I just want to play my favorite cards in modern and have it perform somewhat decently. That's all. Please leave constructive comments as I haven't playtested with it yet.

I need to figure out a counterspell suite. Yea I should probably do that.

To play discard, or not to play discard, that is the question. It's quite likely I want it for the Thopter/Sword decks but I feel like that's not where I want to be against opposing midrange.

Goal: Outvalue the GBX decks, outcontrol the Grixis & other UW decks, and try desperately not to die to Affinity/Infect as I go. If Tron is still a deck, I can accept a terrible matchup if I can be favored against the aforementioned.

RANDOM NOTES FROM PLAYTESTING:

Anguished Unmaking is overwhelmingly "meh"

Sphinx's Rev overperforms even in modern

Mana = Wonky. Mystic Gates are a blessing but I doubt going over two is a good idea. The single Swamp may not be needed since black is just about a splash but it hasn't been a problem and has been useful thus far.

Maybe you don't need the full 4 Finks and Souls
