I can see that being the right call. Ensoul Artifact is pretty bonkers, especially on Darksteel Citadel.

Man this is looking awesome! The only thing i could suggest is think about adding some kind of man land. I'm not saying go crazy with them or anything, but even just running 1 gives Loam even more value.

Thanks! i'v been tinkering with this one for a while now. Honestly it's one of my favorites at the moment. It's just so fun to play. Love me some Gifts Ungiven too.

Pretty neat idea. Seems like it could be pretty mean if it gets going. The only thing i worry about is spending 3 mana (and probably an entire turn) just to get Snipe killed. Without any other creatures in the deck(Goyf is somewhat harder to kill) i feel he'd just be a lightning rod.

That's an interesting Idea. I had thought about using Jace Beleren when i first constructed the deck, but he just never made the cut. Which Chandra where you thinking of?

Yeah, i do think Shard Volley is a pretty interesting option, but i just don't think i could squeeze any in. I can see them being awesome in Aggro Loam though.

I'm surprised to see you playing 3 Ultimatum. Most lists i see now have cut back to 1, some even run none! It's an amazing card no doubt, it's just not something you want to be drawing multiples of early in the game. How have you been liking Murderous Cut? What do you think about cutting that for Dig Through Time? Dig is pretty insane in control decks, and it's delve is pretty easily established.

Deck looks awesome though.

Looks pretty insane. I don't think i would even change anything. Double Sphinx's Rev might be overboard though. Maybe a split between Rev, and Dig Through Time would be better.

So how have you been feeling about the black splash? Is it worth to add a 3rd color for 2 discard spells, a Lili, and Darkblast? I'v seen a few Grixis Twin builds, and i admit they look pretty fun. I just can;t figure out if i think that black splash is actually worth it. Right now in this Treasure Cruise heavy meta, discard is at it's worst.

As far as Terminate vs Dismember, that's a hard call. I think I would personally play Terminate, just to have a way to kill something outside of Burn range.

All in all the deck looks pretty sweet though.

Could you take a look at a modern deck i'v been working on for a while?

Love me some storm. This looks pretty good. It's almost stick but just a little off. I actually only run 16 land in my list, and you don;t really need 17. I think if you're running a maindeck Empty you don't need 3 grapeshot either. I've seen some people running treasure Cruise in the deck lately, maybe try that with those 2 open slots.


Could you take a look at this

Ambush Viper seems pretty bad. it's basically just 2 cmc removal that only kills attackers. i'd rather just be running Scavenging ooze for disruption and a potential fatty. have you thought about adding some Silence to the deck to play with Scepter. A Silence on Scepter can get pretty annoying, and can be hard to deal with. Main dek Runed Halo is a little odd. I do think it can be a good card, but i also think it's better suited for side boards. Cool deck though.

Would you be able to take a modern look at a deck i'v been working on?
http://www.mtgvault.com/alleywayjack/decks/modern-assault-gifts/

If you're only splashing black for Thoughtseize and an underpowered Tribal Flames it doesn't seem worthwhile. I feel like at that point you're better off just playing Naya zoo. if you do wanna keep the black i would suggest maybe Abrupt Decay somewhere in the 75. i also would rather be playing Inquisition of Kozilek than Thoughtseize, but i guess you can be aggressive enough to that -2 life to not hurt too much. Siege Rhino is something to think about also, that could really make the black splash worth while. It's 4 mana, but it has a huuuge impact if it resolves. this guy is the real deal.

If you get a chance, could you check out this modern deck i'v been working on?

Pretty neat concept. I've always loved Sleeper Agent. I used to have a casual deck somewhat like this waaaay back in the day. I remember just having a bunch of Walls and Sleeper Agents, haha. This looks cool though. I'm not sure how i feel about Stab Wound though. I guess it's pretty versatile, and on theme, but it just seems kind of weak for 3 mana.

Would you check out this modern deck i'v been working on?
http://www.mtgvault.com/alleywayjack/decks/modern-assault-gifts/

I don't actually think Master of the Feast is that good. Letting your opp draw extra cards in Modern can be a really bad idea. There's a goods chance he's going to find a Path to Exile, Abrupt Decay, etc, or even the last piece of their combo. the card qaulity is just too strong in Modern, and i don;t think Master of the Feast is worth his draweback.

I would definitely want more Scavenging Ooze maindeck if possible. The combination of disruption and potential big creature is too good to pass up.

I also think having some more discard main is a good idea. Even if your trying to be aggro, having 4 Inquisition of Kozilek will help a lot.

Pretty interesting deck. Kor Spiritdancer is definitely the powerhouse of the deck. She is just crazy. But i like the Sage of Hours thing that's going on here too. I can see Hardened Scales getting pretty out of control if it lands early. Not having any removal or ways to interact means you're pretty all in though. Seems like a fun deck.

Would you mind checking out a modern deck i'v been working on?
http://www.mtgvault.com/alleywayjack/decks/modern-assault-gifts/

You're almost on to something here. The idea is alright, but the execution is a little flawed. Right off the bat i would get rid of Ætherspouts, Pooling Venom, Consecrated Sphynx, and Oppressive Rays. Your removal could be a little better too actually.

You definitely want to go up to 4 on Arbiter, and to really take advantage of Arbiter, run Ghost Quarters instead of Tec Edges, and run Path to Exile for removal. Also, really the main reason to add black would be for discard. I suggest running 4 Inquisition of Kozilek. You could also look at Duress, or Thoughtseize.

I can definitely get behind this deck. This looks pretty sweet actually. I'm honestly surprised you're not playing Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir. he just plays so awesome with Teachings; being able to tutor Teferi- then because Teferi gives all your other creatures flash, you can flashback Teachings for whatever other fatty is in the deck.

I'm not a huge fan of the Draining Whelk here though. Although it's not a card I've ever actually played with, it seems subpar. I'd rather just run like a single Wurmcoil Engine, or Grave Titan. Something that has more significant impact.

Recently changed this up a bit to make some space for a set of Goyfs. The deck still plays like a control deck, but having such an efficient threat gives the deck a lot more options, and lets you constantly pressure the opponent. The deck has been running a lot more consistently now.
