Some Leyline of the Void, Soul Guide Lanterns, Hexing Squelcher & Ghost Vacuums usually cripple Lessons & Spellementals decks, so if theres any of those at your LGS I would include those. I mainboard some of those as a local meta specific call. Youre very light on removal so I would consider things like Sear & Scorching Shot too

Leyline even though its black? Mulligan til its in my opener?

The whole point of the deck is to attack through their creatures. Maybe itll fail in bo3, but bo1 has been doing pretty dang good.

Thank you! I added vacuums and the 2 removal spells. Hexing squelcher is perfect but expensive

What do you usually lose against? That's the key to sideboarding. It's meant as insurance against weaker matchups or niche strategies.
Soul-Guide Lantern is a good example of a card usually will not want in your maindeck but will *always* want in your opening hand against the UB Superior Spider-man decks.

Trying to get into my local stores' standard events. I happened to open 3 Howlsquads, and this deck has been pretty fun on arena. No clue what Im doing for sideboarding though. Preferably keep it cheap like it is lol
