Its been awhile since Ive played. I last played when Origins came out. I won a Standard Game Day tourney with my Blue Devotion deck and been out since. Recently, Ive seen Mono Blue decks that were not Merfolk on various sites and decided to try my first Modern deck and this is the list I ended up with (on a budget of 100, not including cards I still had). I could use some suggestions, mainly on the numbers. Once I go to my first tourney, ill post results. Thanks in advance!
UPDATE: Went to my 1st Modern tournament last night and heres the summary of results.
Game 1: 0-2 vs Death's Shadow
I didnt expect this deck and apparently there were at least 3 of them in a field of 18.
Game 2: 2-0 vs Infect
Very easy match. The merfolks just straight up ruined anything they had going.
Game 3: 1-2 vs Sultai
Evenly matched, but the last game I got flooded out. Probably couldve won if i didnt focus on Jace with my attacks when he was only at 4 life.
Game 4: 2-1 vs Grixis
Almost a sweep. Last game came down to his board of Pyromancer tokens vs my Elementals. Had a Harbinger last minute that kept him from having lethal.
Game 5: 1-2 vs Storm
In what probably should be a good matchup for me, the last game he had 6 goblin tokens on turn 2 with Empty the Warrens followed by 3 straight Bolts. Brutal.
Overall, I feel my first tournament was a great experience. I think with a better sideboard this deck can compete. People really liked the deck and it received a lot of compliments. I enjoyed playing it.
