Hey guys, i started playing Grixis Therapy and was wanting some help with the deck, Was there anything major i missed in the deck? Also i need help with the side board. I tried to make it so most of the board could come in against shops and dredge. Finally, what is the decks worst matchups? shops is a hard one and i haven't tested against dredge. oath was a pretty good matchup, as was the mentor control decks. Thanks in advance for the help. If anything needs explained let me know and i will explain why/ why not a card is there.
in a way it is similar to grixis delver, but in place of delver i have cabal therapy. its based off of olle rade's list from the vsl play in tournament. what should i take out for the 4th bolt and null rods?
I might consider at least a singleton Snapcaster, it allows you to re-use things like Time Walk and surprise counters. Of course this gets you additional Therapy buyback target(s) too.
I would love to add a snap caster or 2 i just don't know what to cut. As with the 4th bolt, i don't want to cut a misstep, they help me to protect my young pyro from other bolts and swords to plowshares.

They're practically useless against Shops. I think it's honestly hard to argue for more than a 2-of unless you're playing most often against bolts, storm, and plows.
I'm guessing that the answer here is probably to pick what gives you the least bang for its buck, and replace that.

True-Name Nemesis is pretty good against Shops, as are a 4th Lightning Bolt and sideboard of Null Rod (which you can do with relative impunity).
