Fun little modern deck for FNM. I got the idea from an old standard deck from Pro Tour Paris 2011 by Frank Karsten, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDTX2xoZ77E

It runs 8 zero-drop creatures, with Endless One as the 9th. Then 9 bounce creatures to bounce the zero drops back to my hand and cast them again for the Quest for the Holy Relic trigger. Signal Pest for a plan b beatdown with my 2/2 flyers. Thraben Inspector and Mishra's Bauble for card draw. Kor Outfitter to re-equip the Argentum Armor if the creature gets Fatal Pushed or Path to Exileed, since i dont usually get to 6 mana. Soltari Priest for another semi-unblockable 2/2, ala the flyers.

I'm just getting into tournament magic, so sideboarding is a new thing for me. I usually side out Mishra's Bauble, Soltari Priest, or Kor Outfitter. Disenchant comes in for Ensnaring Bridge or random enchantments. Auriok Champion and Burrenton Forge-Tender come in against red decks and storm. Mirran Crusader for black decks. Phyrexian Crusader for planeswalkers, and Path to Exile and Journey to Nowhere for annoying creatures. Its a pretty budget deck, but i plan on replacing the journeys with more paths once i can get them. I wouldn't mind going down to 30 creatures for some other tech if its good, and i'm also thinking about making room for Squadron Hawk.

I consistently go 2-2, 2-1, at fnm, but still looking for that first undefeated run.
