The Creatures

Tasigur, the Golden Fang

The black 'Goyf that draws cards and can cost 1 mana. The fact that it's legendary is the only drawback. Finisher.

Snapcaster Mage

Arguably the best blue card in Modern. Extra copies of any spell of the deck.

Gurmag Angler

5/5 for cheap. Almost always good. Black 'Goyf number 2.

The Spells

Lightning Bolt

One of the best red cards in the format, possibly the entire game. Kills stuff or goes to the face.

Serum Visions

This is the best Modern has to offer in terms of cantrips.

Cryptic Command

The blue Swiss army knife.

Thought Scour

Gets stuff in the yard for Tasigur and Angler, and it cantrips.

Terminate

Kills anything for .

Electrolyze

Burns the opponent, kills creatures, and draws cards. It's always card advantage, which is want this deck wants.

Kolaghan's Command

Everytime this card is cast, it's a 2-for-1. Two damage kills a lot things, returning a dude is always good, there are a lot of artifacts in modern, and discard is usually good. It gets even better when flashed back with Snapcaster.

Mana Leak

It's really good in the early game, but looses a lot of value in the late game. 3-of because it's legit.

Remand

Not the best for control, but it can act as a time walk. Cantrips. 2-of at most.

Dispell

Instants are popular, and this counters all of them.

Dismember

It kills things wiht power 5 or less for 3, 2, or 1 mana
