
Added heartless and Solemn as well as Rune-Scared Demon. Also put 3 Sever the bloodline in for more removal. Can't say if it's a better setup or not...
sever's might not be the best removal bro.. how that card is judged is if there are *lets say* two prime evil titans. you play sever. that means 2 prim tits are exile... so multiple cards that are on the field are taken out. i would go memorcide, surg extract..... also i would add doom blade... dismember... just the common removals...
Isn't that a good thing? That's why I chose Sever, because it exiles and it can take more then 1 with it. In conjunction with black sun I have good sweeping ability. Black is a strong color in Standard and quite comon so Doomblade seems risky (I prefer go for the throat). I love memoricide and Surgical, and ofc Dismember, but what to take out?
