Modern* Control Tron

Sideboard


This is my version of Mono U Tron. Counter the shit out of your enemy in the early game, get ur fatties out and it's GG.

I felt like the meta M U Tron had a bit too less wincons, and let's be honest: Just playing for that Mindslaverlock isn't that fun. So, if you are looking for a bit more aggressive version, here you go! :)

Be sure to make suggestions, comment and +1 !


So, here are some thoughts about the cards i picked:

Academy Ruins : Pretty much your get-my-artifact-back-card. If you got Mindslaver in your graveyard, the ruins in your field + 12 mana, it's game.

Batterskull : 4/4 vigilance + lifelink for 5 mana and u don't even need a creature? Yeah!

Chalice of the Void : So fun to play against aggro decks. For 4 (X=2) or even 2 mana (X=1) you can block almost half of their deck.

Condescend : While mana is no problem for you when having a Tron, it will be for your opponent. Sometimes even 1 + U is enough to counter a fattie.

Cyclonic Rift : I love this card. 1 card back to the hand for 1+ U is quite nice, but ALL permanents for 6+U] is just awesome. And you could have enough mana for that by turn 4.

Expedition Map: Pretty much self-explaining. Search for the missing Tron-land or if you already have Mindslaver and mana go for Academy Ruins.

Fabricate : Get an artifact from your deck. Can be played quite variousely, e.g. either for Expedition Map to get that one stupid land or to get ur fatties like Sundering Titan .

Island : Actually I wanted to use Plains in my Mono Blue Tron, but some said these would work better. :(

Mindslaver: Nice wincon, even if you don't have Academy Ruins, it can decide over winning and losing.

Negate: Counter Splinter Twin or Birthing Pod for 1+U? Ok! Gonna take that in.

Phyrexian Metamorph : Incredibly strong card! Can copy your wincons like Mindslaver or Wurmcoil Engine for 3+U or 3+ 2 life! Can also be a saver if your opponent somehow manages to bring a fattie out. Just copy it and send his one back to his hand using Unsummon .

Platinum Angel : You can't loose, your enemy can't win.. If he has no removal for it, gg. Got it in the deck for playing against aggro decks like RDW, you can play the angel turn 3 if u got the tron.

Solemn Simulacrum : Manaramp + Carddraw + 2/2 Blocker for a cost of 4? Great!

Soul of New Phyrexia : Since you can have over 10 mana by t4, you can make your permanents indestrucatble every turn. Even if you discard it, it can still protect all your permanents for 1 turn.

Steel Hellkite : What an amazing creature! Since you have tons of mana, you can pump it's strength up quite high. Flying makes it hard to block and that X-effect can be a boardclear against aggrodecks like white weenie or destroy a specific permanent your enemy controls.

Sundering Titan : Ok, 7/10 for 8 mana is good.But destroying up to 10 lands (5 lands once it gets to the field and 5 lands once it dies) is really overpowered. This creature can be a wincon against multicolored decks like Jund or Slivers.

Talisman of Dominance : Functions like an additional land that you can play for 2 mana. Perfect!

Tectonic Edge : Can get rid of annoying lands or even destroy combos when playing against another Tron deck.

Thirst for Knowledge : Carddraw. Discard 1 artifact and get it back using Academy Ruins. It's as simple as that.

Treasure Mage : You got the Tron + 1 U and draw this creature... often that's game! Get the fitting fattie for the situation out and win!

Unsummon : Get rid of a creature or rescue one of yours for only U. Combos quite well with Phyrexian Metamorph

Urza's Mine , Urza's Power Plant , Urza's Tower: Yeah they are quite useful in a Tron deck ;)Having 7 mana from 3 lands is just cool.

Wurmcoil Engine : Every opponent is gonna hate this card. 6/6 for 6 mana OK. 6/6 Deathtouch and Lifelink for 6 mana is very good. But a 6/6 Deathtouch+ Lifelink creature that puts a 3/3 deathtouch and a 3/3 lifelink token into play when it dies is just broken. (Tip: If you want to be mean just let the Engine die, get the tokens and put the engine back on the top of your deck with Academy Ruins )

So that's pretty much it. Hope you like it and maybe have some advice to make this deck even better! :)
