White Weenies, now in higher quality. My first Modern deck, and trying to not break the bank. I'd love to hear your comments!
Puresteel Paladin: Draw engine, pseudo-exalted with free equipment reattach, and my favorite:
Bone Saw
draw for .
Squadron Hawk: Deck thinner. Chump blocker. Equipment carrier.
Steelshaper's Gift: Tutors for your techs, effectively playing like you have 5 copies of each one. These techs are...
Flayer Husk: For mid to late game post-wipe, or weird hands. Creatures win games...
and...
Horned Helm
: Early, easy trample when needed to close out early. Extra 1 toughness helps.
Kitesail Apprentice
&
Kor Duelist
: Quality, but cheap beats. is always playable. Needs equipment to function, but otherwise more chump blocking.
Bone Saw
& Bonesplitter: Cheap equipment for tempo. I chose Bone Saw over
Shuko
for its higher synergy with Puresteel.
Grafted Wargear: T3 Wargear makes my creatures scary, especially with their native bonuses.
T1>Kor Duelist. T2>Bonesplitter, equip, 3/1 Double Strike. T3>Wargear, equip, 6/3 double strike. 18 damage by turn 3 in the most ideal situation. Not the fastest Modern deck, but once a few pieces of equipment are out, it's hard to stop the waves of cheap creatures without some artifact hate. The more equipment I have out, the more likely I am to win.
Loxodon Warhammer: Trample breaks walls, and Lifelink is alright. A Duelist can easily push for the win with this. The to equip is tough without Puresteel's Metalcraft, but in a standoff when everyone's out of spells, it's not an issue.
Sideboard: Still working on perfecting my sideboard, so any suggestions are welcome!
Lightning Greaves: Haste wins games. Also for lethal post-wipe with a cheap creature and other equips as well as anti-Path.
Darksteel Axe
: Don't artifact hate, artifact love instead.
Wrath of God: Anti-Green? Anyways, I always feel safer with these in my board.
Auriok Glaivemaster
: Originally a 4x in maindeck, but chose to go evasion with Hawk and Kitesail. Great defensive tool when needed.
Knight of Meadowgrain: Survival kit against lots of artifact hate.
Whispersilk Cloak: Extra penetration to close games.
Godsend: Helps with Aura Hexproof.
