Hey...nice deck. I'm working with a new steal and sac deck too. Just retired a Braids Blue deck along the same lines. Corrupted Conscience is a hell of a card that suits your theme. Greater Good for extra sweet card draw. Also, have you considered any of the Altars? Other than those, you've hit the nail on the head with your setup.
Good job here dude!

Got a guy who puts Imprisoned in the Moon and Cyclonic Rift in literally every deck. He loves screwing with my commander too...just a bit of protection there. Thanks for suggestion! Maybe some other removal then...

Thanks for the suggestion. It was in there because it fit the gameplan of having my opponents hack away at each other. But to be fair, I see plenty of Skullclamps, Sac outlets and lifegain too...so it might not work as I intend. It's in the bin. Nice one!

I really like the look of this, nice to see an effort with synergy of a new set.
I'm looking to get back into Standard and wanted to keep it slightly budget, already have pieces for a UR Summonings deck I'm working on, but Black is usually my go to colour too.
So wondering if there was a way to bring down the cost of your deck without losing the potency? Replace the Copters with something maybe?
Also how often do you feel the Modules go off and have an impact on the board?
Thumbs up mate!

Good stuff there mate! Pretty sinister deck. I'm just wondering, in the big fast nasty world of modern, what your plan to stay alive til T5 is? Maybe this could benefit from some removal/burn? Murderous Cut perhaps, since you're filling the grave rapido. Rakshasa's Secret could be a double edged sword for you here too. Don't want to impose...just a could of 'two-penny' ideas!
As for sideboard, I think it just depends on your meta/playgroup. But first port of call for you is protecting your graveyard since this is the battery of your deck. Since you have a touch of blue in there already, perhaps some simple counters to stop those pesky game disrupting spells? Negate is always a classic for me. Also, are you facing any Grafdigger's Cage or Relic of Progenitus? Then instant destroy Artifacts would be a SB staple for sure. Black doesn't do it too well, but Red has some options...however, Slaughter Games could be an answer? Or simply another blue counter in the form of Annul.

Anyway, seems like a lot to take in there so I will stop...but great deck mate! Like from me!

On a budget, I find the Charms to be very useful. Temur Charm will give you some good options. Heir of the Wilds is a cheap T2 drop...who doesn't love deathtouch! Maybe take out Magma Jet (Lightning Strike is enough on its own). Also with some big beefs you got access to, the fight mechanic could work. Which I always include Hornet Nest in.
Other than that, card draw might help if your games go the distance. Treasure Cruise? Almost compulsory (or Dig) when playing blue in standard at the mo.
Anyway, just a few thoughts...

Great deck mate! I have a Sidisi that is more Token based, but love your take on it! I can't believe I missed Deadeye Navigator...great addition and one I will try to get hold of.
There's so much value in here, but I have two cards I could recommend for casual play which are fun when they go off. Grimoire of the Dead (Necronomicon!!!) for flavour and when it goes off it's horrible for everyone else. And Mortal Combat...which I can't use as I don't think I have enough creatures for it. Both are more for fun aspect than serious additions...just my two pennies in case you hadn't thought about them.

Anyway, sick deck! Like from me.

I really like this deck! Congrats on the originality aspects and keeping it budget. Can you tell me why you chose to have Keeper of the Lens in there? Do you face a lot of Manifest/Morph in your meta?

Good work...Like from me!

Cool deck! May I suggest...Stuffy Doll! Love that guy and he suits your deck I think. Just a thought! Maybe take out Talisman of Unity? Also I think your SB needs a bit of work. How do you think this will match up against control and non-creature decks? With a bit of tweaking you'll have a sweet deck here mate!

Like from me!

Hello! I'm a fellow Green Devotion addict. Working on the Ascendancy combo myself with a few differences.
Wondering what kind of value you get for 4 x Genesis Hydra before you go infinite? What value for X do you get early game?
Also I've found Kiora's Follower to be more desirable than Voyaging Sathr as it enables early ramp from the Acolyte pre-combo as well as land. Just a suggestion!
Good stuff though mate; like from me.
