Competitive land destruction

Modern Deck Help forum

Posted on May 2, 2016, 6:50 p.m. by nickiru

Hey! I have been working on this for 2 years and its very consistent.

With your people's vast range of knowledges, do you have any card suggestions?

My latest additions were Engineered Explosives and Squelch.

E-explosives is perfect cause I am multi colored to fully use it, my permanents are either 1 cost or 5, and its can remove anything from large groups to targeted if need be (target as in 1 for 1, very good how it doesn't target.)

But yah. I am curious if I can tweak it any more before I go to the major tournaments.

Thanks!

Some of you from long ago might remember this thing. It was popular for a bit on the forums and then I stopped for a period of time.

Although not a land destruction card Plow Under can be devastating late game especially if they are running on only 2 land

This one is appealing!

Thanks.

I also am very attracted to cards like Squelch and Shadow of Doubt because they alternatively destroy lands (by canceling a fetch.) Any alternatives like, preventing playing of a land or anything I haven't conceived of yet are great. Also 2 mana and down is optimum cause turn 2 land destruction is what makes the archetype competitive.

things like:

Conjurer's Ban

Pithing Needle

and too bad its not 2 mana Moonhold

.

Squelch is optimum cause it draws me a card. Brutal card advantage when it cancels a fetch. And it is never worthless right? activated abilities covers a lot of crap.

things like that.
