Have a PTQ tomorrow... and changed my deck at the last minute from LOAM to Jund... and wanted some help with sideboarding please...

I haven't played Jund before (as a deck) but Loam has a lot of the same cards, and do kinda the same thing with different methods..

My main question is.. I have never played with Bloodbraid Elf , are there any tricks to it as far as when the best time to play it, or when you shouldn't play it or... anything at all? I don't want to go in and do something stupid because I've never used Cascade before.

Then sideboard... thinking I will see a lot of: Burn, Affinity, and other Jund --  Thinking the Deck / sideboard will look something like this? :

Deck

4 Bloodbraid Elf 4 Dark Confidant 2 Grim Lavamancer 3 Kitchen Finks 4 Tarmogoyf Creatures [17] 3 Liliana of the Veil Planeswalkers [4] 4 Inquisition of Kozilek 4 Lightning Bolt 3 Maelstrom Pulse 2 Terminate 2 Thoughtseize Spells [15] 4 Blackcleave Cliffs 2 Blood Crypt 1 Copperline Gorge 2 Forest 1 Overgrown Tomb 2 Raging Ravine 1 Stomping Ground 2 Swamp 4 Treetop Village 2 Twilight Mire 4 Verdant Catacombs

SIDEBOARD

2 Anathemancer
3 Ancient Grudge
1 Combust
1 Jund Charm
2 Torpor Orb
2 Obstinate Baloth
3 Thorn of Amethyst
1 Duress


What would you put in AND TAKE OUT... the take out part is most important [for me] since I don't know this deck THAT well..

I am thinking....

Affinity.. + 3 Ancient Grudge + 1 Jund Charm // - 2 Liliana - 2 Dark Confidant

Splinter Twin.. + 1 Combust + 2 Torpor Orbs (?) // - 3 Kitchen Finks

Jund Mirror.. + 2 Anathemancer + 2 Baloth // - 3 Liliana -1 Thoughtseize  ?

Boros / Burn.. + 2 Baloth + 1 Jund Charm +1 Duress // - 2 Thoughtseize  - 2 Dark Confidant

POD.. + 3 Ancient Grudge + 2 Torpor Orb + 1 Jund Charm // - 3 Kitchen Finks - 2 ....  not sure... what would be optimal?

It's late I can't think... please help if you're able... thank you very much
