All Hail Thought-Knot

Modern

Jackson-003


Sideboard


Though-Knot Seer is the best card in this deck. In my opionion it may be the best creature in modern. So good. Anyway!

So not a crazy twist on anything, but it does have some minor changes.

  • I run one less Cavern of Souls and one Sanctum. Sometimes Sanctum wins games outright by chaining a Ballista or Karn or even All is Dust into a Ulamog. Otherwise it’s just another mana source. If I need a Cavern, I’ll Map for it, otherwise it’s more a luxury item.

  • I run a Field of Ruin over one Ghost quarter because I like not being a land down, but it’s not totally necessary.

  • I mainboard one Wurm, and mainboard a Batterskull. Those two cards are too good not to use agaisnt an aggro heavy world. The Wurm is in specifically to be used against Jund, as Batterskull commonly won’t trade with Tarm.

  • I run zero (0) pithing needles because I think Sorcerous Spyglass is just better. E-Tron isn’t reliant on turn one unless it’s a Chalice on zero for Affinity, an Expedition Map, or even a Basilisk Collar. So where E-Tron needs turn one, pithing doesn’t have priority. Also for one more mana, Spyglass lets me see that hand. Just a better Pithing for marginally more.

  • Not to far out there but one Skysovereign in the side board. Specifically for affinity.

  • Um so the questionable part. I see a lot of mill decks in my area so I have a Aeons Emrakul sideboard. The problem is, does it work? It definitely stops mill but if it’s in my hand, it’s a lot of work to cast it and I don’t know if it’s worth it. The other titans are too easily removed to justify and it is an eldrazi deck...

Besides that nothing crazy. I’ve been able to Ulamog turn four for an instant scoop vs Jund so I think it’s worth it to run at least one. I mainboard a more aggressive stance because that’s how I like playing. If there’s any changes that should be changed immediately let me know! I’m always looking for advice!
