One way or another!

Modern* Budget

ArabsCamel


New to magic and new to this site. This is one of my first decks that I have made and it has so far done fairly well against the friends that I am playing. I have no sideboard yet because I have not quite gotten the hang of sideboarding yet. Any help to make this deck any better or sideboard options will all be greatly appreciated. I have also placed this in the budget section because my foil cards and zendikar lands can easily be replaced with a much cheaper option. Overall after looking at pricings, this deck can be made for around $20.00.

With the right draw this deck can win on turn 3 with a mana drop on turn one, turn two mana drop and goblin electromancer, turn three mana drop, young pyromancer, battle hymn, krenkos command, another battle hymn, and into a burn at the stake.

Since the first win condition is unlikely on the draw this deck also has the zephyr scribe, retraction helix, spidersilk and elusive spellfist infinite damage combo for a surprise in mid game. All creatures are quickly played by low mana costs and tokens add up to be abundant quickly for a good defense. Flame slash is helpful for the bigger nasties and retraction helix can be used not only in the combo but as a way to buy time to burn at the stake for a ton of damage and sneak in with elusive spellfist for a quick hit and not have a creature able to attack you on the turn after. Tolaria west was added because it makes for either an island or another means to gain spidersilk net without much disruption from gameplay. From playtests and playing friends this deck averages wins around turn 6.

Hope you all enjoy and thanks for all the future help I might receive!
