| why do you need more pull from eternities? im not saying its wrong i just want you to ask why you need multiples. does your metagame have lots of suspend? if so maybe you should put more teferis in your sideboard or main to fight these decks rather then the pull from eternity. if you ask what each card in your deck is designed to do i think that you will understand just how to tweak your deck. |

The sideboard does two distinct things, either makes the deck anti-control or anti-aggro, post board. Against aggro bring the extra card draw and the creature kill and take out the slower control cards. Against control board out Damnations and less efficient control cards and bring in the anti-control package. In the case of Pull. Pull does what Teferi can't. Teferi can't stop chroniclers from drawing cards, and can't stop Detritivores from bombing lands, and in control mirrors thats what matters. Stopping a Chronicler from coming into play only matters about 10% of the time and stopping a Detritivore from coming into play never matters. Its the card advantage they get from the removing suspend counters that matters. You need multiples because they will have multiple suspend cards you will need to pull.
I know what all the cards are meant to do, i was more wondering on what you guys thought of choices like the Triskelavus/Academy Ruins plan and the sideboard splash plan. |

the splash is fine and the trisk recursion is really good in the control mirror and gives them another problem. there only possible out in that situation is extripate,vesuva or there own academy ruins. |
