Hey, my specialties are land destruction (50 Shades of Mana-Screwed), vampires (Just for Shits n' Giggles, Immaculate Misconception) and unique tribal builds (10 points to Griffin Door!, The Dork Deck, All the Upkeeps. Ever.).

Snap157 thanks for the compliment! I don't play much Modern though.

I'm more of a filthy casual.

Hello there!

I'm already on there for elves, but I've changed my username, and I'd like for this list to reflect that as well. :) (emrakulinsmugglers)

Should I be upset that I was the first person to comment on the thing and he hasn't added me to infect and elves?

tlhunter07 says... #13

Aight @JexInfinite. If you do become more frequent, just tell me and I'll throw you up there.

I check in fairly regularly, and you could put me down for Jeskai Control and Lantern Control. I've been playing Jeskai for a long time now, and I've been studying Lantern since Zac Elsik showed the deck off for the first time, and have had it build for a couple of months now.

BrightNewEra says... #15

I've been playing jeskai control and mono blue tron for years now with pretty decent results against a good spread of other decks

Mill player, here. I have many mill decks on my profile and love to try and help each mill deck I come across. GeminiSpartanX and I have talked a few times.

TheSurgeon, do you consider Grindclock to be a good mill card? I recently purchased a playset from a 50c bin at my local game store and thought that a Fraying Sanity + Grindclock combo could become gradually devastating, but I haven't really tested it yet

August 15, 2017 6:21 p.m.

TheSurgeon says... #18

@flaminghome- Thanks for the good question!
Competitively speaking, I haven't found Grindclock to be modern usable.. yet. It definitely has its place in mill. I've never seen or considered a competitive deck running it. For the same price and speed, a Glimpse the Unthinkable, Breaking or Mind Sculpt would do much more all at once, without the threat of being removed.

This is heavily dependent on the cards you place with it though. Abilities that untap artifacts/permanents would enhance this card's function.

I'm currently messing around with a modern casual artifact-mill deck featuring Kurkesh, Onakke Ancient, Shriekhorn, Codex Shredder and some other cheap/free artifacts, but I haven't perfected the brew yet.

In short, yes. The card requires some finesse in use, but is playable in casual, and a possible deck in competitive if someone can find the key to unlock it's full potential. I'm sure there's an "infinite" Combo for untapping artifacts somewhere it can be coupled with.

These are just examples, it really depends on your meta and level of Modern play.

Have fun and play hard!

Flying Nuns has been my primary competitive Modern deck for just over a year now. I have played everything from Weekly Tournaments to GPTs. Its the deck I plan on taking to GP Hartford.

@darleen: Yeah, this seems good. To my knowledge though, this list has gone a bit stale even though I'm still moderating it.

December 27, 2017 7:51 p.m.

darleen says... #22

Ok, cool. Thanks for adding me to the list. Perhaps this list would get more views/action if there was a Featured forum post about it.

December 27, 2017 8 p.m.

tlhunter07 says... #23

There was, for a while. Most people talk on the Discord channel now, so the Modern Chat has also become irrelevant

Kcin says... #24
