Need some help here guys.

I am planning a deck centered on Grand Architect, Pili-Pala, Enter the Infinite and Omniscience. What I need is a low cost way to even this out and make it consistent. Also does anyone think this would actually be a viable deck to play at a FNM?

It would be a janky deck at most, things with Grand Architect and Pili-Pala has never really worked in Modern, sorry.

No reason to be sorry :smile: I get a lot of random ideas I think would work awesome, but only really play at local Modern tourneys so don't really know the full meta.

Thanks for the input.

I tried doing this but like what people mentioned, the combo isn't competitive. What I've tried was build an Architect deck similar to its Standard roots. Also, instead of Omniscience/Enter the Infinite, why not just use Blue Sun's Zenith for infinite on your opponent. Worst case scenario, you can end of turn Zenith to draw cards.

I was thinking of having the Blue Suns Zenith in there as well, I have a casual deck right now that is about me cycling through my entire deck and winning with Laboratory Maniac, my friends hate it haha. With this idea I was thinking of taking that deck and adding these cards plus Borborygmos Enraged to give me a few win con options. I think I may still build it but it may end up a casual only deck idk

Why can't it start with 4x lotus bloom instead of a convoluted mana engine? Petals of Insight still seems to be awesone for finding a win condition (slaver lock?) I know that its creeping into blue tron territory but maybe it could be tuned to work with the blue turbo turns cards (time warp, time stretch.) Seems fun but yeah, janky.

Petals of Insight seems like a good card, but the rest are getting out of my price range unfortunately. I have to build on a small budget. That being said, I like the ideas you have presented.

Why not just play OmniTell in Legacy? It's too hard to assemble combos in Modern. Legacy OmniTell needs 12 1cc cantrips to have any consistency of assembling even with free countermagic protection, and this format lacks all those cards.

I think Omniscience is only playable in two cases:
1) When you can cast it for 2U
2) When your deck actually aims to get 10 mana out by ramping and casting a ton of fogs in a really slow format, i.e. Maze's End.dec or OmniDoorThragFire
