Start typing a card name and use the auto-complete feature to quickly select the card you're trying to add. Enter a quantity and add that card to your sideboard!
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.
Always wanted to use and abuse the "loner" concept from Avacyn Restored. Also always liked Exalted. Why not combine the two?
The cards that really bring it all together are the artifacts: they're creatures only when you want/need them to be, so you can turn one on at a time and gain benefits of loner cards and exalted, or turn several on for mass offense or defense, depending on need. They're perfect for triggering loner cards like Homicidal Seclusion and Demonic Rising without dealing with the strain of running only one creature at a time, and of course get exalted benefits (Cathedral of War). If you need more creatures, you "turn on" more creatures. If you don't, you leave them as mere artifacts while taking the pain to the opponent with board wipes.Even if some creatures do stand in your way, you can skirt past them with the evasive Dimir and Azorius Keyrunes, tap them with Angelic Benediction, and/or just remove them the hard way with Azorius Charm. Orzhov Keyrune is mainly for defense; no exalted help there, but Homicidal Seclusion can make him a very scary blocker to run into. New addition Haunted Plate Mail makes for a nice conditional 4/4 beater with NO activitation cost once it's on the table, or for 4 mana it can be slapped on one of your other temporary creatures to beef them up tremendously.And don't forget the other conditional creature here: Gideon. Trigger his ability to get some counters on him, THEN wipe the board, then swing in with him next turn for a crushing deathblow.The sideboard is built for additional countering to handle burn and control, an additional way to thin out the opponent's creatures (saccing by way of a one-sided Barter in Blood), ways to slow down really creature-heavy aggro decks (Blind Obedience, Sphere of Safety), and Nefarox and Ætherling as true creatures you can threaten with if necessary.

Love the idea. I have been working on using Homicidal Seclusion to it's full potential...and really love me some Haunted Plate already!
