Anvil of Bogardan lifts the hand size limit for all players and makes them draw/discard more. Not really "budget" with 5 bucks but it could have a place in this, couldn't it?

Dominus of Fealty. :)
Glad to help. :)For two of Defiant Strike I'd probably take out one Lantern Scout and one Temur Battlerage. I'd leave it at that for starters since Titan's Strength is probably the more important card in the end.
Center Soul and Artful Maneuver have Rebound, maybe that's desirable with Zada. And Defiant Strike gets you loads of cards with her, so maybe mainboard?This is looking like a pretty fun deck to overrun your opponent quickly! :)
Haven't tested this yet. If somebody has a bit experience how well Mastery of the Unseen works and how reliable that works, I'd appreciate the input.
I'll think about it. There's always a weakness after all. Having reliable removal seems preferable to me as I wouldn't know what to take out at the moment.Scour from Existence would also be a possibility in exchange for a removal-spell...
Dang, you're right. Thanks for reminding me!
When you run Sanguine Bond, you could also run Exquisite Blood for another killing-combo.
Awesome! Casual play.
Maybe in the next set there will be a few allies with Flash.
Nice one! I really like the RW allies in BfZ. My gf played with them (and a splash of black) at prerelease and they worked pretty great there as well.Northern, could you do a Highroller UR deck that utilizes Illusionist's Bracers to the fullest, maybe with ping, draw and other activated abilites? Would love to see that.
While I do love Sleep I think I have the ninja dealing damage covered by my unblockable-spells/abilities for now.
While I don't think I can fit Impact Tremors in this deck without taking essential stuff out, I reworked some parts of the pool. I added a third Heelcutter 'cause he really is great. I also added third Mardu Scout for more early pressure (although I maybe could exchange this one with another Warbringer). Took out both Orc Sureshots. For that I reworked the removal portion a bit. Cheaper CMC, so that it fits better with Dash. Took out Elspeth for that, as well, since more tempo seemed a lot better than a Planeswalker for 6 mana.Also, reworked the manabase after the changes and took out two temples to reduce the number of "enters tapped"-lands. I'd love to run two more Bloodstained Mire but I don't have 'em. :)Thanks for the input, guys, and sorry for the late response. Been meaning to work on this deck but didn't find the time till now.
If more attack enablers (for walls) are needed, there's also "Rolling Stones":Enchantment for 1W. Wall creatures can attack as though they didn't have Defender.
Maybe Grave Betrayal could fit in there?
Hey Pusckin, Sorry for the late response, kinda forgot. Many thanks for your input! I'm gonna address your suggestions.-While I wouldn't run 4 Ornithopters - I think 3 suffice with the other one drop enablers -, I agree that there should be more than two Military Intelligence in the deck. I don't think I could justify 4 because I only know of one card at the moment I would take out for a third Military Intelligence.-As creatures Automaton and Herald are too easily removed for my taste. Also if I have creatures I want to attack with them in this deck to enable Ninjutsu. Automaton could easily die to blockers and even if it doesn't I bounce my stuff on a regular basis which means losing the buff.And with Convoke the +2/+2 bonus from Obelisk of Urd hits pretty hard.-So, basically you're suggesting to take out the Sage Owl and run a second Epityr, right? I can get behind that. I chose the Owl because it has flying to have one more enabler but two Epityrs does have merit. Or would you maybe take out the Omenspeaker for another Epityr instead of the Owl?- Thalakos Seer was in an earlier version of this deck. I kinda wanted to limit myself a little though (and sometimes I find Legacy a little imbalanced). That's the reason why I chose Modern. I'd also love to put Baleful Strix in there but for now I'm staying with this format.-Invisible Stalker, mmmhh. I'm pretty torn about it. As an enabler I feel he's too expensive, I like to focus on 0/1-drops for that. And he has no Enter/Leave-the-battlefield ability that I can abuse with Ninjutsu. I'd have to test him but for now I'm pretty content with my enablers.-Well, the point of the Kusari Gama was to make it unattractive for my opponent to block certain creatures. So either stuff dies, I use Ninjutsu and/or trigger combat damage abilities. But this may very well be the card I'd take out for a third Military Intelligence as mentioned above. Banshee Blade could be nice but the third Military Intelligence is probably more valuable after all.Umezawa's Jitte on the other hand is probably the Magic card I hate the most. Such a badly designed POS. No hooks, no conditions, no wonder it's banned. Ridiculous.-Can't afford 'em. :D-Mmmh, didn't have much trouble yet as I start to bounce blockers pretty quickly. Once blockers are out there I come in with Virulent Swipe forcing to make the opponent some choices he/she might not like. And with the card draw as it is, I can surely follow up quickly once a Ninja dies. In emergencies Vapor Snag let's me bounce my stuff, Thassa and Higure make unblockable and Walker of Secret Ways and Faerie Impostor get my Ninjas back as well. Keymaster Rogue, while perfect on paper, I find too expensive for 4 mana. Wouldn't know what to take out as well. -For my Goblin deck you suggested Infiltration Lens. Still thinking how it would fit in here. It's a pretty awesome card and I'd love to run it (for the lore alone =D ). Got any idea how to work that in here?
It may be sorcery and 1U. Still seems rather practical for this deck. Can speed things up considerably as you can selfmill up to five cards or just put them back in any order optimizing your next turns.
Maybe Taigam's Scheming instead of Thoughtscour?Gives you more control what gets into your graveyard and sets up your next turns, doesn't net you a draw though.
I just clicked on your name because of the other deck, saw the tag "You're joking!" and got curious. :D
Mmmh, Mnemonic Nexus seems to help your opponents after you probably milled them a bit. Maybe use Cranial Archive instead. Offers more control who gets to shuffle.
