Saw this deck recently in the usual 5-0 deck pile on mtgo and it hit me right in the face!

I havn't played modern since spring, mainly because of the virus but also I did not like any decks that were meta since then. I played Affinity and Hardened Scales in the past, also some Death's Shadow ... then they banned Mox Opal, I changed around and I started playing Urza. Then they banned Astrolabe ...

So I was pretty down after that for a long period of time and only played a bit of Death's Shadow until everyone started playing BR Shadow which I hate.

Then I saw this beauty of a deck, you spam spells like affinity and some starts can be absolutely broken, you have a pseudo mox opal in mox amber and you can play the tempo control game after sideboarding with push and thoughtseize! I love it!

The deck is pretty new but looks promising, and I really hope that it picks up some momentum and can compete with all the other decks right now. Even if it is not t1 right now, 1-2 new printed cards can change that very fast, also you can still optimize it. Also it is a lot of fun to play this deck!

Changelog

I cut 1 Teferi, Time Raveler and the 1 Spellskite for 2 Jace, Vryn's Prodigy   and it feels way better. Teferi drawn in multiples is really bad, erayo too if you already have one flipped, so JVP does multiple things:

• Filter excess legendarys and lands

• Discard Unearth Targets

• Is a legendary creature for mox amber

• You can flashback instants and sorcerys from your grave.

Tell me what you think and leave a comment, if you have any ideas about the deck.
