Hello once again all, my challenge to you today should prove fun. Many decks need good sideboards to run against certain decks, cards better tailored for fighting certain decks (color protection, anti-control, etc.). Today's challenge: make cards based on countering certain decks, whether it be control, aggro, a specific color, or whatever decks bother you in a game. Good luck to all!

Honorable mentions:
Plaguebourne Sliver by @Corwinnn
Cool card, but it's legendary, mythic, and the art is already a card (Sliver Hivelord). Doesn't seem very sliver-like, considering the other slivers out there. This feels more like another random uncommon sliver, since their 3 mythic rare legends are all 5-color and very good.
Goblin Faeriecatcher by @VSSS
The idea in itself is fine, so it's mostly for flavor reasons that this got kicked off the podium. There's no faeries on Tarkir, in either of the timelines. Also, Atarkan goblins are (essentially) expendable servants (take Dragonlord's Servant for example), so there wouldn't be time for this random goblin to go find, and subsequently study (which is used loosely) a new species with no value as food.
Drown in Grief by @Beeswax
This seems more like a card I would keep in my main deck and then side out if necessary, because a lot of archetypes use only one or two creature types, and this gets even better if you run it in something like a R/W or B/W deck so you can kill a potential attacker then tap all their other ones.
3rd: Purification Angel by @Benw
The tricoloring seems a little unnecessary. This seems like it would be fine as just U/W or U/R, but not U/R/W altogether. Aside from that, this is a solid sideboard card.
2nd: Glimmerscale Serpent by @seaspray4TF3
'Control vs. Control is too slow, so lets get this over with' is the feeling I get from this card. Also fits nicely in Magic Origins; it feels like one of those older cards that got reprinted because it's a core set.
1st: Shattering Impact by @Damnation
Nice card to sideboard for red decks, since not a lot of archetypes use artifacts. This even goes nicely with other M15 cards, and could possibly have been a card itself.
