I did manage to use all five tokens but only went 2-2 due to my poor play, the deck is sweeeet though. I beat titi phoenix and wb deadguy ale. Lost g2 and g3 to uw control due to my poor play...losing g3 to my bitterblossom with much more than lethal on board was annoying . My other loss was this enduring ideal deck I had no answers to...thinking of putting force of vigor in the sb?

I've been trying Bitterblossoms a lot lately and have come to the conclusion that you just can't play them in Modern right now. Control has too many planeswalkers that can bounce creatures and Wraths to reset you that all you're really doing is giving them a clock. As chump blockers against other more aggressive decks they also just put yourself on a clock.
Assassin's Trophy would be great card to consider as a sideboard or possibly maindeck as a catch-all, giving a basic rarely matters but being able to recast it multiple times definitely could.
I agree, I think bitterblossom definitely hurt my odds vs uw control. I won't run them next time. Trophy is interesting but I think I'd prefer something cmc three or more though like force of vigor so it won't get cascaded into. On the other hand violent outburst does let arcanist cast trophy...hm...
I haven't played modern since I ran this previously but went 3-1 this time! I still need to pick up force of vigors. Suggestions welcome! I beat urza thopters/modern dnt with eldrazi/ur titi phoenix lost to affinity.
