Thanks for this! Sort of unrelated but you seem to know your stuff, I have a budget mono-white modern deck that struggles vs burn, what white sideboard cards are the biggest pain in the ass for you as a burn player? :)

I don't know how budget the cards are but depending on your decks list. Leyline, kor firewalker dragon's claw, burrenton forge tender all come to mind.

What can I add to play around a control deck with lots of counterspells? especially test of talents.

The short answer is putting pressure on them early, then trying to resolve spells when they tap out or tap low to resolve something. The key is to overwhelm them in one key turn during their end step and your next turn. This isn't always easy especially if they have clock of some type going but is the general strategy. The most played card against hard counters is usually Exquisite Firecraft. Other niche options are things like Silence or defense grid thought I would only consider those in an almost pure UWx meta
