I've been playing UG infect in Modern for a little while now, but I decided that the manabase was too consistent and I didn't have enough dumb cards in it. So I added some red with Ghor-Clan Rampager and Temur Battle Rage, because trample is awesome and Double strike with trample is pretty awesome too. Deck: Temur Infect     //Lands 3 Breeding Pool 1 Forest 4 Inkmoth Nexus 1 Island 4 Misty Rainforest 2 Pendelhaven 2 Stomping Ground 2 Windswept Heath //Spells 2 Apostle's Blessing 2 Distortion Strike 3 Gitaxian Probe 4 Groundswell 4 Might of Old Krosa 4 Mutagenic Growth 2 Rancor 2 Temur Battle Rage 4 Vines of Vastwood //Creatures 4 Blighted Agent 2 Ghor-Clan Rampager 4 Glistener Elf 4 Noble Hierarch  Display deck statisticsThis is the dumbest poo poo ever, right? Ghor-clan seems pretty awkward in there now that I look at it, but I like having another pump that gives trample. Temur Battle Rage might be too expensive for the deck, and it provides no bolt protection, but it can just win the game immediately if there are no blockers.

I'm not sure if those four red cards are any better than just running two more Rancors and just plain Giant Growths. I thought Infect was fast as poo poo already when it worked, why spread the mana out and potentially give your opponent more time to answer?

Why not run Flesh // Blood instead of Temur Battle Rage? It's the same effect but you can use it before combat regardless of the board state or use it second main phase if your guy sticks around.

Ok guys. I think I've finalized the super awesome jank for tomorrow. I'll see if I can't get a couple games out of it tonight at FNM. (We're doing draft this week.) Jeskai Legends 3 Battlefield Forge 4 Flooded Strand 2 Island 4 Mystic Monastery 3 Plains 3 Shivan Reef 2 Temple of Enlightenment 2 Temple of Triumph 1 Mana Confluence 1 Alesha, Who Smiles at Death 2 Anax and Cymede 4 Brimaz, King of Oreskos 2 Daxos of Meletis 3 Narset, Enlightened Master 3 Shu Yun, the Silent Tempest 4 Hero's Blade 4 Jeskai Charm 4 Lightning Strike 3 Temur Battle Rage 4 Valorous Stance 2 Dig Through Time Sideboard 3 Anger of the Gods 3 Disdainful Stroke 1 Negate 3 Stubborn Denial 2 Erase 2 Elspeth, Sun's Champion 1 Polymorphist's Jest The major changes include the decision to drop to 15 creatures. I'm leaning heavily on Narset's ability to just close out the game, which she has done in spectacular fashion so far. And I removed the two Arc Lightning in the sideboard for a 3rd Disdainful Stroke and a Polymorphist's Jest. The jest is a hilarious flip with trampling Narset and can close out the game by itself if they decide to overblock her. (She is almost always alone on my side of the field in the late game. And, I'm often kept alive by judicious use of Jeskai Charm's lifelink ability.) And making the opponent's creatures 1/1s with a triggered Anax + Cymede is basically a board wipe where they still take damage. By far, the biggest weakness of the deck is straight control. End Hostilities destroys your blades along with the creatures they're attached to, and while the sideboard counter suite is fairly impressive, it can be difficult to close out the game if they're able to resolve more than one draw spell before you kill them. But almost no one in my meta plays straight U/W or U/B control. So, we'll see how that goes.

Deck: Simic Morph //Main 8 Forest 4 Island 4 Sagu Mauler 1 Kruphix, God of Horizons 4 Trail of Mystery 4 Rattleclaw Mystic 3 Nylea, God of the Hunt 4 Temple of Mystery 4 Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx 4 Temur Sabertooth 4 Icefeather Aven 4 Yavimaya Coast 4 Elvish Mystic 4 Courser of Kruphix 4 Whisperwood Elemental //Sideboard 2 Back to Nature 3 Naturalize 3 Hunt the Hunter 4 Polukranos, World Eater 3 Reality Shift Display deck statisticsSo I've been going slowly insane working on this deck. It's tantalizing - what started off as a janky Secret Plans rogue deck has developed into something that maybe, just possibly, has potential. Whisperwood Elemental is a powerful card that rewards playing lots of creatures, which leads to Icefeather Aven and Sagu Mauler - turns a 6/6 trample hexproof beast for 5 cmc is pretty good. Trail of Mystery looks a bit strange, but it's actually pretty essential to how the deck works - the shuffle effect works well with Courser, and the card draw adds even more of a punch to Whisperwood. Plus, the +2/+2 on the flip is great and really helps with the surprise blocks. Nylea is an excellent fit in this deck and is easy to activate, while Kruphix as the one-of mostly operates as a fourth Nylea. That said, this deck can produce huge amounts of mana, and have lots of place to stick it, so Kruphix can be useful. The deck wins through incremental card and mana advantage. The sideboard is pretty straightforward. Perilous Vault is a boogey man for this deck, so naturalize holds its own based on just that, and it's effective against the Ascendancy combos. Hunt the Hunter is good against Abzan, especially Fleecemane Lions, and Reality Shift provides creature removal and exile effects. Polukranos comes in against aggressive and token decks, and could probably justify itself in the mainboard. For the moment though, I feel like the blow-out potential of Sagu Mauler against midrange and control decks makes it the big creature of choice. Honestly, I feel like I've been messing around with this deck too long and lost objectivity. I've been playing people on XMage and haven't lost yet, but that's probably just because people are terrible. I doubt this deck, in this form, is going to be top tier, but... the main core seems powerful. It doesn't fold outright to any of the major decks, and I never really feel like I can't win. I suspect that a stronger version in a different color combination - Sultai gives access to superior creature and PW removal, while Gruul/Temur gives access to burn and some really powerful creatures.

I really want to run Flamewake Phoenix and Alesha in the same deck, but I feel like maybe the Phoenix doesn't fit here because the only reliable ways to activate its ability is Purphoros and the Firedrinker Satyr.

That's really the issue. Flamewake and Eidolon of the Great Revel are anti-synergistic to the deck. With all the mid-range and control floating around, I will guarantee you that you'll be doing way more damage to yourself with Eidolon than to your opponent who will take 2 to drop a Courser then wall it for days. So, does anyone think Modern Jund Dredge could work with a Lotleth Troll/Vengevine/Flamewake Phoenix/Golgari Grave Troll shell? I'm seriously considering this as my first real foray into Modern, but I have absolutely no experience with dredge strategies. I've already started building the deck (got the Vengevines, Bloodghasts, Phoenix, and 3 of 4 Lotleth Trolls), but I'm wondering if it is worth collecting the final pieces.

The sideboard is garbage and I need to rework it. I also need to get rid of that one Plains that I think I was using as a placeholder for a Mana Confluence. Initial impression that I and my opponents had were that the deck is extremely aggressive while still having a few tools if I got stuck in a longer game (Kolaghan and Outpost Siege mostly). I'm debating on adding at least one more Brutal Hordechief and moving Mardu Ascendancy into the sideboard.

So I built a thing. Deck: Azorius Soulblade //Lands 4 Darksteel Citadel 4 Flooded Strand 3 Island 3 Plains 4 Temple of Enlightenment 4 Tranquil Cove //Spells 4 Cloudform 2 Dig Through Time 2 Disdainful Stroke 4 Ensoul Artifact 4 Ghostfire Blade 2 Lightform 2 Monastery Siege 3 Negate 2 Reality Shift //Creatures 2 Archetype of Courage 1 Medomai the Ageless 1 Monastery Mentor 2 Nyx-Fleece Ram 4 Ornithopter 2 Phyrexian Revoker 1 Thassa, God of the Sea //Sideboard 1 Nyx-Fleece Ram 1 Spectra Ward 3 Erase 1 Disdainful Stroke 1 Reality Shift 1 Archetype of Courage 4 Gods Willing 1 Lightform 2 Phyrexian Revoker Display deck statisticsNot sure how good it is exactly but I managed 2-2 at FNM yesterday at least. Could have been 3-1 if I'd let my Round 1 Control opponent resolve a Dig on my end step and countered the followup Resolute Archangel instead, had him all the way down to 1.  Cloudform does work and is super tough to remove. Voltroning up a Cloudform or Lightform with a counter up for removal feels pretty great. Not to mention the potential early beats of an Ensouled Citadel/Ornithopter. Medomai is mostly there for laughs but I just like the idea of Manifesting him too much to drop him (plus I don't have anything I desperately want over him for game 1). If I had a second Mentor I'd probably replace him with that but I'm not buying one of those anytime soon. The Archetypes help take care of Bees because Bees are the only real thing that put the brakes on my dominance of the skies. I thought about replacing the Negates with Stubborn Denials but it's just not consistent enough that the Negates end up better.

See a Hornet Queen hit the board? Throw another warrior on the board. I'm actually surprised how many people didn't notice Rabblemaster was a warrior when I'd drop it to take out their graveyard dudes. You'll still need an answer to the lifelink that Whip provides, however, but I've been successful at keeping the opponent from whipping creatures back into play at least. Definitely a relevant ability in this environment.

Lancelot posted:Deck: Smize at Death As others have said I really don't like Eidolon in this deck, most of what you're casting will get your burned by Eidolon and you're already losing life off of Pain Seer. I don't like any of the Ferocious cards either, Purphoros probably won't be a creature most of the time and it seem folly to burn yourself pumping Firedrinker to activate Ferocious. I think I see what you're going for here, which is to sac creatures to Tymaret, then recur them through various means, get Purphoros damage, and repeat. To that end I think Mardu Strike Leader might be maindeck-able here. Also general PSA- when posting lists from Deckstats, can we turn off the option to show mana symbols next to card names? They're .gif files and on the Awful app those appear as giant GIF icons until you load them, which makes such lists tough to read. VV Oh yeah, that too.

I want to see a trip report from people with Standard FNMs/PPTQs who ran Jeskai Legends (aka Real American Heroes), because I've been playtesting it a lot and it just folds under any sort of pressure from Abzan Midrange. Oh, it will absolutely wreck Whip if it gets some gas in its engine, but it has a hard time dealing with Sorin (whose ultimate is the bane of the deck's existence, which manifested in a game where I didn't see a single Temur Battle Rage or Lightning Strike the whole game, and Narset's hail mary attack turned up four lands) and Wingmate Roc. It's fun jank, don't get me wrong, but oh my can it turn up some real ugly hands.

OK, I've brewed this up for FNM Deck: Untitled Deck //Main 4 Tormenting Voice 4 Alesha, Who Smiles at Death 3 Seeker of the Way 4 Ponyback Brigade 4 Butcher of the Horde 3 Monastery Swiftspear 4 Crackling Doom 2 Chained to the Rocks 2 Mardu Charm 4 Lightning Strike 2 Dragon Mantle 4 Bloodstained Mire 3 Temple of Silence 1 Temple of Triumph 4 Battlefield Forge 2 Nomad Outpost 2 Swamp 4 Mountain 4 Plains Display deck statisticsThe idea is to use the tormenting voice to get ponyback in to the graveyard and then fetch that badboy back with Alesha. Lot's of removal to get the early game sorted and the tormenting voice also triggers prowess to make the early game viable. Butcher to have a sac outlet to put the ponys back in the graveyard however by that time the engine should be in full swing so that might be a bit redundant. I've goldfished a ton and it really seems viable, anything I'm missing?

I ran Jeskai Legendary at this past FNM. I went 3-1. Lost to UB control in the first round 1-2, way too much removal. That deck is this one's perfect foil. Won round 2 2-1 against a cobbled-together Sultai Villainous Wealth. Only lost the second game because he had more fogs than I had combat phases. Won third round 2-1 against UW heroic, game 3 was super close though - won at 1 life. I can't remember what round 4 was against but I went 2-1 there too. Think I'm going to drop the Aleshas for a third Daxos and maybe a Stoke or something. It just feels like she's not doing much in the deck, and there aren't a lot of legends in Jeskai colours that can replace her. Maybe a fourth Brimaz? He's pretty tits with 2 Blades on him.

I just took a variation of this to the final of a PPTQ, it was pretty strong in a heavy control field - 5 of top 8. Not sure where I found the original list. The board was weird - had 3 of the 1/2 enchantment tutors to find the Chains but not a fourth chain, so changed the board around a bit. Main I was +1 Nykthos +2 Wind-Scarred Crag -3 Mountain -1 Sarkhan -2 Ashcloud Phoenix + 1 Goblin Rabblemaster +1 Purphoros It was really strong against control but folds to Abzan (as I found out today in a GPT, lost to it in semi).

Originally when I thought this up it did have Hordeling Outburst, but the deck is so all in on Prowess that it seemed better to just puke dudes for cheaper. And if World of Warcraft has taught me anything, its that Goblins can't be Monks, so more Rabblemasters is a no-go. I actually think a deck like that might be legitimate if Arid Mesa was legal. Chained is awesome as removal, but I can't help but imagine you'd get screwed by a lack of mountains if there's a roadblock like Courser in the way.

We could do it in RTR because Shocklands are legitimately good fixing for multiple colors, but fetchlands are super mediocre at fixing your mana in a three color shell. The bigger problem here is giant loving blowouts to Anger and Drown in Sorrow. But all weenie aggro decks kind of have that problem.
