Myth Realized needs to be a 4 of. It's like AEther Vial. Also, Batwing Brume, Seeker of the Way and Monastery Mentor. You need some more beaters, and you actually fold to RDW's because you don't have things to prevent non-combat damage. I also suggest you remove Shred Memory and Elixir of Immortality as they don't work to well in modern.

Femme_Fatale - Thanks for the suggestions :) I am hesitant to run any creatures because of my DoJ. Should I just drop Day of Judgement?!?!?!! and add some more creatures? Also, I have Leyline of Sanctity in the sb for burn. I may try upping the number to 3... but that pricetag..... ;(
My problem with Seeker of the Way is that I don't cast many of my spells on my turn. Also, Elixir of Immortality allows me to deck out my opponent. I will drop it to one. I've really liked it but I might drop it over time. Shred Memory has helped me a lot. It is an uncounterable search that tutors most of my important cards. I will drop it down to 2 but I really like it.
Do you have any suggestions on what to do vs. burn.

@Femme_Fatale - How does Batwing Brume interact with Isochron Scepter? I'm assuming brume does nothing and that imprinting it is useless.

It's called Splinter Twin. Also, zoo, merfolk and affinity. You could literally kill a person with Batwing Brumes alone. Don't let the Isochron Scepter thing fool you, because Stony Silence, Suppression Field and Abrupt Decay will make your life miserable.

I know the powers of the brume (I really hope you pronounce it like broom like me because that sentence sounds funny :3). Do you have any suggestions on how to deal with that artifact hate?

Against burn you've got Kor Firewalker.

Try these cards for sideboard:

I'm tempted to have you go blue for things like Remand and Cryptic Command (which is a fog as well) and Esper Charm, which doubles as the removal for Stony Silence and draw spells. Not too mention Negate, Spell Pierce and Mana Leak can help you out.

If going blue, here are some more cards:

Thanks a ton Femme_Fatale. I may go esper some day but I don't want to blow a ton of money on this deck until I know I like it :D

You can't stop Abrupt Decay, but you can board in some enchantment hate. Things like Disenchant, Demystify, & Mortify to just name a few.

Lol Femme_Fatale, i was thinking red

Protection grant spells do "counter" Abrupt Decay, yes. I would prefer Gods Willing however, because of the scry, which is important in turbo fog.

Gods Willing doesn't protect my scepter :)

Femme_Fatale says... #13

True dat.

addaff says... #14

Yes, it would prevent abrupt decay from doing is thing. Sorry about that. I had blue on my mind when i wrote that. I see you raised the number of Silences, good man

Thanks a ton by the way :D

@addaff - Pls don't Spell Snare my scepter xDD Silence is great.

If you ever need to return the scepter back to your hand Ritual of Restoration or Mine Excavation (for enchantments as well) is your best option.

Nef says... #18

Hmm interesting. I will consider it :D thanks

The problem with returning Isochron Scepter to your hand is that you now have a wasted exiled card. And potentially two more after that.

Nef says... #20

Very true. I will probably go the protect the artifact route. The return to hand might help vs discard tho.

April 6, 2015 10:17 p.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #21

I mean, as a 2 of, Mine Excavation is definitely a good choice, don't get me wrong. Just be wary of using it.

addaff says... #22

I definitely wasn't suggesting it main board over protection, but more of a side board option. If you can, i would bump the leyline up to 3

Nef says... #23

Yeah for sure. Thank you!

April 6, 2015 10:25 p.m.

Nef says... #24

I will bump up leyline over time... 30 dollas is a lots of moneys
