Eidolon of Obstruction

Enchantment Creature — Spirit

First strike

Loyalty abilities of planeswalkers your opponents control more to activate.

I think these cards are too overcosted/inefficient for standard: Eidolon of Inspiration
Victory's Envoy
Grasping Giant
Resolute Rider

But here are a couple more efficient threats that also help to disrupt your opponent: Eidolon of Obstruction
General's Enforcer
Tithe Taker
Lavabrink Venturer (this is not turned off by Hushbringer)
Murderous Rider - you definitely need to include this! It doesn't count as a non-creature, and you will be running into Uro. Keep in mind you turn off Uro's ETB draw with Hushbringer, but also his self-sacrifice trigger, so you're giving your opponents t3 Uro.
Rankle, Master of Pranks

I hope this helps!

WizardOfTheNorthernCoast on Modern Hatebears

Most of the good hatebears have been mentioned already. Here are some more annyoing cards I can add to the list hereabove: Tithe Taker, Suppression Field, Angel of Jubilation, Eidolon of Obstruction, Eidolon of Rhetoric, True Believer, Leyline of Sanctity, Auriok Champion, Kor Firewalker and Aegis of the Gods.

Note that, though I find the archetype very cool, Hatebears - just like DnT - isn't very good in Modern. You have many degenerate strategies going around so unless you know the local meta like no one else, it'll be very hard for you to pull off results at big tournaments. Now if your goal is to have fun and/or try to win your LGS's FNM's then that's totally fine ;)

Eidolon of Obstruction seems like a good way to pressure opposing Nissas and Teferis.

  • "They hit play, do a thing and then need to be answered or they'll gain card advantage and win the game on their own." - Wizards has printed in the last year Murderous Rider, Plaguebearer, Questing Beast, Cavalier of Flame, Dreadhorde Butcher and Eidolon of Obstruction in the last year alone as great answers to planeswalkers that prevents them from gaining further advantage aside from their first activation or ETB effect, whilst creating advantage for you. These are available in all colors but blue, which in turn has gotten the most powerful planeswalkers in the last year, so things seem pretty balanced on that front.

"FAILURE RATE MEANS NOTHING" - i forgot to comment on this one, even though it is all caps. If you make an omelette and get an eggshell piece in it (break egg on flat surface, rather than edge to avoid that), do you yeet the whole omelette out the window, or simply remove the eggshell and go on? Or be a rebel and enjoy the omelette regardless?

Honestly, you cannot make a new design omelette without breaking a few eggs, which can result in eggshells.
