Sideboard - 4 cards, 4 distinct
Notes
Sculpt a perfect reactive hand (counterspells, spot removal, wipes) while keeping the yard lean to dodge graveyard hate.
Cantrips smooth draws; looters filter and secretly load key creatures (never mass-mill!).
Play control first, encore second — Araumi is a scalpel, not an engine.
Encore small ETB creatures (Plaguecrafter, Chupacabra) for value or control.
Don’t hesitate to cast small utility creatures early for value or to deter attacks.
Keep finishers (Gary, Massacre Wurm, Archon) hidden until endgame — discard right before encoring.
Win through timing, precision, and deception — not yard size.
