Enchantress: Sideboard Guide

Same cards on the play and the draw; what changes is how you play. On the draw they race with the combo, so be reactive; on the play, push for the win. Grove goes out because Vision Charm mills the card you put on top and Stifle counters the activation. Opalescence is what they must counter.

the primer has no exact list; the plan above is its general "aggro" plan with the two cards the Goblins section names (Replenish, Karmic Justice).

Favorable. Grass, Confinement and Wave carry the game.

Closer. Play/draw matters a lot; watch your life total before chaining cheap spells into Pillar.

Whoever lands Wave + Opalescence first, and gets Serra's Sanctum online, usually wins. Abeyance + Wave is the out when you fall behind.

Favored. Their board brings Engineered Plague and Dystopia; land Aura of Silence early.

Hardest matchup, about 60–40 for them. Argothian Enchantress is the MVP: they can't remove her. Keep two Swords for Meddling Mage.

Hard. Wild Growth goes out against land destruction; stay proactive, a long game favors them.

Reactive on the draw (Swords the Priest of Titania early), proactive on the play. Survival finds Nantuko Vigilante for your enchantments.

Very favored. A Xantid Swarm that attacks usually wins the game.

Slightly favored. They pressure early; stabilize first.

Slightly favorable. Good pilots just counter every Opalescence; they bring Annul and Engineered Plague.

Unfavorable. Hermit builds don't play Nantuko Vigilante, so one Opalescence goes out. Abeyance does little here.

Unfavorable. Play reactively; an early Aura of Silence buys one or two turns.

Slightly favorable. Land an early Argothian Enchantress and don't be afraid to break Standstill. Tsabo's Web is huge against their manlands.

Favorable. Don't overcommit into Pernicious Deed; hold back once you have 2–3 anchors.
