Ponder/Brainstorm/Preordain in Modern, Replacements?

Modern forum

Posted on March 5, 2014, 8:52 p.m. by nani75185

I know that the listed cards above are banned in modern. Are there any 1 drop cards that allow some sort of draw and/or scry amount for either 1, U, or B? So far I have found Peek , Lost in a Labyrinth , Serum Visions , Twisted Image , Thought Scour , and Visions of Beyond . Are there any others I may have missed or did not think of?

Gitaxian Probe is a big one. Sleight of Hand and Think Twice are less played. Among the ones you listed, I think Serum Visions is the most played.

Also, the Q&A is for rules questions. You should probably have asked this in the General or Modern forum.

I apologize for the improper placement of my question. I have read the options and thought this was the best spot for it. Now that I see an option for forum questions, I will correct myself in the future.

You have to go through a filter page to ask a question in the Q&A. Please read that page.

Moved to Modern.

Sleight of Hand , Serum Visions , and Gitaxian Probe are probably the best ones.

I swear by Serum Visions , I actually like it better than Preordain because no matter what you are guaranteed to look at 3 cards

I definitely swear by Serum Visions . You always take a look at 3 cards and can easily fetch around your scry's.

Gitaxian Probe all day for me. I'd much rather know what I'm playing around than pitching lands and hoping for the best.

yes Visions of Beyond is another good'n, especially if you're running Jace, Memory Adept or any other milling effects
