As a mostly casual player, I looove Mastermind's Acquisition (and wishes in general). I don't go crazy - even in my kitchen table decks, I believe any deck that uses wishes in casual should use a wishboard (15 card sideboard) rather than a player's whole darn collection, just to keep things fair - and with MTGA, that's now limited to 7 cards in Bo1, which is still fair. But my goodness, I do love it. Especially since they released The World Tree, allowing for many of my decks to run a World Tree + Golos package, and 1-4 copies of Mastermind's (typically 1 for a nonblack deck, and 2-4 for a Bx deck). At that point, it can simply be an expensive tutor if I need it to be that - or it can start assembling a OTK that I have in the sideboard (which I call my winboard for this type of deck :-P ). These days I'm playing more midrange/control types of deck, leaning more towards the latter but midrange in the sense that it's mostly tapout control. It's pretty awesome to be controlling, controlling, controlling... then all of a sudden, out of seemingly nowhere the opponent gets nuked. I haven't yet worked out a winboard for Std22 - but in historic I'm currently using Omniscience (to power the rest of the combo), Scholar of the Ages (to recur the Mastermind's and other spells), Sublime Epiphany (to retrigger the Scholar and add some protection), Thought Distortion (protection/disruption; usually try to get it out if my opponent is consistently leaving mana up and may interfere), Approach of the Second Sun (actual wincon, can draw to the second one straight away with Sublime... or, fun fact, can use Sublime to counter the Approach + create a new Scholar to get it straight back out), Aether Helix (to deal with indestructible permanents that may stop me from winning, namely a Faceless Haven with an indestructible counter on it) and Kaya, Bane of the Dead (to let Helix get throught to hexproof permanents). Aether Helix could be replaced with Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger who can exile indestructible permanents instead, but I like Helix as it offers some backup if Scholar dies before you go off.

Wishes used to be much better before the exile zone existed, because some of them (Burning, Cunning, Glittering) could grab themselves. This was the main win condition of a Mirari + Mirari's Wake deck that would be able to generate a ton of mana and keep casting and recasting and then flashing back an Elephant Ambush by copying Cunning Wish with Mirari and using it to get a wish in exile that had been cast previously with the copy getting the exiled Elephant Ambush. It was a fairly efficient way of including a win condition in the deck, one that could just keep spitting out more Elephants given more turns or mana. The rest of the deck was just stall, counters, and Wraths, and it didn't have win conditions clogging its hand while building out its mana; early game Cunning Wishes could be used to find hate cards in the sideboard, even if it was just the 4th Moment's Peace to buy two more turns. There may have been a deck that did this with Burning Wish as well, but I have less specfic memories. It also may have been theoretically possibly with Glittering Wish.

@aidennoir597
4 жыл бұрын
A side board is something they have in most 60 card constructed formats. It's a list of 15 cards that you can use to swap out your main deck cards in between games of a match. This allows you to better tune your deck against your opponent's strategy. Most casual and/or singleton formats do not have sideboards, and they are not used in best of one matches on Arena because there is only one game against each opponent.
@nickbalmes6640
4 жыл бұрын
Think of the side board as an extension of your deck that contains cards that help you in specific and niche match ups. Cards that have narrow but powerful effects usually end up here so having the option to "wish" for a card out of your side board to help during Game 1 against a specific opponent is an incredible advantage. As Nizzahon mentioned in the video, the term "wish board" was coined because of the side board being filled by virtually singleton copies of cards more popularly known as "silver bullets". Hope this helps too :)
