Now, to put this all into perspective; This deck is just a result of an obsession of mine, an obsession to make a modern pox deck for cheap. Now you are probably thinking; Are Kalitas and Lili cheap? And no, by no means are they cheap but I do own the 3 respective copies.This little obsession of mine has led me to try and test a plethora of MBC and pox decks, budget ones mind you. Out of all of these I have realized that this formula (Haakon Inversion) Is the best way to go should it suit your meta ofc. The reason being that these builds suffer the least from the lack of one of our key cards, that being Liliana.Should you venture off budget you would go for 4x lili, 3x urborg, some mutavaults and that might even be all.Cuts for these cards would be a matter of the meta but Necrogen Mists and Gatekeeper of Malakir are a start as they are basically half a lili each.
The idea is the same as with all pox decks; to rid your opponent of resources very efficiently and come out on top through a very slow, grindy playstyle. As far as the weird card choices go:Haakon Inversion is a combo that essentially gives you an endless mine from which to draw on lightning strikes. Haakon also makes Collective Brutality and Smallpox that much better.Necrogen Mists is doing a poor impression of liliana.Accursed Witch: This card is quite the surprise to must yet the incremental life-gain as well as life-loss do add up to a win condition that also gains us life, something that is very beneficial to a deck such as ours.Asylum Visitor is just a great card all around, a 3/1 is great for this deck, so is card advantage and so is madness.

I'd be potentially a bit worried about running out of cards, especially when the Meta is currently extremly grindy and doesn't mind trading resources, so maybe something like Night's Whisper/Sign in Blood. Sign in Blood is potentially better in my opinion as in those super grindy matches, finishing that last 2 life can be relevent

Hmm, well as far as those matchups are concerned there are a few factors to mention:1. Is it? I mean, is the meta grindy? The goldfish doesn't really say so and I am planning this for IRL play with my meta being a lot more creature focused with fish, eldrazi tron, coco, infect and such.2. The deck packs a lot of value cards and 2for1s which should make up for battling more grindy decks, although beating walkers shall forever remain a nightmare, for this reason it would be wise to go 3-4 Urborg and 4 Mutavault.3. I suppose I shall adjust the sideboard to that, thank you for the input, although different cards would be ones I'd play to make up for these matchups, simply drawing isn't that good, especially for this deck, I'd rather just play more necrogen mists.
I would have said the Death's Shadow decks are pretty grindy and when I was playing Tron it always tended to be super grindy!! From your meta is the accursed which a bit slow? Gifted Aetherborn might present something better purely because it comes down faster, gains the life and makes attacking very awkward for your opponent
Well the death's shadow decks seem quite manageable, our deck packs a lot more value, especially in the form of removal. And tron will find it hard should we hit a smallpox, that is a big "if" though, you are very much right about tron. Gifted Aetherborn is on the "playtest me" list, you are very correct to point out it's advantages, yet it does die to out 6 "pox" copies and leaves nothing behind. I shall test him for sure though.
