An extreme budget deck for modern.
Heavy with control, control is not lasting, but seems to cope against all decks. Obviously there are counters to every deck including this one, but so far this deck holds up to all others I've played against.
I usually feel in control with this deck and it can be a lot of fun to play. Howl of the Horde can do wonders with the life gain, return creatures to hand/top of opponents library, or burning for 12. Jeskai Charm is a great card, perfect for this deck. Myth Realized though is really the heat of this deck, they get big very quick, and I often play several planar outbursts a game. Opponents usually waste their control spells on Reflector Mages. Awaken is great for late game and sometimes required to win.
You will take damage early playing this deck, but usually you keep holding on until you completely turn the tide. Playing this deck is much different than playing most decks, you actually want to be reactive and not proactive. You'll need to hold onto cards and save for when you really need them. For instance, don't return a 1/1 creature to your opponents hand, save it for a much larger creature.
I will consider looking at another counter spell, Mana Leak is kinda useless most of the time.
