As such, each matchup section will have some general thoughts on what cards aren’t as effective, what you expect the opponent to bring in as far as hate and how the matchup tends to play out.įor those who want specific ins and outs for each matchup, below are two guides to help. Just because you disagree with a suggestion made on this page does not mean you’re wrong! There are different builds of Storm out there and a multitude of cards you can choose to battle with in any given 75. A better way to sideboard is think about the role you want to play and the deck plays in each matchup and what cards do and don’t fit that role.įurther, I’m a firm believer that you can sideboard differently in matchups than others and still be correct, depending on how you see the matchup playing out. I believe one way to improve your piloting of Storm is not to think about sideboarding as cutting A, B, C and bringing in X, Y, Z. Welcome to the section about matchups and sideboarding with Storm in Modern! This page is dedicated to role assessment against all the different archetypes Modern can throw at you as well as discussing some sideboard strategies.īefore we go any further, I’d like to discuss what this page is not – a guide for exactly what cards to cut and exactly what cards to bring in postboard.
