To be honest, I originally made this list in 2019, and haven't had a chance to remake it. I think I will definitely have to consider those as a wincon, thanks for the suggestion!

I might suggest curse of the bloody tome for more consistent milling, and maybe splashing black or red for removal spells since it looks like a turn one delver or fast affinity hand demolishes your deck.

Also considering you have so many high cost spells in your sideboard and the fact that you have a hard time getting up to three mana consistently, I would definitely up your land count.

The thing is with mox opal, you can use it as a short burst of mana when you draw multiples of them, which is why it's so good. You really do need to have more lands or mox opals, I've tried drawing dozens of multiple opening hands and I have had to mulligan my opener around half the time at least, and then when going to six I've had to mulligan a lot as well; you just do not have enough mana to get up to your three drops consistently. Lotus bloom is fine, but it's only a burst of mana, and if you use all of it then and don't have any lands or mox opals you can't cast any more spells; in a fast format like modern you can't afford to be slipping up this much on mana. I'm not trying to be rude with my advice, but I've been playing the format for a few years with mostly aggressive decks like burn and if you slip up for more than a turn you are usually dead.

I would honestly go up to four mox opals if possible (maybe cutting the lotus blooms, they just don't seem right in a deck that is trying to be aggressive) and maybe go up to like 16-18 lands because it seems incredibly hard to cast your spells with how few lands there are currently.

This deck seems like it could use some Walking Ballistas, they would probably be better than the Rishkars in the deck right now; other than that the deck looks great!

Okay I think your changes really help the deck out a lot! I agree that keeping flayer in the deck is a good idea, though I'm not sure it wouldn't be better than including another color in the deck. I know you said you didn't want to move into jund, and I understand if you don't want to still, it's just that the removal spells and support spells in jund or abzan versions of this deck (tarfire or path, lingering souls or kolaghan's command and temur battle rage) are very good and having more shocks to get your life total lower is helpful. If not, I would consider adding dismember as an additional removal spell somewhere in the main or side because of the double phyrexian mana in it's cost while also being a solid removal spell. I hope this helps!

I think you should have more fetches so you can get to delirium quicker and can get below thirteen for death's shadow faster. In my experience having four of each discard spell is much better, so I might consider cutting two Dryads for the fourth inquisition and thoughtseize.

I actually have most of these cards in my paper version of the deck, I just neglected to change my online version. Thanks for the suggestions!

You can blame the modern Tron players for the price of Chromatic Star, since post Twin ban they seem to be the "best deck in the format", at least speculatively.

Well cultivate is better most of the time since you're able to get islands with it. I find that adding more ramp is usually a good option in my commander decks, but I'm not sure what to take out.

Why not both?

Okay now I'm seeing the wording correctly, sorry about that. :3

Seems like a lot of lands for a modern deck, maybe cut a couple islands. Possibly increase on the serum visions as a way to have more turn one plays, and another way to get easy value off of jace flashbacks.

Why no rain of gore in the mainboard? Wouldn't that make you more consistent? Or do the Idyllic tutors make it consistent enough?

Maybe Blighted Woodland as another mana source and a pseudo ramp spell. :3

Yeah I might consider sideboarding that, not sure how many I want.

I might consider putting in Atog as another way to sacrifice your artifacts and dealing damage.

Alright I'll go ahead and implement your suggestions, thanks! :D

Yeah that's exactly what I'm thinking, or at least this list is partially wrong.
