Help with more competitive modern deck
Modern Deck Help forum

Hey all! I have been playing magic for just over a year now and have thoroughly enjoyed my time with the game. Since I started fairly recently I have mostly stuck with Standard and more recently started playing Commander. I have dipped my toe into modern on mtgo with a super cheap stompy deck, but that ultimately isn't really my play style. It also just couldn't compete most of the time in modern. I have started building a UR Thopter control deck centered around Thopter Spy Network. I love Thopters and have been playing around with several ideas that utilize my favorite Token. I know there is the Thopter/Sword combo but I am not a fan of playing infinite combos so I eliminated that deck immediately. I tried a more aggro build which has potential but needs some ramp as many of the Thopter generators worth playing are above 3 mana. So that is how I ended up with a UR control list you see below. After some playtesting I feel that is missing something but can't place my finger on it. I would appreciate any and all help in tuning the list. The only real "untouchable" card is Thopter Spy Network, but I will consider cutting anything else for a good reason or good replacement. Thanks in advance!

Thopter/Sword isn't an infinite combo, so I'd recommend that for a more competitive deck
