Cephalid Constable
Creature — Cephalid Wizard
Whenever Cephalid Constable deals combat damage to a player, return up to that many target permanents that player controls to their owners' hands.
sergiodelrio on Pattern Recognition #308 - Bounce
2 months ago
It can be really "fun" against Tron tho... I used to have a modern bounce deck that also ran Cephalid Constable and pretty much all the bounce spells that also hit lands.
"What if you never hit your third land drop?" was the name of the game, and I have some very fond memories of ragequits.
However, the deck was inconsistent (mostly besause there are only 8 land bounce spells in modern and because of everything wallisface said) and had many bad matchups.

Cephalid Constable great target for the unblockable.
Spine of Ish Sah great clue. Add to the main board.

Color denial on its own isn't a win condition, it's just disruption, and you need something else going on to make the single-land deniers playable. Blood Moon shuts off multiple lands and Spreading Seas replaces itself, so that's why those are the ones that get play.
But that said... Contaminated Ground and Pooling Venom can be win conditions, if you use them as repeatable shocks in combination with Hidden Strings, Fatestitcher, or Icy Manipulator to force your opponents to use them even when they don't want to. There's a brew from about 5 years ago I have bookmarked that does that: For Assholes Only
Another idea I've had is a mostly-blue deck that denies the first few lands until resolving an Isochron Scepter with Boomerang imprinted to keep them stuck at 2 Islands forever. The final win condition is just Cephalid Constable and Venser, Shaper Savant beatdown.

The Jeskai version of Kamiz, Obscura Oculus. I agree with you, human tribal is the wrong direction. Value off unblockability is the way to go. Infect/toxic if you want to be evil :)
Blinding Angel is epic. Glad to see this old rare in your list. Auto include no matter which strategy you chose for Aragon.
Marton Stromgald speeds up the aggro clock similar to infect/toxic.
Battle Angels of Tyr deep value.
Sun Titan or Inferno Titan repeatable value.
Cephalid Constable really fits the theme.
Flamerush Rider similar to Tilonalli's Skinshifter
Orcish Squatters haha
Graceful Antelope the haha continues

Cephalid Constable is spicy with that magecraft trigger.

This is a cool deck! Have you thought about Cephalid Constable or Viridian Joiner? They both seem like they could work really well in this deck.
