This is a modern variant of the standard aristocrats deck. It runs sac outlets and benefits for sacrificing creatures left and right. Its a prototype right now but I will be updating it regularly.

WARNING: This is a BUDGET modern deck. Hence why it doesn't include any fetches.

If you played Aristocrats in Standard or Modern please give me some help. I know the deck is rough, I took parts from some other janky modern Aristocrats decks and put my own stuff into it. Its mostly a human build, but I am open to doing something different with it. It needs to be fast and versatile to be effective in modern.

I was running 21 lands but in the gold fishes I ran it wasnt working. Also more white sources are needed. A number of times I would draw BR lands and need white on turn 1-2. So I changed up the land base a little. BW is needed most and R is only needed for Falkenrath Aristocrats at this time. I have thought about including Brimstone Volley instead of some of the kill spells to give the deck more reach, but I dont know if that will just add more inconsistency since it makes the land requirements even harder to achieve. I can't include fetches atm. Not in the budget. Most of these cards I already have, if not all of them. Thats kind of why I'm trying to go with this Modern Aristocrats build.

Is this deck better than Modern Burn or Modern Infect? Let me know what you think.
