This matchup hinges entirely on graveyard density, so Tormod's Crypt is a premium tool that can blank Tolarian Terror and Cryptic Serpent, forcing them back to full price and stranding cards in hand. Blue Elemental Blast counters or destroys nothing here since the opponent is mono-blue, so it stays in the board, but note it is only relevant if they somehow present red permanents; instead lean on Annul to strip Force Spike-style disruption is irrelevant since it only hits artifacts and enchantments, so bring it in solely if they have Steel Sabotage or similar targets from their sideboard, otherwise favor Counterspell and Spell Pierce mirrors. Fiery Cannonade and Skred are weak against a deck whose threats are 5/5 and 6/5 bodies, so trim toward more proactive disruption and card selection. Preordain is cut in favor of graveyard disruption since finding lands matters less than denying their engine. Keep the full Counterspell and Lightning Bolt/Skred core otherwise, since Delver of Secrets and early creatures still need answers.
