I like it.

Lantern is like

The best deck in modern man~

Looks pretty solid. Basically same build Elsik took to GP last year.

It's a good build. I played it at my LGS FNM for a while. Did quite well. Have you played this version competitively yet? MB Surgical Extraction is a must. You got that covered..

Not sure about the Sea Gate Wreckage it will be interesting to see if that helps. I would swap out Gemstone Mine & City of Brass for 4x Glimmervoid (unless it's for budget reasons) as you will take time to stabilize your lock out and that brass could lose you games, I think.

Good luck at GP

Won't lie, I primarily based my list on Zac Elsik's build. I've been popping in and out of the mtgsalvation forums and I liked his list the most. Currently testing a fun of Tezzeret and trying out quiet disrepair since I think white enchantments are more important than more hate for Chalice.

I'll be picking the Voids ASAP, right now using Brass for synergy with Sun Droplet.

Any thoughts for the new meta? I've only really played at FNM and the last GP Charlotte with a different deck.

Thank you for commenting!

ExisPsycho. Granted every meta is going to be different. I have seen an influx of Tezz decks using Sword of the Meek+Thopter Foundry both paper and MTGO. There's still a decent number of affinity decks running around. Control with Cryptic Command and variants.

Stony Silence is great SB against both artifact decks, anything anti- at this point is not a bad idea eg: Choke or something.

Mardu is coming in hot with the downfall of JUND.

Alright

The reason I ask is because I'm kind of curious how I should approach sideboarding with the types of decks in mind.

To be perfectly honest I don't really mind going against something like the Thopter/Sword combo since my wincon doesn't involve their life total the majority of the time. If people are running the Time Sieve infinite turn combo that would change how i see it but right now I think i'm good.

Ancestral Vision could be an issue, but overall I think the Ux matchup should still be fine. I still get under most of the counterspells being run in modern. Plus Academy Ruins makes things easier. However, White Enchantments are annoying...

Affinity, haven't played against it. I've seen the matchup tho. Pithing Needle and Bridge are really good.

Honestly, I'm slightly terrified of the Mardu matchup. Turn 1 discard, burn, Stony Silence, Leyline of Sanctity, and Kolaghan's Command. Lord

I would suggest for SB:-1 Sun Droplet, -1 Welding Jar (you have 2x Academy Ruins) & Add in 2x Stony Silence

-2 Quiet Disrepair +2 Wear / Tear (instant speed < sorcery speed).

Burn can be a tough match-up and I see a lot less tokens maybe swap out the Pyroclasm for Leyline of Sanctity

It's tough because SB has to accentuate your play style too. But that would be my current recommendations. You can essentially produce any color mana so your options are limitless. Just stay within that 0-3cmc curve as best you can.

Oh and hard removal. Eldrazi isn't completely dead. Consider Terminate or Path to Exile

I can't run Stony Silence

The issue is it turns off my decks engine. In fact it's commonly brought in to kill my deck.

Might think about Wear/Tear. The fact it kills Chalice is relevant.

With Leyline I'm either running it or Sun Droplet. I run pyroclasm for all aggro decks including Affinity, Burn, or just anything with small annoying guys.

Not interested in spot removal. Lantern typically doesn't have to concern itself with it because of bridge. I do run pyretic spell bomb as spot removal for small stuff, but it has other forms of utility in the deck. Plus, Eldrazi was a good matchup ;)

Oh yeah sorry, that was a brain Fart moment on the stony silence. That's what I get for trying to study for med school finals and deck help at the same time. Sounds like you have a good handle on things. Just get as much practice piloting the deck and you'll be golden.

Kk

Thank you for bouncing ideas with me

Good luck with the finals
