Main Deck (59 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

Yet another modern budget deck for under $100!! Goal is to get newer players, and players who feel modern is to expensive, into the Modern format. Modern has a huge card pool and is one of the funniest competitive formats to get into. Cards do not rotate out of modern, so a deck can be a long term investment rather than standard lasting 2 years at most.
this deck is designed to have playable cards that can be used in several decks in modern, with you saving and buying into the cards you need later. most the cards listed can be used in blue moon, splinter twin, UW control, delver, and america control.... Or you can run it as-is and just buy the sideboard to make it more powerful.

the sideboard is my save-for list

How to Play

This is a troll-control type of deck. you literally have an answer for everything, then board clears in the way of aetherspouts and devestation tide. jace and tamiyo let you dig for your win cons, which are master of waves and faerie conclave. couldnt think of any other good ones. advice is welcome!

Not bad... ...but I don't understand why you use Master of Waves when you barely run permanents...

i guess just for the fact of pro red so he doesnt die to bolts in modern... i just need like two creatures that stick, so i just counter things until they run out of steam, then drop a win and swing away. any ideas on a creature for mono blue that'll work well? for personal use i just run batterskull, but budget wise?

I like the addition of Moonring Island; it gives you a heads-up on whether or not you should save some mana for a counter. Voyage's End comes to mind as a possible addition, simply because scry could really help speed up the deck. Overall, I like it! +1

So I changed up the creature base quite a bit, I figured delver and the ninja were better clock/and have card advantage!
