some (somewhat expensive) changes —Feb. 16, 2018
I added in some shock lands that I picked up at my local game store for a good price, and swapped out Cancel for Mana Leak in favor of a lower CMC that will still land the counter more often than not. In Modern it is important to have plays available in the early game, especially in a deck like this that thrives in the late game, so having a 2CMC cancel is a better early game option.
I also went down one Electrolyze and up one Opt for the following reasons:
Electrolyze has a high CMC for what it does, and while it is thematic to the deck of control/burn, it is tough to bounce back to your hand with Soulfire Grand Master due to a total mana cost of 7 to bounce it back. For this reason, I went with Opt because it can be bounced back easily, gives a better card draw with the Scry, and will also allow for more token generation from Young Pyromancer.
