Thought about it, but it's really useful up in there...

Sure, he'd be good here, but I just don't like to use him where I can barely have him as a creature...

The problem is that you're trying to utilize multiple comboes that don't connect with each other & you ended up using 2-2 copies of some of the elements in your comboes... ...& yeah, Phantom Mage I believe is too slow for Modern & it's easy to dealt with be4 you could draw a single card with it... ...I also find the Bond Beetle a weak card & it's not worth playing.......

I believe that if you want to utilize Biovisionary, then you should focus more in him, use counters & Fog-like spells + more copy-stuff... ...or just leave it & rather focus on the Instant/Sorcery theme...

not just phantom mage, but all the cards you've built around it... ...the deck has to be overtaken almost entirely if you really want to win...

...by the way, yeah, I have almost all the cards I need for all my new decks now... ...I have every single one for this one & for a few more that's up here... :)

I like the simplicity of this deck, it looks fun & yet quite strong...

I'd use another Packleader & I'm not sure what Howlhenge does here, cuz it's completely filler material... ...Mold Shambler should be sideboard... ...How about a couple Rancor? Any version of Garruk? Though this is budget, so I got carried away... ...sorry!...... :)


Anyway, if you had the time, please check out some of my decks... ...I donno' how much you're in for standard, but my very reacent decks, as well as most of my decks are standard...

Here is my Mono-Green standard: http://www.mtgvault.com/poetmasterx/decks/nissa-hydra-breedmaster/

The Abzan Walker/Token/Midrange: http://www.mtgvault.com/poetmasterx/decks/solemn-superfriends-of-abzan/

Temur Midrange: http://www.mtgvault.com/poetmasterx/decks/revel-in-savagery/

...& the 4 color control one: http://www.mtgvault.com/poetmasterx/decks/perilous-wealth/


I believe these are my promising new decks & if you could give any feedback on any of these, I'd be glad, cuz I want to perfect them very soon...

Thanks!

Not a bad advise... ...I was thinking about something like that myself... ...guess I should test it out.......

Sagu is really good since it's a biggie with Hexproof & Wipes are not so strong these days...

Good to hear, but I think this is yet incomplete... ...thanks though! :)

Thanks, mate!

I see what you mean, but I've tested & 2 Boon Satyr is perfect... ...I also need the 3rd Broodmaster as well..

Seems a nice plan to me, but I doubt it'd win tournaments... ...besides, for Augur, the deck isn't stabil enough...

You need to either drop the Phantom Mage combo & run more Instant/Sorcery, or go another direction with it...

You're right about that... ...sometimes I need a wipe & so I cast Hostilities with Narset to survive & then play another Narset... ...but AEtherspouts is completely irrelavent with her, also Deflecting Palm & Dissolve(though I can still Scry)...

I honestly don't think that this is a competative deck type & I'm a bit disappointed in Jeskai, especially cuz it's my favorite 3-color combo... ...I'm planning on making a Mardu based control deck with a little spalsh of blue in it, playing Narset & lots of walkers that she could cast omong other things like Utter End, Hero's Downfall & such... :)

Perhaps, try it out, mate... ...see how you'd draw against competative decks of all kinds, you'll see that it works... ...though it's still incomplete... ...needs more testing.......

...though if only we still had Urban Evolution, I'd use it over Signs & 1 Bitter Revelation... ...then I'd even drop the Read the Bones & for the 2 remeaning space, I'd put in another Downfall & a Deadly Slice...

...if you look at the curve in this deck, do you think after a Scry-3, I could draw less than 4 cards? I always draw 4-7 cards with Signs, only a couple times I drew 3...

Dissolve's Scry ability here is almost irrelavent since I run 13 Scry-lands & many times I keep my top card & then if I cast Dissolve, I'd just look at the same card again... ...Dissipate would be more relavent, but I've already considered it & it's not needed... ...with a deck like this, you don't really need counters in the main deck, cuz many aggro decks are present in standard now & counters - especially if you run a high-curve control deck - are too slow... ...I run 3 Negates in the sideboard, perhaps I should run 4, but that's all I need.......

This deck is about drawing lots of cards, finding the lands fast, controlling the board, protecting yourself from discard effects by drawing even more cards, so Thoughtseize & such could not get you off your game... ...I play 3 Wealth in the main deck & 1 more in the sideboard, cuz against aggro decks, it's even worth to play it for 6-7, though 7 is fine against other type of decks as well... ...I usually cast it for about 9 though & it's easy to get there.......
