Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


How to Play

Bide your time controlling the board and ripping problem cards from your opponents hand until you can Poly into your Big threats ( Emrakul, or Iona for the mono colored match-ups). Proteus staff acts like Polymorph 5-7.

Deck discussion for BUG Modern Polymorph

I like it but I am a little concerned that you may have moved too far from your engine. I'd like to fit maybe two proteus staff back in the deck so that you are more likely to draw into it. Possibly -1 Echoing Truth and -1 IoK for +2 Proteus Staff.

As for getting tokens out I've got a couple ideas one you could go back and get some of the Khalni Gardens or alternatively you could try out manlands of which mutavault would most likely be best here. If you here to go either of these routes I would drop the Drowned Catacombs and one Island.

The Dismiss in there, is that mistake? That card is not modern legal and Cryptic Command also overshadows it in my opinion with your array of shocks. If you don't have the cryptics though I would definitely advise proxying it to try them before picking up as it may be getting too greedy with the mana here.

The decks cool though if you get the chance to test it, I'd be interested in what you think needs to be improved or sideboarding.

Yeah the dismiss was a mistake, was not thinking at the time. Put in spell pierce as another 1cmc counter. I recently read Travis Woo's article on a similar polymorph deck where he had Dryad arbor in as his polymorph creature. Since I'm running six fetches that can search for her I think that's the route i'm gonna test. I'll add some Mutavaults as a plan B if Dryad dies. Also added in Mizzium Skin, seems like a no brainer at 1cmc. Made some room for Proteus Staff as well. Gonna test it out on MTGO tonight.

Yah, I had thought about manlands but I forgot about Dryad Arbor that is definitely a strong choice. Lemme know how it goes.
