Np, I don't exactly have much experiance playing the deck, but I have faced ones like it and its similar to most Vial-Lord decks.
You should keep the tally of what your record is vs each deck, it'll help you know which are your worst matches(I know you have an idea of which ones are but it'll help you know which are worse than the others and how to adapt accordingly.)

I mainly just have a few Waste Not brews going on.

Some in a Monoblack 8-Rack deck(my modern deck)
Others in G/B Waste not/Loam lists.

I really hope they add some good flicker effects so that we can abuse these morph creatures in khans.

they're banned because they made it too easy for storm to go off turn 2 and a forsure win turn 3.

Juzam Djinn is on the reserved list, I will put it as a functional reprint, they do print cards like it still though, herald of torment is the most recent reprint.

Angus Mackenzie is also on the reserved list:P, who knows he may see a reprint in commander product one year?:P

lol sorry I just thought it was 4 before:P

Oh ok, I was just wondering why you would play heliod main over her, but now I am assuming it is so you can block also.

This is the list I'm working on that would rock crop rotation if it was ever printed in modern. Still a huge work in progress, but the gameplan is pretty clear.

Tribal is pretty weak in standard normally, besides when tribal blocks are around. I feel this would see 0 play in standard without a tribal block, but could lead to some fun modern decks modern cheerios could get interesting.

Depending on when you activate it a second time.
If you go:
Activate Yisan
Untap in response to his trigger
Activate him again
Because putting a verse counter on him is part of the activation effect you would actually get to fetch two 2 CMC creatures instead of a 1 and a 2CMC creature if you let the first trigger resolve before activating the second.

Prohibit- would be a nice 2 CMC counter, could replace leak in most match ups even.
Opt- Sleight of Hand is basically the exact same card, besides the fact that it doesn't proc(when you draw effects)
Price of Progress- I'm fine with burn getting some more tools as I play 4x Leylines:P, might be too strong but who knows, if it is could always warrent a ban.
Sylvan Library- I feel there would be no way they would ever print this in modern, that being said functional reprint... maybe.
Shardless Agent- Shardless Bug in modern could be cool, the likely hook of this happening with how BBE is banned in modern makes me feel this is unlikely. That being said you can't cascade into a Lily of the V with this thing making it maybe a bit more balanced.
Crop Rotation- I really don't know if R/G tron or G/x tron really needs an extra push, though i guess it would also be great vs tron in loam builds so maybe it would be fine?
Noble Hierarch- Fuck i know right? I doubt it'll see a reprint outside of modern masters 2.0
Divert- I completely forgot this card existed lol, I would like this, or even something like "1U or UU Exile target spell."
Oblation- I feel B/W tokens and Deadguy's ale would love this card haha.

Overall your list seems very well thought out and mostly would work in modern, I still think price and library may be pushing it, but you never know with power creep.

Well old mechanics get reprinted all the time in new sets/blocks, for example Morph is back in Khans block.
I in no way mean these will be printed in the next year, just cards that would be cool to see a reprint on.

As for Hymn and Visions:
Hymn I mainly put it because I would love for it to be printed in "modern masters" not standard meaning set flavour doesn't really matter too much in terms of what came from what plane.
Visions well 1 CMC cantrips get created all the time, its not hard for them to just change the name with a similar effect.

I feel with dimir just passing and the printing of (Breaking // Entering) albiet worse than glimpse, sadly this may be a while off from a reprint. though we could always get a mono U version of it?

I feel that sinkhole wont ever see a reprint as wizards has said many times they want to stay away from cheap land destruction because it makes newer players not want to play.

And yeah, I want smallpox and waste not in standard at the same time.

I feel without dark ritual in modern(and it should never ever be in modern) entomb wouldn't be too bad, I feel this is all fair, I mean animate dead dies to decay while the creature it animates dies to most not burn removal. Seems fair to me.

Yes and no, if they choose to use it back at you you can then use it again, but that would never be smart:p

Hierarch might be in the next modern masters, besides that cant see anything like that being printed until the next set with exalted.
