Sideboard plans with Naturalize
- Goblins vs. MUD, Fluctuator and Turbo Lands. Against MUD, in: both Naturalize; out: two Siege-Gang Commander, which Sphere of Resistance and Winter Orb make hard to cast. Naturalize destroys Winter Orb, Tangle Wire or Ensnaring Bridge at instant speed, and Masticore unless they pay {2} to regenerate it. Against Fluctuator, in: both Naturalize and both Tormod's Crypt; out: Goblin Sharpshooter, two Gempalm Incinerator and a Siege-Gang Commander; Crypt exiles their graveyard in response to Songs of the Damned. Against Turbo Lands, in: two Tranquil Domain and both Naturalize; out: three Gempalm Incinerator and Goblin Sharpshooter. Tranquil Domain destroys Exploration, Seismic Assault and a sideboard Oath of Druids or Sacred Ground at once, and Naturalize destroys Horn of Greed.
- Terrageddon vs. Enchantress, Replenish, Oath of Druids and Aluren. Against Enchantress, in: two Aura of Silence, Ray of Revelation, the third Naturalize and three Pyroclasm for Argothian Enchantress and small animated enchantments; out: the four Swords to Plowshares, which have few targets there, and the three Call of the Herd, since Parallax Wave exiles tokens for good.
- Oath of Druids vs. Enchantment and artifact decks: Enchantress, Replenish, Stasis and MUD. Naturalize is in four of five sideboards on top of the main-deck copies.
- Full English Breakfast vs. Enchantress, Replenish, Deadguy Ale and Aluren.
- Full English Breakfast vs. Oath of Druids, Terrageddon, The Rock, Mono Black and MUD. Naturalize and Uktabi Orangutan come in against all five, for Oath, Sphere, Cursed Totem and Tormod's Crypt.
- Elves vs. Artifacts and enchantments: Enchantress, Replenish, Stasis, Oath of Druids, Aluren, MUD, Fluctuator, Turbo Lands and Stiflenought, and Engineered Plague or Humility. Naturalize is in almost every sideboard, usually three or four copies.
- UG Madness vs. Enchantress, Replenish, Stasis and Oath of Druids. Naturalize is in 95 percent of sideboards and Tranquil Domain in about half: one answers the key piece, the other destroys every non-Aura enchantment at instant speed.
- The Rock vs. Enchantment decks: Enchantress, Replenish, Stasis and Oath of Druids. Naturalize, in nine of ten sideboards, destroys a key piece at instant speed, though not through Sterling Grove's shroud.
- RG Zoo vs. Enchantress, Replenish, Oath of Druids, Stasis, MUD, Aluren, Pit Rack, Turbo Lands, Fluctuator and Stiflenought. Most sideboards add two Naturalize and two Tranquil Domain to the two in the main deck, and Hull Breach is in about half of them since April, though in only one in five since September.
- Reanimator vs. Artifact hate. Crumble and Naturalize destroy Phyrexian Furnace and Tormod's Crypt, but the Crypt can be used in response, so destroy it before you discard a creature.
- Reanimator vs. Enchantress and Solitary Confinement.
- Aluren vs. Enchantress, Replenish, Oath of Druids, Terrageddon and MUD. Three Naturalize for Solitary Confinement, Parallax Wave, Opalescence, Oath of Druids, Aura of Silence and Sphere of Resistance, and Uktabi Orangutan, found by Survival, for Sphere, Winter Orb and Cursed Totem.
- Aluren vs. Mono Black, The Rock, Deadguy Ale, Clerics and Zombies. Naturalize and Monk Realist answer Engineered Plague naming Beast, which almost every Mono Black, Deadguy Ale and Clerics sideboard has, so keep Monk Realist in against them.
