There is no one true author for this. It was a collaborative efforts on behalf of the people listed on top. Although if you wanted to thank one person, it would be Chief. He was the one that put this into motion, and he did a lot of work on it.

You might want to link my primer in the Scapeshift section.

Hey man, I put up a post on your wall with regards to this, and would just like to send out a reminder in case you had passed it over (At present, number 9). Just curious if you thought that that might be something to include.

GlistenerAgent can I have a link to your primer please.

ThatJunkMage - can I have a link to yours as well. If you want to make them private deck descriptions and then just share the deck with me and tag me, that's ok as well.

In the Soul Sisters 'sideboarding against' section, you might want to add Atarka's Command as another lifegain stopper.
Good job though :)

Murderous Cut is definitely one of the best removal spells in control decks. It's cheap and effective.

But in Modern the go to Control deck is Jeskai, Which means no black.
I can see it being played in Abzan or Jund but these archetypes are not my area of expertise.

Under Storm:
The mana generated with the Rituals and Manamorphose is then used on cheap draw spells (cantrips) like Gitaxian Probe, Serum Visions and Serum Visions to refill your hand.
I'm assuming that one of those Serum Visions should be a Sleight of Hand.

Yea np! I have a slight obsession over the modern format:p.
I've been working on trading standards (which is usually what I end up with, prereleasing and drafting) for modern staples. Like today I traded some for a Gitaxian Probe + other cards I wanted, but I solely took the probe because it's a staple.
Is this the way to go about it? Or is there some secret besides buying cards, which is what I do when I can

I may write a primer on Podless Pod/Anti-Abzan. If you think that it could fit in, I'll write it over the next week.
April 11, 2015 9:05 a.m.
Take out pod, in with Company. Also just a bunch of superefficient creatures and hate creatures, like Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit, Kitchen Finks, Thalia, stuff like that. For the Anti-abzan, visit my version Fall Out Boy

Yeh I know what you were saying. It's called just called Collective Company at the moment. Not sure why you're calling it anti-abzan.

I may be missing something but it was a team effort, But if we are thanking someone I would thank ChiefBell for coordinating, editing and writing a large majority of it.
