Sideboard plans with Brain Freeze
- Stiflenought vs. Enchantress. In: three Annul and both Brain Freeze. Brain Freeze is for the games without a Solitary Confinement and only wins if it empties their library, since every enchantment it mills comes back with their Replenish, and their sideboard Gaea's Blessing shuffles the graveyard back.
- Stiflenought vs. Stasis. In: three Annul and both Brain Freeze. Annul counters Stasis itself and Black Vise, and Brain Freeze plus Vision Charm's mill pressure their library, which Gaea's Blessing protects in about half their lists.
- Stasis vs. Landstill and Tron. Against Landstill: three Annul, Brain Freeze and a Gaea's Blessing in; two Fire // Ice, two Portent and Root Maze out. Against Tron: two Annul, Brain Freeze, Gaea's Blessing and the second Root Maze in; two Daze, two Portent and a Fire // Ice out.
