I own all but the Marsh Flats so I'm a little stuck in this deck. Looking at Gideon, Ally of Zendikar.

Gotta Go Fast

I played with another group of edh players outside of my normal circle and it was made evident that I needed to speed up the deck. So it is more geared towards aggro ramping up to its control and combo out mode.
IT'S HERE

GUYS THE FIRST SNAPCASTER MAGE ARRIVED IN THE MAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm still negotiating for a second and will eventually get it, but the question right now is when and where. Should be within a few weeks, so happy times! EDIT: SECOND SNAP IS IN THE MAIL!!!! I also traded for a RAV Remand which looks great.
That brings the acquireboard down to 1 Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth, which I am getting soon I think and 1 Blackcleave Cliffs, which I have no idea how to get. It's just so expensive cuz of modern Jund.... wish I had gotten it back when it was $6 O_o
If anyone has any suggestions on what I should do about Cliffs, I'm all ears. I don't really want to buy it, but I kind of need it in here I think. It's also hard to get because there's a lot of demand for them. I suppose I could run a second Blood Crypt, which I've kinda wanted to do for awhile, but never really acted on. All advice is appreciated!
+1 Bolt and side stuff
infinitelennies, 9 years ago
Mainboard: Replaced 1 Electrolyze with 1 Lightning Bolt.
Sideboard: Replaced both Dispels with Negates because Negate can counter Karn Liberated. Replaced Feed the Clan with Nourish.
Creeping Tar Pit
DuTogira, 9 years ago
1xSunken Ruins --> 1xCreeping Tar Pit
The Reason for this swap is that some decks will force us to play longer, grindy kinds of games. In these games, Creeping Tar Pit is a very powerful way to close the game out, and is nearly as useful for mana fixing as Sunken Ruins.
Basically, against decks like hatebears or kiki-chord that might try to force us to play a fair game of Magic, we can sideboard out the combo, try to simply stay in the game as long as possible, and then try to use Creeping Tar Pit to close out the game.

islands will also be split to swamps and wastes depending on distribution
Minor Tweak
BobFromAccounting, 9 years ago
Making a minor tweak to the deck. -1 Mountain +1 Pyretic Ritual. This now gives the deck access to 8 ritual effects and 7 blood moon effects. While mountains are finishers, I feel that having slightly less gives me a stronger opening hand, and with an extra ritual, a better chance into getting that T1 CMC 3 play or even CMC 4 play like a Koth.
Modern Tuesday League Finals: 6th of 9

Booo. Drew pretty poorly.
Round 1: Grixis Delver, 0-2
I got poor draws, he got great draws. Not much more than that honestly. Opponent topdeck'd Snapcaster Mage into Kolaghan's Command to kill our Spellskite and get back and play Gurmag Angler all on T6. Can't win from there.
Round 2: Bant Aggro, 2-0
I finally had decent draws, and game 2 I drew lots of sideboard cards. Always had the bolt for the Noble Hierarch, and the Anger of the Gods + Jace, Vryn's Prodigy Flip for his back to back Geist of Saint Traft.
Round 3: Naya Allies, 2-1
Game 1 my opening hand had an Anger of the Gods, so game loss. Game 2 my opponent looked at 7 cards on a Collected Company. We're both great at magic lol. Had average draws which, alongside Grim Lavamancer, won me both games.
Round 4: Amulet Bloom, 1-2
Can't wait till the deck is banned. I mulliganed every game, G1 went down to 5 but won due to tight plays on my part and a surprise Harvest Pyre when my opponent thought he had lethal. Games 2 and 3 my draws just weren't there. You would think it would be great post board, but by god I couldn't draw to save my life.
Deck Changes
I want a lot of cards in the main, and I really like my sideboard. This basically means anything I cut is probably out of the 75. From this list, I need to cut 4 cards:
2x Electrolyze
2x Spell Snare
Because of this list of choices, I think I'm cutting:
1x Grim Lavamancer - Love playing with this guy, but he is sometimes REALLY bad. Gonna include in sideboard over Engineered Explosives since we can only play that for 2 anyway.
1x Spell Snare - I like having interaction for spells, but this is conditional interaction.
1x Electrolyze - Some games this is just 3 mana draw a card, because you're trying to Twin to win so the damage is irrelevant. Other times its a blowout. 1 is fine I guess.
1x Jace, Vryn's Prodigy Flip - Homie carries games, but drawing multiples is terrible enough to just go down to 1 copy. This isn't standard, where I like having as many as possible.
Updates
Basuldur, 9 years ago
Current thoughts -Perhaps I need more burn. After some playtesting I often feel as if I'm waiting on one more burn spell. However it rarely results in a game loss. -Not so sure on Steppe Lynx, Gurmag Angler. Both are good, would need more testing, or better options. -And maybe -1 Lan +1 Gas
Also, looking for a better name!

Change outs.
dscherer21, 9 years ago
Consistently getting mana screwed. So removed Summon the School, Juniper Order Ranger, Wolfcaller's Howl, and Leyline of Vitality and added Search for Tomorrow, Harrow, Fecundity, and Perilous Forays.
Better version
viraldemon, 9 years ago
Took out the mazes end combo because honestly it was just a bit too goofy/slow, added in a yosei based infinite lock and more consistent mana base.
