How to build U/W Modern decks?

Modern forum

Posted on Dec. 15, 2012, 1:13 p.m. by MTG_Player

I have a playset of Geists, snappies, restoration angels, I still need some cards, but I really want a replacement for fetches, (they cost to much). Building a control deck with terminus and supreme verdict, angel of serenity, sphinx's revelation: is easier and cheaper, but not as effective. I just want a deck that is a way to start on a 4-500 dollar budget.

Build a deck based around Venser, the Sojourner and Reveillark .

As always, I am a big advocate of the Gifts Ungiven into Unburial Rites into Iona, Shield of Emeria plan. For U/W decks it is the strongest ing you can be doing and it almost always ends in a win for you as long as you aren't dead on board. If you want to build a deck with Geist of Saint Traft as a win con, consider splashing black for Lingering Souls and a great shell would be the one that Kibler and Finkel took to the players championship (FInkel came in 4th). You can find a deck tech video on it on youtube.

Oh and since you already have the most expensive part of their deck (snaps, geists, and angels), their deck can be built for around 200 dollars if you still want to cut fetches.

If you are willing to add red to the deck you can pick up a play set of lightning bolts and helix's for cheap and make an awesome R/W/U deck with what you already own. Also Path to Exile might be necessary.

I'm sure you are most likely already aware of these cards, but in a two color deck you can use Celestial Colonnade , Seachrome Coast , Mystic Gate , Moorland Haunt , Glacial Fortress , instead of fetches to fix you mana quit easily and add utility to the deck. They don't thin the deck like fetches do, but they are much cheaper options and are still great cards.
