I agree with Xinofos. Modern is home to several ways of play, not just those "turn 4 win combos". Often times even those can be stopped by a good sideboard.
Looks like Putrefy is going to take it. Moving along.
I'm not sure how this works against other control, but I have an american deck called Possibilities which uses the combo of Curse of Exhaustion and Possibility Storm . But control decks have a lot of flashback and its probably better to go with Assemble the Legion . Also, sideboarding a lot of counterspells would be a good way to play against other control decks. especially Counterflux .
i had forgotten about that one.... might have to try that out... :D
I read your update about adding white to the mix and I am similarly working on a deck I call American Zarek. Another control based spell with that option is Render Silent . Feel free to use my deck for any ideas as I will do the same with yours :-). Hopefully we will each will come up with something crazy fun.
only reason that i found out was because i was playing against a guy in fnm that had been playing since the beginning of the game(never played him in a tourney before) and when i had a Guttersnipe on the field i cast a spell to cancel something and he asked if i would like the trigger to hit him or the jace that he had on the field.... judge informed me that anything that hits a player for damage can be redirected to a planeswalker instead... i was like holy shit.... lol
Pretty sure emilos was simply saying, the $238 the deck is worth, or was worth at the time of him posting that, would be better used towards any other cards in standard totalling up to $238.
In other words he didn't like your deck. Which is pretty rude, he could've just said nothing but w/e.
I really like rogue decks, this deck looks like a lot of fun to play with.
Maybe u could check out one of my decks Chronic Strike
Its a rogue mono blue mill deck that I've been having some success with lately. Would like some feedback tho, I only run 23 lands because its mono blue all islands so I never get color screwed but I also don't have ramp so I can stall out at 4 lands and aside from can tripping there isn't much I can do.
