The one great joy of my current modern deck Strange Utopia is it's ability to make opponents go on tilt. In light of that, I thought I'd make an actual competitive Modern deck to go with it.

Hatebears seemed fun; by fun, I mean annoying to the other player.

Right now, trying to see if I can make Abzan Bears work (mostly for Siege Rhino, but also Lingering Souls and Abrupt Decay); might go Selesnya if it doesn't seem to have the mana base.

Not built Hatebears before; any suggestions would be very welcome!
