The Card Paradoxical Outcome seemed really broken to me, so I made a modern Deck around it.This is by no means a finished list, I am still working on it. This is the third version of this deck I played. With no interaction from the opponent the deck wins consistently on turn 4 with occasional turn 3 wins. Also its just 2 tix online when make the landbase mostly islands, which is nice.
The basic idea is to use cost reduction, granted by Semblance Anvil and the likes to turn our two mana cantrip artifacts into 0 mana draw a card, then eventually Paradoxical Outcome and win the game. To enable this quickly, the card Inspiring Statuary has proven to be extremely useful and worthy of a playset inclusion. It is not uncommon to resolve multiple Paradoxical Outcomes in one turn, or even Mystical Teachings search outcome, play outcome. Mystical teachings is there to search for Paradoxical most of the time, but can also get the one mainboard repeal or sideboard negate in a pinch.
The win condition is currently Aetherflux Reservoir since it gets cheaper to cast with artifact cost reduction, and gains of a ton of life even when we are not all-out comboing. We drop it, then cast a bunch of spells, maybe throw an ancestral statue in there for infinite life, then shoot the opponent to death. 42 times. And all of his creatures 42 times as well. For style points.I consider changing to Grapeshot, as grapeshot does not lose to a counterspell or stony silence.
Ancestral Statue seems really weird until you realise that it can bounce itself to our hand, so if artifacts are 4 cheaper to cast, we get to create infinite storm with it, or at least play him really often.
If you have any ideas to make this deck more consitent, or better in general, let me know.
