Playtested 3 games against my deck. Glad to see you included my commander Minn, Wily Illusionist. Found everything very expensive. I would suggest adding some lower cost legendaries. All these 4/5/6 drops you have could be switched over for 2 drops, can play twice as many in one turn to activate your commanders effect more often.

Some quick suggestions from a quick MTG search:

Additionally, I'd suggest some cards that react more to all the card draw (even if they aren't legendaries):

I’m concerned your deck isn’t focused enough to achieve what you’re wanting. My concerns are:

  • your mill cards aren’t strong or plentiful enough to ever realistically mill an opponent out of cards. They appear to exist only to buff Jace's Phantasm , which feels really unoptimal because it means half your deck is focused on making one easily-killable card stronger.

  • without being able to realistically mill an opponent, you’re left with having to win through ulting Jace, or creature damage… the deck looks like it’s going to have a really hard time achieving either of these goals also.

  • the mana curve here feels rough. Modern is a fast format and i’m not sure you’re running enough stuff to slow it down to accomodate these high cmc cards. Jace's Projection feels particularly rough in that it’s both high-cmc and not really very strong.

It feels like your deck is trying to do too many things at once - it’s trying to mill, its trying to provide creature-threats, and it’s (very loosely) trying to control the game. I think your deck needs to choose one of those 3 directions to focus on, and stop running stuff that support those other 2 options.

I notice in your description you mention you want to add many various control cards. If you do want to head down the control route, your best bet is ditching every card in your deck other than JTMS, and then adding in these cards you mention in the description, amongst others.

No, because Brainstorm is basically a draw 1 card and scry 2 + with the added synergy with Toothy, Imaginary Friend and Jace's Projection

Hey!

You've got Jace's Projection two times in your deck! If you're looking for upgrades you can have a look at my list:

Sibling Rivalry

Enchantment

As long as you control a Will Kenrith or a Rowan Kenrith planeswalker, whenever you activate a planeswalker loyalty ability, tap target creature or planeswalker controlled by an opponent and Sibling Rivalry deals 2 damage to it. It doesn't untap on its controller's next untap step.

Will and Rowan had bickered and fought before, but until now, never had their disagreement risen to violence.


Create a signature spell or a creature ally for Angrath. By creature ally, I mean something like Jace's Projection , Rowan's Battleguard (interestingly, TappedOut doesn't have this card in its library to link to), or Angrath's Ambusher (I obviously know Angrath has one; I want to see something different, something more closely aligned to his character).

I have a thread that you can post this on if you are looking for help with it called Quick, Thoughtful Deck help. As for my own suggestions, I see 15 Instants and 3 Sorceries. A certain card, Arclight Phoenix , seems like a very good choice for your deck as it makes the discards from your Thrills and Scions less awkward. Also, consider taking out the one copy of Ionize and Electrodominance for two copies of either Ral, Izzet Viceroy , Jace's Projection , or even a card like Bag of Holding . Ral can deal with the opponent’s big threats while also letting you filter through your deck, Jace’s Projection can get pretty out of hand with extreme card draw, and Bag keeps your discarded spells able to be returned to you. As for any other advice, Niv-Mizzet, Parun seems pretty okay in here, and Mystic Sanctuary to get back some of your spells doesn’t seem half bad either.

I think tempo-ish could definitely be a way to go. If that's the plan, then we could use more Gadwick, the Wizened . Even for 3 mana he seems great. You get to tap down opponent's board while flashing in creatures and countering spells. Late game he just draws all the cards.

Then you also want Essence Capture over Negate to keep up tempo. Most or all of the Negates could go to the sideboard.

I get what you want to do with Jace's Projection and by all means, you should! That's what we're here for. But the card itself is quite weak. It's a 4-mana 2/2 that doesn't impact the board in any way. When green decks are already churning out 4/4's and 5/5's by turn 3-4, I don't think it'll be able to keep up. Also, it dies to just about any removal (even Shock ) which is a huge downside.

I'd also want the full 4 copies of Sinister Sabotage .
