Shortly before MH2 spoiled the entire deck was being legalized in Modern I tried throwing a list together. As predicted it was bad, but I won a handful of games solely off Archon of Sun's Grace being...

It costs 2 mana. Automatic 4-of, typeline "Legendary" be damned.

My god it's a decent sidegrade to Solitary Confinement!

Pros:
Not engine-dependant
Doesn't lose to Petty...

Completely untested, but my gut says that if Loevold is a real card we want at least 2 pieces of effecient creature removal (i.e. cheaper than Oblivion Ring) mainboard. Either Abrupt Decay for...

If anything the absurd power of Destiny Spinner means GSZ is a must play, seeing as it can now act as an engine piece, blocker, counterspell hate, big mana wincon and a 4-5 power beater all for 3...

Having an Enchantress that can actually block is pretty huge, could be super useful in game 2 if they board out removal. Honestly I was confused as hell about Setessan Champion when she was previewed...

Pseudo-Sterling Grove/enchantment Benevolent Bodyguard

Enchantment Creature

Lifelink

I'm mainboarding the full 4 and don't regret it yet. Have run into a few play patterns where the correct move is to do nothing on turn 1, just play Forest and pass, hold up green blast for...

Re: Narset. Qasali Pridemage might be relevant. Naturalizing stuff is already good, and if you have an Argothian down already you can swing in with Exalted to put her to 2. At that point they need to...

I want to believe. I've always felt the deck needed a second card like Elephant Grass that can be deployed fairly early to buy time. Suppression Field does an alright job in that role but maybe this...

If you're adding planeswalkers, when is Estrid better than good ol' Garruk Wildspeaker? +1 is better until you have 3 growths and he can actually effect the board. Estrid wins bigger, that's for...

I can think of very few matchups where my opponent's removal actually matters and I want to give up Rest in Peace for a 5 CMC value spell. There has to be an upper limit to the number of...

Is the anthem/sac effect relevant? Cryptolith Rite might just be better.

Wondering if there is a way to make GSZ suck less when that damn elf rears his ugly head. Grove finds any member of Clan Oblivion Ring and Wish gets Karakas or Devout Lightcaster for style points....

Okay that is awesome. Think I'll be giving this a try.


The biggest benefit for Cast Out for me has been casting it in response to Rishadan Port activations. The cycling is okay, it mainly lets...

This. Gaea's Touch often functions like a ritual that replaces itself (play > activate > sac nets 1 Green mana, if you have a Sanctum online you get an extra White too). Late game it functions...

If anything you play it alongside Suppression Field to improve the chance of slowing their manabase to a crawl (hell, maybe you go HAM and throw in some number of Root Maze). Running these kind of...

So at what point do we try jamming in 3-4 Deathrite Shaman and see what happens? I feel like 8 pieces of ramp on turn 1 just isn't enough and have never truly been satisfied with Exploration or Dryad...

Against Sneak and Show I've had my best success with some combination of Gaddock Teeg, Suppression Field, and Choke. Really you want to turn off Sneak Attack ASAP since that can actually kill you....

Suppression Field, Choke and Gaddock Teeg have all been dynamite against Sneak and Show in my experience. Oblivion Ring is relevant and Emrakul has secret text "If they play Show and Tell they die."...

So I haven't been able to play much this year, but is there any reason we're not just jamming 3+ Enlightened Tutor and shooting people in the face? We naturally have more than enough card draw...

Asymmetry. Having to wait a turn to cash in a Sanctum sucks. Giving text to StP can be bad but there might be some merit to the body.

So I've been unable to play much at all for months (btw From Beyond is in fact terrible) but when I was active I was running 3 Suppression Fields with 5 or 4 fetchlands, GW because I'm cheap and...

If anything I'm tempted to splash black and jam Cadaverous Bloom or Squandered Resources to help power it out even faster, but one thing at a time. We probably sideline Suppression Field as well....

Stop me if this sounds completely idiotic, but in a weird way doesn't From Beyond do everything we want? It sucks that it costs 4 mana and (usually) does nothing the turn it comes out, but

It...
