Tooth and Twiddle (consistent turn 3/4 win!)

Modern* Aggro Combo Competitive Infinite Combo Ramp

Khaosknight


Sideboard


This is a super consistent aggro/combo deck that seeks to win the game by 1 of several ways:

Wincon 1: Knight of the Reliquary + Retreat to Coralhelm . With ramp you can combo out turn 3. Tap and sac a land with knight, grab a new one, retreat untaps him. Grab fetchlands first to tapdown potential blockers with the extra landfall triggers.Finish with Kessig Wolf Run to grant trample.
Wincon 2: Crazy mana ramp + Tooth and Nail. Use tooth and nail to target Emrakul, the Aeons Torn and Xenagos, God of Revels. Xenagos's secondary effect grants haste and +x/+x to one creature. Target emrakul and swing for 30 in the air with annihilator 6. 9 mana is lethal in this deck, and achievable turn 3 like KoTR.
Wincon 3: Bring to Light. By turn 2, this deck has 4 mana. By turn 3 we can have up to 12 with a godhand. We can get to 5 colors easily. This card requires 5 mana and 3-5 colors to be good, but once you have that it's literally the best tutor in modern. Since gaining a ton of mana is the main gameplan of this deck, Bring to Light is a powerful tool here.
Wincon 4: Speaking of mana, Kessig Wolf Run is an amazing topdeck when you can get 10+ mana and give one of your dorks +10 and trample. Great with KoTR

Supporting Cast

Knight of the Reliquary When combo isn't an option, Knight is an exceptional beater, and you can use him to grab Kessig or fix your mana too.
Retreat to Coralhelm Is an amazing value 3-drop. It tap down an enemy, it can untap a mana dork (which essentially turns each fetch into a black lotus when you have this+adork)
Garruk Wildspeaker Following the theme, garruk is good anywhere. He can effect the board immediately with a token, he can untap your lands, which combos amazingly with the land enchants. He can even Overrun your creatures.
Kiora, Master of the Depths Also untaps. And also digs. And also is a clock if not dealt with.

Tricks

Knight of the Reliquary can respond to removal by grabbing Sejiri Steppe and getting protection.
Retreat to Coralhelm can be used to tapdown attackers with fetch lands.
Xenagos, God of Revels grants haste. Don't forget that he is amazing even if he's not part of an insta-win combo, and even if he's not live.
Bring to Light grabs anything Instant, Sorcery, or Creature. so grab a dork if needed, or an abrupt decay, or whatever you want. It's a bonkers card. Glittering Wish Great g1 BTL target, grab a silver bullet from sb if needed.
