When you have infinite creatures, the combat step is more reliable than Massive Raid.

I see the utility, but the thing about Pestermite is that it has flash. Basically, it'll never be on the table when you want to cast Anger. It will only come onto the table during your opponent's end step right before you end the game. So, I get it, but . . . Anger's just so similar with a relatively large upside.

Anger eats fields. Melira Pod is so resilient against Supreme Verdict with a host of undying creatures and Voice of Resurgence. Anger exiles, meaning Scavenging Ooze has nothing to feed on. It's brutally better at 1RR than at 1GR for Firespout.

Why play firespout when Anger of The Gods is twice as good?

I guess Elvish Mystic for Fyndhorn elves and Chord of Calling for Green Sun's Zenith to make it Modern-legal; also, Nykthos kinda goes off with Omnath.

Yeah, Blightsteel is nearly strictly better than Darksteel.

Elvish Mystic over Dryad Militant. It can really help you can retardedly explosive starts.

Yeah, I would, but it's banned in Modern.

Eldrazi aren't artifacts; they're just colorless creatures.

Think he means Fist of Suns, which, if you are gonna play that, you need to mess with the mana base pretty good. Through the Breach is a good idea, though.

Ah, missed it. It's one of my favorite cards in all of Magic!

Roil is kind of worthless. You'd probably never hit four mana just hanging around. Echoing Truth does it better. If you're looking to bouncing Emrakul or Big Gris before the sac trigger, use Unsummon.

What's Concerted Effort here for? Double-Strike and Flying are about the only two. You can run Kinsbaile Cavalier instead.

I'm pretty sure this is Modern, not Tribal. I mean, it's a tribal-based deck, but it's not the actual MTGO format Tribal.

Couple of things: first, your sideboard can have a maximum of 15 cards. I'd recommend you remove the Flashfreezes. Second, an aggro deck like this can run out of steam, so I'd say run some Silvergill Adepts to keep the beats coming.

Nice! Maybe you want a full four Anger of the Gods, because so many cards you have (Swan Song, Curse of Swine, Rapid Hybridization) give your opponent tokens. If you don't want to get clobbered to death by those guys, the Angers will take out the tokens as well as most things in Standard.

He's got Nephalia Drownyard. The idea is that with Isochron Scepter and Angel's Grace or Dawn Charm, you will absolutely never lose. If you even +1 Jace once or activate Nephalia Drownyard once, you will win the game.

No, it ought to be one or the other. Bsically you have to weigh Path to Exile.
