Voice in Junk rites?
Standard forum

Are people playing Voice of Resurgence in combination with Unburial Rites ? It seems like that would be a nice combination to add to a Junk deck. I realize that most Junk decks want to pitch high CMC creatures to the graveyard and then bring them back fast, but it just feels like Voice might have a place in there somewhere. Thoughts?
Not really. Rites doesn't have quite enough creatures to make the tokens great, and it doesn't have anti pillar tech like junk aristocrats. That, and all the matchups where voice is good there are pillars in anticipation.

This is true, it depends on how much you've modified your junk archetype. I ran with mana dorks and acidic slime/centaur healers (depending on the matchup) on top of thrags + angels and what not, so it would've been right at home in my junk rights deck, but it really depends on yours.

Haven't made one yet. I usually play Naya and bit the bullet to get a playset of voice and am considering different ways to take it. Junk came to mind as it has access to a lot of great cards and I haven't tried Junk yet (I play around with lots of builds).

I do run it in a junk deck that is modern with Eternal Witness and Reveillark It is quite fun.

Voice is good at slowing aggro down and it has been used as sideboard tech, or even mainboard at times, Junk rites is surprisingly customizable to suite a specific meta, it might work for you and it might not, only hours upon hours of testing will tell.

If you can play Voice of Resurgence chances are you probably should. It's a fantastic early game disruption against control or aggro.
