A tempo deck that revolves around getting off splinter twin. Uses tempo cards like Vendillion Clique, remand, and snap caster mage to delay enemy advances until the combo can be pulled off. In some cases the deck may try to win simply by burning an opponent out and hitting them for bits of damage each turn while countering or delaying their spells with remand and the like. This decklist is very similar and inspired by that used by Patrick Dickman in Grand Prix Antwerp. Though normaly I dislike the idea of net decking, this is my first combo deck and first modern deck, so I figured I would go with a proven winner and then modify as I learn to understand it more.
