Lack of Flying control and overall help needed

Modern Deck Help forum

Posted on March 10, 2019, 7:12 p.m. by garruk3

Hello everyone. I was wondering if there were any good green (or if there isn't any good for green, black) card removal that can board wipe flying creatures in modern. I want to make sure that if I run into an angel deck (which I don't believe is meta for modern at the moment but still). I also would like to know if there is some dead obvious cards that I could put in my elf deck that would make it better overall.

Here's the deck link if you want to see the deck itself: The TRUE Eleven (pointy-eared) Army

Corrosive Gale ,

Sadly, Whirlwind is not modern legal.

Firespout is the go to for a lot of decks.

Plummet also exists.

you might wanna change "the true eleven" to "the true elven", unless theres a pun or something i'm missing. black gives access to a bunch of obvious single target removal. Fatal Push , Abrupt Decay , Assassin's Trophy , and Cast Down . Beast Within is also a really versatile option. but you definitely need some dual lands in your deck. Verdant Catacombs , Overgrown Tomb , and Woodland Cemetery .

as for "board wipes", theres Heaven / Earth (fortunately for you, Heaven is the top half. its also an instant, unlike Firespout ), or theres Hurricane which also has the added benefit of dealing damage to your opponent directly.

Thank you everyone. And yes that was a big typo on my part. Don't know how I didn't realize it for so long.
