What's a good, solid smallpox list for modern?

You'll actually probably end up looking at 8 Rack instead.

I'm actually working on a semi-budgeted Smallpox deck that doesn't use The Rack at all. Granted, it's not the best and it needs a bit of testing, but so far it's been pretty good. I'll get it to you once I have it on the site.

Chemical Warfare is fun!

Here it is. It is based around using 2-for-1 creatures to get around your mass removal and beat in for the win. Also has the optional Devotion route for game 1 against control decks.

The plan is to remove every creature that the opponent plays, then use Nighthowler and Bonehoard to suit up Geralf's Messenger or any of the other creatures. I'm currently on the fence on whether or not I need more board wipes.

I considered playing creatureless aggro-loam with small pox if that sounds exciting to you.

Here is a deck we just came up with. Still working on it, but it has been pretty promising in testing. Small pox is criminally underplayed in modern right now. Enjoy!

Assault loam is (maybe) a thing now that Deathrite Shaman is gone. Maybe....

Here's my list: Life from the Pox
