I like it. Have you thought about Maelstrom Pulse at all? And Dismember might be a good kill spell for you. If you need any more.

GabeCubed Thanks for the suggestions. I do have the Dismembers I thought I had them in my maybe list, but I guess not, I'll add them back in.Maelstrom Pulse I don't have yet, But I almost ordered them last night, and I will prolly get a couple here pretty soon. I'm using Bile Blight in it's place for now. It does almost the same thing for smaller creatures obviously. Any other thoughts? Thanks again for checking out the deck.

My only thought is there is something better than Fiendslayer Paladin. And it just came to me. Lingering Souls. The card is really good, and pretty cheap. I would definitely add it.

And I think Noxious Revival instead of Treasured Find. Also, what is your purpose for that card and Ready / Willing? Just wondering.

I had Lingering Souls on my wish list from star city games last night as well as the Maelstrom Pulse, and I will most likely go ahead and get them as well. Noxious Revival looks cool but I don't have those either. I was thinking I could get a Siege Rhino or a Liliana of the Veil back out of my graveyard with Treasured Find since Regrowth isn't Modern legal I don't think. Ready / Willing is meant to be protection from boardwipes, or to provide lifegain when I might need it most. I've seen Sorin, Solemn Visitor in it's place in some builds, but then again most Rock or Junk Decks have 4 Tarmogoyfs in them, so, I'm just looking for options. I thought Fiendslayer Paladin would be a good replacement for the Kitchen Finks, and Voice of Resurgence for Tarmogoyf, then I replaced Lingering Souls with the Fleecemane Lions and Noble Hierarch with Birds of Paradise and Sylvan Caryatid. I'm sure I'll just end up ordering all the cards to make it better. It's between this deck and my Bogles deck for what I play at Modern For now, So, I'd like this deck to be good. I appreciate the help!

You are welcome! I was thinking of Vault of the Archangel instead of Ready / Willing, but that's just me. Gavony Township might not be a bad card either. Also, more fetchs if you can. I would say this a good deck, and the only card that I would say you need is Tarmogoyf. Noble Hierarch is not really what you want in a Junk deck. And Kitchen Finks is good, but I think it was better with Birthing Pod. I can see Sorin, Solemn Visitor being a good card too.

Cool man, I'll look into getting some of the fancy lands, I have seen several builds with those two lands, and a couple others. I just don't have any of them yet. I do have all the newer fetch lands from KTK, so I could add them into the deck in any number, but none of the older ones. I also have Horizon Canopys, which are awesome, but They are in my Bogle deck. And I wanna try to keep it intact. I can't justify the cost of the Tarmogoyf, so I will have to live without them. I was thinking of getting a 4th Voice of Resurgence as a consolation prize. lol

Seems legit lol. Yeah, Tarmogoyf.. WHY MUST YOU BE $200? And I think Windswept Heath is definitely the one you want from KTK. And you'll need to get your hand on some Verdant Catacombs. And Horizon Canopy is fun, but I think you should just keep 'em in your Bogles deck.

I like this a lot. It is similar to my Modern Doran Rock but obviously way more aggro based. That being said, i realize this is aggro but do you think you have enough removal? I cant decide what to suggest taking out for it but maybe mainboard 2 Bile Blight at least.

Congregation at Dawn is a nice 1 or 2 of to set up a Collected Company.

Eternal Witness needs to be here as at least a 3-of, no questions asked. But I like this!

Thanks for the suggestions and the Upvotes everyone! Much Appreciated!

FAMOUSWATERMELON, I'll have to try and track Eternal Witness down , I don't have any in my collection, but I'll consider them, thanks!

puhalakaust, if I can't aggro out ahead of someone in game 1, I usually add removal in from the side for the second and 3rd game.

Reads "I am rededicating this deck to those of us too poor to own playsets of Tarmogoyf and noble heirarch to fill their Junk Builds with."

Looks at price tag of deck.

Dies a little inside.

Hello fellow rock player! Definitly an intresting build and I can see where so many singletons is ok with it but I feel the deck is in general a little everywhere. And that you might have some creatures you don't need at all. I feel if your going the collected company route then you should consider that courser is not needed as a playset in this deck because your going to try to be more agressive than other opponents with the board state your to make. Id cut courser to a 2 of and have 2 Kitchen Finks take its slot because it's more impactful when trying to be agressive than defensive. Also consider Loxodon Smiter over lion because Loxodon can't be discarded effectively and will definitly land vs blue decks. Also for attrition like effects maybe Bloodsoaked Champion with his raid trigger of constantly giving yourself a 2/1 beater or exploit target if you put in sidisi for sideboard. I could also see the knight of reliquary (can't ever spell it correct) be useful in this build because she gets bigger as you get lands in ur yard and will typically be a 4/4 -5/5 and she provides mana correction or will search for your utility lands.

If you want more ideas for a modern junk deck feel free to check mine out Ain't quite abzan with out junk

I run that for modern and it's only $600 but it's very powerful and has done well in my testing and tournament plays

Some number of Eternal Witness is necessary imo. Archangel of Thune is bad without Spike Feeder, and Sylvan Caryatid seems too slow. This deck otherwise seems very consistent and powerful.

Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit seems a bit much, as she's legendary. I'd say cut it to 2 and run 2 Qasali Pridemage. Exalted is cool, he's a bear, and has a relevant ability against Tron, Affinity, Twin, and can even hit Blood Moon!

Knight of the Reliquary is a great creature that gets pumped by fetch lands, can be hit with Collected Company, and can fetch your Horizon Canopy.

In my opinion, he has much more relevance than Mul Daya Channelers. I dislike that card because of its fluctuation and the information it gives your opponent.
