Wrath of God seems a bit less good when you're on the Thrun, the Last Troll plan you might be better off with Anger of the Gods since most of your creatures dodge it and it kills most things played in modern.

that's true, you probably have a good point there. The other option was just running Day of Judgment so I could still regen.

I don't know that much, but maybe Voice of Resurgence ?

I did consider voice actually haha but I decided to have the more control in the lower mana slots. I finally got all the cards this week and will be playtesting, but I'll be keeping it in mind, thanks =)

Maybe drop Oblivion Ring down to a 1 of? It's a good catch all but it's slots can be used elsewhere. If I was building this deck and wanted to play a hard control deck, I'd get rid of the 3 Hero of Bladehold , drop Oblivion Ring down to 1 or 2, then add a playset of Voice of Resurgence as this shuts off or drastically lowers the value opponents instants, and then add 1 Gideon Jura because his fog ability and 6/6 is a game finisher. I guess then up another walker's number or keep O-Ring at 2. But that's just me!

my problem with voice is that though it is a good card, it is also countered by spell snare, which is played at my store in a few decks. The 0-rings are a definite keep because they do more than I'd ever believe. The hero is a possibility to remove, she happens to be one of my favorite cards and that's why I have her here, she doesn't even fit the whole uncounterable theme. I may lower her to 2 and put in a gideon. Like I told the last guy, my cards are coming this week and I"ll be playtesting it for the next month to see. Gideon would be nice for the fact that if I have him and sarkhan, I can boardwipe and swing with both, but I don't know yet. One step at a time, but I will be keeping it updated here =). Thanks for taking the time and who knows what I may use of your suggestions :o

Stirring Wildwood and Treetop Village are also good manlands. If you're looking to drop creatures have you considered the commands cycle? Primal Command maybe.

yeah, I do like treetop, I even own a couple, it's just that idk where to hide them in my land base =/. Primal command I tried running once and just couldn't find a place. Wildwood would probably be best because it's also dual mana, thinking of replacing 1 temple garden with it but idk. Thanks for the suggestions =).

Gideon, Champion of Justice is a very sub par card, highly recommend replacing him or running Gideon Jura instead. Having a +1 that does nothing, especially in modern is not good value.

Also, mana base if you want man lands:

1 Plains

1 Forest

1 Mountain

2 Treetop Village

4 Wooded Foothills

4 Windswept Heath

2 Sacred Foundry

2 Temple Garden

2 Stomping Ground

2 Raging Ravine

2 Stirring Wildwood

yeah, don't worry, the gideon is getting replaced with a 2nd Elspeth, Knight-Errant =) 8 fetches isn't happening, I mean you're leaving one more target than fetch there. But I do agree with most of that land base, probably very good with me running the Day of Judgment s
