I feel the deck is all around good, but thragtusk looks super awkward in an 18 land deck...
He would be better off as more counters or dismembers.

See the thing about goblin guide is sure you can give them lands etc, but when you dont give them lands they still reveal the card giving you knowledge on what they are holding.

You don't like the 1cmc 3 damage burn spell but will play 12-2cmc 3 damage burn spells and 4-1cmc 2 damage burn spells? I am so lost by that comment.

Rift bolt is hands down better than 16 cards in your deck at least...
I can kind of understand goblin guide, but it sees play in modern and legacy for a reason.

lol kk I was confused why you didnt like it:P its basically a delayed lightning bolt copies 5-8:P

You will lose to affinity game one more than likely(unless they keep a bad hand)
game two you need to hit some hate(damnation,creeping corrosion or Krosan Grip)

I really can't see how you can beat scapeshit besides turn 3-4 karn.

Modern you would have to change up a lot of the deck, I play a competitive modern 8-rack deck and this is my list atm:

Modern isn't an easy format every deck has its weaknesses, 8-rack excells at dismantaling and blue/x/x decks combo and blue tron.

pretty sure those 4 hymns should be in the main deck as they just ruin people.

Scapeshift will be a bad match up for you
yeah those decks seem 50/50 or better(the ones you have faced) Tron can always just suck though sometimes, sitting there with a hand full of 5+ drops and one tron piece is rough.

tolaria west lets you tutor for pacts if you don't happen to have one, or only have one they can pay for.

Yeah haha, wurmcoil isn't scary if you aren't actually killing it:p
You do know to kill their creatures in response to them casting twin on a creature right? not just kill their creatures as they come?

Well it is a fringe deck in modern, it isn't an unheard of thing.

Why not just run 2x darksteel ingot instead of oblisk?

Instead of running Pithing needle you should run 2x Stony silence(if you have affinity in the meta, It is also great vs U/W or Mono U tron.)

I would also run 2-3 Ghost quarters to help vs tron and UWR.

I don't know if you have been using this as a reference but i find you get a lot of useful info/testing info out of reading the posts from Salvation.
You get to see how the deck evolves and what its worst match ups are.

Do you know what your meta looks like? or just going in blind?

They aren't that expensive, just trying to help out have you tested with it or are you just going off what I am saying.

nope, if you have an ornithopter or a raptor in play with a generator servant you can cast a turn 3 hasty engine
Also it can be used to shrapnel or ensoul.

Well to be fair they can counter it off cascade also, and if you draw 2/3 on cycling you should cast a living end tutor:P
