Deck Description

Had this idea in my head for a long time, now I finally got around to it.
NOTE: Is there a 4 mana draw 3 at sorcery speed in blue!?

Shit worth talking about:
Molten Rain, Roiling Terrain, Seismic Spike, Melt Terrain and Stone Rain: are the mtg form of bullying, that's why no more 3 mana destroy a land cards are printed.

Keranos, God of Storms: when they have NO LANDS AT ALL you can just sit back, draw more land destruction and throw lightning bolts around like they're nothing(cuz they are free)

Magnivore: a 5/5 on average, it's here cause it's a pretty good finisher. The same goes for Shivan Wumpus.

Yes you need Keranos and yes as a 3 of! He is simply the last drop and the breaking point that makes people kill themselves or, in the less likely outcome, concede. He wins games othereise lost and gives you a chance if the ld plan doesn't go as planned. And what would you run othereise? Draw? That doesn't win the game! Threats? They won't draw you cards so well. More ld? WHY?

How to Play

NOTE: This deck is OP and unfair and will kick the crap out of the likes of 20 lands efficient modern decks, the same goes for control, anything slow, rdw, anything with 18 lands, anything that runs enough lands to hit 4 and no more lands. The best thing is that NOBODY expects this, even if they do, what are they gonna do? sb lands?
Mana Leak is broken here, just BROKEN
So, you start by wrecking their lands, once you hit turn 5 you want a Seismic Spike into a Molten Rain or Stone Rain, this ENSURES that you win, that is 3 lands dead at least, and if you consider the number of destruction cards left in your deck and the 6/6s and 5/5s that are about to kill them you really win if you get this combo. If you don't you are in for a "fair" game.
You want to play the deck as a control deck that annoys the crap out of your oponents, kill lands play threats, remove their board, counter spells.
The only bad matchup is ramp, you just die there, also a Worm Harvest deck is pretty strong vs this.
WARNING: Nobody wants to play against this, it will break friendships and end up on a shelf and never be used again!!!

YOU WERE WARNED!!!

My budget decks are supposed to let you have fun! Which is what i think MtG should be about, i try to make these decks as competitive as possible while still leting you to have a blast while playing them. If you can make your friends to spend around 50$ you could buy 2-4(some of my decks are under 10$) of my decks and make the experience even richer! Also don't just copy the whole deck(you can, but if you can improve something DO IT!), if you have a better idea pls let me know, i can't always make the perfect deck and sideboard. Again GL and HF!

Why not just use Counterspell instead of mana leak?

Because I want it modern, also double blue is hard to hit in a deck where you need double red on turn 3.
And most of all I think that making a deck not legal in a format just because of 1 card is kinda stupid.
