Topic: [Modern] Merfolk (Sideboard Help!)
Hello all! I've been contemplating getting into Modern for a while now (Standard just seems to becoming worse and worse of an investment) and I've decided to ever so slowly began a Merfolk build.

I certainly won't call the mainboard too original in any way, at all. It seems pretty much all Merfolk decks only differ by a few cards.
Mostly what I'm worried about is the sideboard. I have not played Modern before and therefor I'm not quite sure what I should have and for what reason. I think I've done a pretty decent job for general matchups but I'm note quite sure.
I would certainly appreciate any and all feedback. Thanks!
