You should have a sideboard card to kill Suppression Field, it is a common hate card for Twin. I know a few people who use it (and I use it too, here's an example: The 11th Plague of the Multiverse . I love Twin though, I just think it is an easy to kill deck with a sideboard.
Nice deck!

Really really like this deck it looks like so much fun. My only suggestions would be giving a look at Impact Tremors as it could prove really sweet and Return to the Ranks for the recovery and blowout wins.

Hi ChairmanMeows and thanks for the comment :-)
Impact Tremors is a good suggestion but I think Outpost Siege (in the sideboard) is more flexible.
As for Return to the Ranks, it's a good fit! Question is: what to take out ? An Archangel of Thune maybe?

Hi Bovine073 and thanks for the advice !
I definitely forgot to include Wear / Tear in the sideboard, this is fixed now ;-)

Archangel of Thune does seem a bit cute, but that being said I haven't play tested the deck at all. If you are finding Archangel to be amazing every time you draw it then definitely don't cut it, but if your on the fence about it at all definitely give Return a go.

Hey really nice build. Have you considered Ajani's Pridemate or Serra Ascendant?
I'll definitely be looking into playing this for modern... Oh maybe a Soulfire Grand Master?
Or even Felidar Sovereign as a win con

Hi Jimmy_Chinchila and thanks for your propositions.
Regarding Ajani's Pridemate, I really like the card but I have a little preference for my human sub-theme with Cavern of Souls, Champion of the Parish and Kessig Malcontents.
Serra Ascendant and Felidar Sovereign are excellent in the pure Soul Sisters shell but this version gains less life so these cards are less reliable.
Soulfire Grand Master is a very nice idea, I could test it if I get one :-)

Oh Thraben Doomsayer would be sick to twin, not that you'll get the fateful hour bonus unless you're playing against Master of Cruelties but in that case you have Gut Shot to worry about...

Playtested at FNM this week-end. I didn't have Auriok Champions and replaced them by Wall of Omens which were great to help assemble the combo ! Also, Archangel of Thune was only a one-of and that's enough.
Overall, the deck did pretty well and most importantly, is super fun to play while still being competitive !

you only need kiki and resto angel for an infinite combo, hope this helps.

Hi AdamG0411 ! Yes, that's what I explained in the description, there are 2 ways of doing the infinite combo and this is one of them :-)
Thank you, Nef ;-)

Soul sisters' procs and a decent kiki/ resto target I presume. Helps play defense. 3/3 first strikers are often times hard to get by.
January 12, 2016 2:23 p.m.
Hi Udinaas,
It's just as Nef said : the Blade Splicers proc each sister twice and are also excellent kiki/resto targets if you don't get your combo pieces.
With 2 or 3 golems 3/3 first strikers, you can keep at bay almost any ground creatures (Tarmogoyf, Tasigur, the Golden Fang, even unbuffed Primeval Titan...) and gain time to assemble your combo but also present a very decent threat on the offense.
January 13, 2016 6:11 a.m.
So it's kind of back up. Thank you. I just thought, it doesn't go super well with either combo, so I asked.
January 13, 2016 5:19 p.m.
The combo is one aspect of the deck but it's not all-in on this win condition.
The deck can also behave and win like a classic midrange deck, surviving early game with the sisters and winning through Golems and Angels beatdown, backed up by the burn spells.
Therefore, against disruptive decks, you can even sideboard out all the combo pieces and bring in more threats (Angelic Overseer, Auriok Champion, Mirran Crusader).
That's a big strength of this deck : versatility / adaptability ;-)

So they're banning twin.. I am curious about the future of this deck's idea. Mimic Vat?

Of all the decks playing twin this one fairs the best. Just 3 slots more for the primary sisters strategy possibly a 3rd Kiki if you're greedy enough.
January 16, 2016 11:11 a.m.
Twin provided the deck a surprise win con and a reliable ETB effect generator. I'm not an expert on the deck by any means but I feel as if it will still be hurt by this.
January 16, 2016 11:37 a.m.
Yeah, I'll have to test but I fear this deck is over :(
I'll come back to you when I'll have feedback.
Thanks for the concern though :-)
