I'd love some feedback on this deck: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/soul-sisters-swarm/

What I'm looking for, is perhaps a discussion on the viability of such a token build of the Soul Sisters deck.I'm totally new to the Modern format and I started playing two years ago, so most of the old cards are totally alien to me. Any suggestions are more than welcome.The Shrine of Loyal Legions is pretty powerful in my opinion when you've got so many small, white creatures. If the opponent forgets about it, even better. It allows for hefty bursts of myr tokens to pump card:Ajani's Pridemate and provide bodies for attacking or blocking. card:White Sun's Zenith, however, I'm kind of doubting it myself. It seems to be too slow to provide reasonable power to the deck, but it fits the token building.I'm thinking of putting in a couple of Honor of the Pure , got no idea if that'll be viable.

Soul Sisters Swarm

Is it sad that I'd rather link it cause I'm too lazy to copy and paste it to my browser?

Yes, it's kinda sad, especially since your comment didn't actually do anything except make a link.

Well, I was meaning to ask you, are you opposed to combo? I think the Phyrexian Metamorph + Leonin Relic-Warder combo is one of the most powerful things you can do with soul sisters.

Not exactly opposed to combos, just not really happy to rely on them. I'd rather build a consistently strong deck, but the combo could easily find a place in this deck. It's definitely powerful and I could definitely see myself play it.

The nice thing is Phyrexian Metamorph is always good, Leonin Relic-Warder has a lot of utility on its own and you already want the sisters out. It only strengthens your Serra Ascendant s, and it will make it hard for almost any non-infinite combo deck to beat you.

   It'll be hard for RB burn to waste a burn spell on your Sisters when they need that three to the face, and I think you have a good chance of racing most combo decks in the format.  Hard to say with such a robust format, the meta is always evolving and very regional.  My Modern deck deck:stinkweed-scholars-birthing-ooze is trying to get the meta figured out too...only time will tell I guess.

True, true. They're both two good cards. In my meta, I'll mostly be playing a combination of Storm and some variations on Tron, so infinite life would definitely be useful.Too bad the Metamorph doesn't put a counter on the Shrine of Loyal Legions whenever it enters the battlefield again, that would've been awesome!
