This is my first tri color deck, and I need help making it better in modern! At its core, it's Abzan Rites, but it has stuff like Scavenging Ooze to deal with opposing graveyard plays and Tasigur, the Golden Fang to empty the cards we don't want from our own graveyard. It also runs stuff like Nissa, Voice of Zendikar for when we go wide and to just make math harder. It's goal is to be very resillient and still have pressure.

The Problem

From play testing it though is that it still seems kind of hit or miss. In a nutshell I want to eventually make this tier 2 viable, but without dropping thousands of dollars, and while having fun with it.

How You Can Help

What would be some good cards to fit into this kind of deck? Hornet Queen maybe? Do you think this has a chance at FNM, or even a tournament? Let me know what you think in the comments!

Any suggestion helps! And if you like it leave a +1 of your own! Thank you :)
