Modern investments?
Economics forum

I am trying to begin the process of getting in to modern and was wonder what the best cards to buy as a way to ease into the format, so I have tradable things for the format. I do not have a deck I want to play yet just looking for cards to start with, thank you.

sounds about right, but I figured I would go after those once I am set on a deck

When I was a standard player, I went for all of them, so I could build any deck I wanted, because I knew my interest in standard would decline.
I suggest all of them :P
Shocks first.

my only problem with modern is you get a tier 2 deck for cheap or a tier 1 deck for a grand and I don't have that type of money

You could always go for the middle ground and play tier 1.5 like Bogles, or U/G infect.

From a friend who I thought played without vials even he first played the deck:
"Nope. When I first started playing Hatebears I played only 3 vials. I don't know if there is a good replacement, you need them to off set destroying your own lands and to gain a tempo advantage against your opponent."

I like the ug infect but its terrible in the meta, maybe storm if Scalding Tarn gets a reprint

Waste Not Storm, if you wanna storm for cheap.
Some reforge the souls , Burning Inquiry , all the modern legal Rituals, Simian Spirit Guide , Past in Flames , Pyromancer's Ascension, Locket of Yesterdays . I personally enjoy Dream Salvage a ton in the deck. One mana, draw at least 3 three cards.
People who use card names as their username suck.

Sorry, not a username this time, it was a deck name.

Technically its Reforge the Soul *. Cards have priority over deck or usernames. When the link is wrong, you spelled it wrong.
