U/B has always been my favorite colors and this deck looks really cool and unique. Definitely worth a +1. As for suggestions I can throw out a few but honestly you're deck already looks pretty awesome to me. Surgical Extraction would be the first thing that comes to mind for me. There is a rogue card that lets you search and exile from libraries when u pay its prowl cost but u don't really have any other rogues to proc the prowl so probly not a good choice. Maybe Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver or Nightveil Specter? I would have to look stuff up to give you better suggestions but off the too of my head that's all I can think of :)

Kringo thanks for the +1, Surgical Extraction odds defiantly a must have, I opted for Extirpate because of the splitsecond ability but after the first play it loses it's use. Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver and Nightveil Specter were actually both in here originally but I found they mucked with the targeted removals I was trying to make. Any advice on what I should drop for the surgical extractions?

Maybe take just one of some of the cards u have a full playset of out like Redirect and Cackling Counterpart to make room for 2 or 3 Surgical Extraction honestly I'm not a huge fan of either of those but that's just personal preference. And even more honestly I think surgical extraction is worth running a full play set of but I've never play tested this deck so I don't really have a good suggestion as to what you should take out for it :/

I could probably drop a few Redirect, they weren't as handy as I originally thought they would be. Cackling Counterpart has been a godsend on more than just one occasion though, I'll likely drop it when I can afford a better 3 drop clone but until then I'll need them.

What do you think of dropping Haunting Echoes into the side board and 2Redirect for Surgical Extraction? Haunting Echoes hasn't really been any use so far, opponents rarely get to play enough to get a good graveyard.

Yeah that sounds perfect actually. Haunting Echoes is good but in my opinion only in mill decks can it be utilized properly. And like I said I'm not a huge fan of Redirect. You have Rune Snag anyways which seems like it would be much more consistantly useful. As for the clone maybe Evil Twin? It costs an extra mana but it's the best clone I can think of off the top of my head. There's always Lazav, Dimir Mastermind as well but again that's not a 3 drop and if you're trying to exile directly from the library then he's probly not a great choice

I was just flipping through surgical extraction comments and spotted this. Your just mean lol

KanisxKoda I will take that as a complement xD

Kringo yeah right now my options for another clone would be Evil Twin or Phyrexian Metamorph. Though I might keep a few counterparts in the side board, the flashback is marginally handy.

Haha I gotta be honest I completely forgot it had a flashback on it. In that case it might actually be your best choice

Lol that was the deciding factor over Clone, problem is I tend to draw them the turn all my creatures die.

I'm gonna be brutally honest here, but I'm gonna try and stay constructive.

This deck list, for competitive Modern, is very bad.

I'll try and rundown why:

You have no deck of your own. This deck can only, at best, hinder the opponent. Slow them down. Even if they're slowed to a near standstill, you don't have anything to win the game for yourself. On top of that, a lot of your card choices are really really subpar. Cackling Counterpart is mediocre at the best of times, but you have almost no creatures. More often than not you'll have nothing to copy in the first place. Cards like Haunting Echoes and even Counterbore are so much mana they're almost unusable in most real matchups.

If you want to go this direction, I would suggest just going with a Grixis shell and include maybe 2 mainboard Slaughter Games and some Surgical Extraction/Thoughtseize stuff. The fact is this strategy can only be a supporting thing, it isn't a whole deck.

Sorry if it sounds like I'm just raining on your parade, but I want to help you get this to a working point.

yeah i actually agree on Counterbore and Haunting Echoes. im not a huge fan of pretty much any counter spell that costs more than 2 mana, 3 at the absolute most. Haunting Echoes i think is more for mill decks. i use one in my mill deck for emergencies but even then its pretty much a sideboard exclusive card for certain matchups. like if im facing a deck that pulls from the graveyard or uses Laboratory Maniac or something like that. if you're exiling most of the cards before they even hit the graveyard anyways then there isnt much of a point to it.

Jay actually you've pretty much called out most of the problems I've run into so far. When the deck runs at its best it leaves them with only land in their deck and I have to peck them with 2/2's and hope they give up. Counterbore was originally dropped into the mix because I felt light on later game counter (this deck makes games long) bit I've never even used it. Haunting Echoes I've got to play one but it was against a really slow self mill. Other than that it's a dead draw. I am testing 4x fogbank and it holds a lot better against agro but it's still missing something.

What would you suggest in their places?

This is so far from being competitive it makes me cringe.

Also 63 cards?!??!!! WTH?!?!?

Actually it was 61 earlier before I edited it, I'll figure out what I mucked up when I get home. Also, while it has some kinks, it actually does an OK job in modern as is. Otherwise I wouldn't have posted it.

Wow, this deck looks disgutingly beautiful.

Not something, I would play with my 'still' friends, but something I would take to the game shop and try to destroy peoples evening.

Only thing that is in my opinon more frustrating than to deny a decks nice things, would be playing Villainous Wealth and playing their nice things yourself.

+1'ed

Edit.: Just for record, normally I am the whitest white player, you will ever meet. :P

LordDerrien glad to hear it, this deck came a long way to get here. I haven't taken it to shop yet but it's become quite notorious in the local casual seen. I actually considered Villainous Wealth at one time bet I couldn't handle spacing the green. It would be nice though, this deck doesn't pack any hard hitters.

Postmortal_Pop If it is notorious, you did great work. Thinking about building it myself at the moment, but Villainous Wealth deck already fills that stop should the need arise for somthing of that kind.

I would really not recommend Villainous Wealth for this deck tough. You are right, green might be just to much and I think you should not part to far from your initial plan for the game.

I also noticed that you play 24 lands while your mana curve is actually extremly low. Maybe 22-23 would do it, too. On the other side, hitting four mana could be quite important for Shimian Specter and Memoricide, so take my thoughts with a grain of salt.

LordDerrien I might take your word on the land, while hitting 4 mana is important it isn't important early on in the game and the entire strategy is to slow the game down. I might drop some just to get else to an even 60

Why run Echoing Truth? You want targets in the graveyard - maybe Thoughtseize? Maybe creature removal? More counterspells?

I'm wondering why no Thoughtseize or Inquisition of Kozilek too. They're pretty useful, and work well with Extirpate.

Also, a fun counterspell is Perplex. Not the most efficient spell, but it always confuses people.

Thoughtseize and Inquisition of Kozilek could skyrocket the cost of this deck. At least I know that i would think thrice before buying a playset of both.

Echoing Truth is also a very nice token destroyer.

You can budget stuff like Duress, Despise, and Raven's Crime as well. And if you're worried about tokens and weenies, run Drown in Sorrow.

While these cards all have good synergy graveyard targeting Extraction they don't work nearly as well as the Lantern does when it comes to landing cards in the grave. I've actually ran Thoughtseize in this deck and found it just lacking. As for Echoing Truth I picked it for a few reasons, firstly it bounces nonland permanents so enchantment/artifact cards are gone. Secondly it bounces by name so creatures tokens are gone. Thirdly it deals with fast play creatures all at once. For its cost it gives me much more is than many other allowed.

Also, is worth noting that this isn't actually a budget deck, it's simply cheap because nobody plays any of these cards.

This needs Nephalia Drownyard. I also think you're too heavy on creatures for a deck like this.
