Accumulated knowledge??

Modern forum

Posted on June 16, 2015, 11:06 p.m. by Dimukon

Hey guys they reprinted accumulated knowledge in the kiora deck of kiora vs elspeth duel deck. It has the modern boarder. Is it legal? If not can you suggest good draw cards to pump creatures like Lorescale Coatl??

No, cards are only legal in Modern if they have been printed in a Standard legal set from 8th edition and Mirrodin block forward.

As far as cheap card draw for Lorescale Coatl there are the obvious suspects: Serum Visions, Sphinx's Revelation, Thought Scour, and others.

Accumulated Knowledge is not legal in modern, Duel decks and Other side products such as C14 and c13 are legacy legal

As for good card draw in modern, I would suggest Cantrips such as Serum Visions, Gitaxian Probe, Sleight of Hand, Peek, and Think Twice to name a few

Of note, Sleight of Hand technically doesn't draw a card. So it won't grow the Lorescale Coatl. That said, it's still a good card to have for finding cards you're looking for.

Brainstorm is a really good way of pumping up Lorescale Coatl.

@Dimukon, You can still make a fun casual deck with both Brainstorm and Accumulated Knowledge.
