I have a UWR control deck, Blade Splicer and Geist of Saint Traft work pretty well, as well as the popular Remand . Often you can't survive without board wipes (Supreme Verdict ). I run 4 Path to Exile s, and only 2 Electrolyze s, althoguht those are only slight changes. I play cockatrice and I see quite a lot of this kind of deck actually, I think it's still pretty solid

Yeah thats a different archtype though UWR midrange, I like this. I mean there are varying versions of both decks but this is a fairly good hybrid and that is fairly good as well. I just dont like path because the presence of mana leak in this deck.

Ghostly Prison ?

I run a UWR Tempo deck that's pretty different than some of the others, but ti's been working well for me.

Find Magma Jet helps set my draws nicely too--if you find Electrolyze to cloggy. That said, I run a bit more aggro-style deck and have less land to play Electrolyze ...

I'm also a big fan of Path to Exile and Remand as miloguy mentioned.

Oh yea, +1.

yeah its just midrange or control and none of those are particulalry interesting I just like the control better. Ill try them. Remand isn't as good in this deck as it is in midrange. I'd rather run the full 4 cryptics. Ghostly prison is very interesting. I want to try it. Thanks for the suggestions

No worries.

Needs moar board wipes!! Supreme Verdict should be a 4 of, it's just too important to skip over in this type of deck.

And remove what in here? BTW already have 4 boardwipes in the deck.

WHY WOULD YOU RUN Rest in Peace SIDEBOARD!

because when I bring it in snapcasters go out.

NEVER TAKE SNAPCASTERS OUT

even against BG(x) decks that eat all relavent targets with scooze and deathrite shaman and make snapcaster a very scary bear.

Love this archetype. I'd suggest running Ajani Vengeant in tandem with Gideon Jura as the lockdown into lando is a game winner. Also the mainboard Batterskull is sick, I ran it main in my deck too and loved it.

Thank you, I have tried the ajani before, never in tandem with gideon, but it wasnt that great for me. I ussually play it and it dies quickly where gideon does a lot of work all by himself.

I'd run some combo of Mana Leak and Remand

Yeah I have considered that but remand doesn't do a whole lot in this deck and leak is often just a better card for this deck anyways.

What's the point of Firespout?

yes an oddity :) I am playing around with it as a three damage sweeper. A number good for zoo.

Ima very enthusiastic Modern player, unfortunately Im not as skilled as enthusiastic so I would appreciate your comments on 5 aspects of this archtype.

1.- Regarding Firespout , woulnt do a better job Volcanic Fallout since it is an instant? Or, if the 3 damage are so relevant vs 2, Anger of the Gods ?

2.- Thundermaw Hellkite . Is it really necessary? What about Vendilion Clique instead?

3.- Why not trying Vapor Snag or Saving Grasp ? Its a nice combat trick,and gives reuse to Snapcaster Mage ?

4.- Tectonic Edge vs Ghost Quarter vs Encroaching Wastes . Pros, Cons?

5.- I would really appreciate some thoughts on Think Twice , IMHO, it becomes card advantage untill the flashback,and on that point, I could get the actual spell since the beggining. Please educate me about it.

Thank you very much.

For the purposes of this reailze that I haven't updated on my current list in many months and was tinkering post ban of DRS so the first 2 points you are correct

2) I love clique 1-2 is good somewhere in the 75

3) No, they are tempo cards and not control cards.

4) its really a contest between tec edge and ghost quarter. I'd say tec edge is slightly better but its up to personal choice. Definatly run at least 2 of these because things like manlands and Gavony Township running around.

5) -its instant speed

-good on turn 2-3 if the opponent does nothing.

-best you have for this kind of deck in modern.

Well TY! Im not THAT lost then.

Vendilion Clique main?

regarding tec edge-GQ, a split 2/1?

Think Twice , 2 off, 3 off?

Khans of Tarkir fetches bro! Flooded Strand ALL DA WAY!

when I get around back to this archetype, not going to happen anytime soon as I am loving/playing tarmotwin but duley noted

ok so you have some problems with this deck. 1 if your control you never run any less than 4 Tectonic Edge's2 you don't run 3 spell snares maybe 2 but never 3 it's just way to conditional in the format3 two different types of board wipes I'm not crazy about but it could work, but don't run two in the side if you have 2 in the main only one in the side4 you want to run v clique in the main board take out on of the spell snares to put him in. 5 2 stony silences in the side not one. There are lots of reasons to do so: 1 it's very effective against affinity 2 works to shut pod down as well 3 shuts down your opponent from using Relic of Progenitus and also other cards like it, so it has lots of uses.6 get rid of the maybe board entirely and add a second Thundermaw Hellkite to the side.7 for another one drop to change out the other spell snare for is another dispel, they work a lot better than spell snare as half the cards anyone will be playing are instants.

that's all I'm gonna say there could be other tweaks that could be made but it really depends on the player.

-1 Think Twice, +1 Dig Through Time. -2 Sphinx's Revelation, +2 Dig Through Time. You could also use Treasure Cruise, but instant speed helps a lot in RWU.

Why Gideon Jura over Elspeth, Knight-Errant?
