Built on the basic shell of Legacy Dragon Stompy decks, the idea is to make it REALLY hard for you opponent to cast spells while you beat them in the face with your creatures. I don't know a ton about the modern meta-game, but I have done some digging and I think this will do well against the major decks right now. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I'm always open to hear it, also if you are a modern expert, and want to use that knowledge to theory out some match-ups, I would love to hear what you think.

Edit: Thanks to bmbinder for suggesting replacements (Rule of Law and Hero of Oxid Ridge ), also had to change the mana base to accommodate white. It means I don't play many basics, but if all of them become basics? Who cares!

I took out anything that said "hellbent," it works really well in the legacy version, but its much harder to get to 0 cards in hand in Modern. Also dropped a few cards down to 3 to make room for some more variety to make certain match-ups better (I'm looking at you Affinity!)
