This is a friend's deck. We're trying to make a Type 2 rogue deck that will stand up to Hawkward, Valakut and Caw Go decks for an upcoming tournament. Thinking outside the box a bit, this is what we came up with.
The sideboard:
Manic Vandals vs Caw or Hawkward. Get rid of swords, batterskull or Steel overseers.
Pyroclasm, Slagstorm and Black Sun's Zenith vs any aggro.
Memoricide vs Valakut or U/B control. Take out the titans/sphinxes and it just epic fails.
VS Caw blade:
-2 Bonehoard, +2 Dismember. Bonehoard is bad in this matchup.. not enough creatures. Dismember kills Spellskite and Hero Of Bladehold.
-2 Slagstorm, -1 Pyroclasm, +3 Manic Vandal to destroy Swords or spellskites. You already have enough ways to deal with birds. These don't kill Spellskites or Hero of Bladehold.
VS Valakut:
-1 pyroclasm, -1 Slagstorm. +2 Memoricide. Gets rid of valakuts or Primeval titans.
-3 Volt Charge, -1 Slagstorm, +4 Inquisition of Kozilek. Gets rid of ramp spells/ Nature's Claims. Bolt sux in this matcup, so does Slagstorm.
-2 Destructive Force, +2 Inferno Titan. D force can't kill titans. Valakut runs 6 titans and ramps lands too quickly to be useful.
VS Splinter Twin:
-2 Slagstorm +2 Memoricide. Get rid of Exarchs or twins.
-3 Lightning bolt, -1Bonehoard, +4 Inquisition of Kozilek Gets rid of Exarch or spellskite. See hand.
-1 pyroclasm, -1 Arc Trail, +2 Dismember. Good vs both spellskite and exarch.
VS Tempered Steel:
-2 Destructive Force, +2 Memoricide. D force is too slow. Memoricide gets rid of Tempered Steel.
-3 Volt Charge, -1Karn. +4 Inquisition. Without D Force, Volt Charge isn't needed as much. Gets rid of key cards. Karn is just too slow in this matchup.
VS Any Birthing Pod Deck: Against any pod deck, Use tumble magnet to tap the pod during their upkeep. Can't use it!
-3 Arc Trail, +3 Manic Vandal. To destroy Birthing Pods or other annoying artifacts they will surely have.
U/B Control: This is a harder matchup for this deck because of all the extraction. You will have to outpace them with ramp and win by Wurmcoil engines and Tumble Magnets. You can easily win by D Force and Karn.
-1 Doom Blade, -1 Pyroclasm, -2 Slagstorm. +4 Inquisition of Kozilek. Fight fire with fire.
-2 Arc Trail, +2 Memoricide.
Generic Aggro deck:
-2 Destructive Force, +1 Black Sun's Zenith, +1 Pyroclasm. You won't need D Force to win these matchups and it's a bit too slow.
-1 Karn. Take it down to 60 cards for speed.
