apparently I've already upvoted this deck before... love it and have a very similar brew in Jeskai colors.... a thought that i have is maybe Subtlety could work well in here combined with your discrad spells.... or maybe even just using Grief/Fury for bodies on the field to block/apply pressure?

I'd love to hear some war stories about how this deck performs at your LGS/wherever you play!

I went to the LGS to play Modern last night... I was playing a bad Blue Moon decklist that seriously needs adjustments/updates.... but I had a blast... placed 6th out of 9 players (epic 3 way tie for last place technically...but Ill Take it!)

Living End

• This deck is funny... Grief ETB effects are disgusting.

Goblins

• I played this gentleman last week but he was running affinity...so i was a little thrown off when i saw turn one Skirk Prospector was expecting an aggro Goblin Bushwhacker style deck.... but instead is was a really cool combo using Boggart Harbinger, Conspicuous Snoop and Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker.... never seen it before and just thought it was cool.

Jeskai Prowess

• I thought i was being clever using Spreading Seas on his Sacred Foundry to keep him off his {W} mana to stop Boros Charm/Clever Lumimancer... didnt pan out...Manamorphose into Lightning Bolt then Remand on their bolt... 4 mana investment for 3 prowess triggers from the usual suspects with 2 draw and 3 damage to face....yikes.

Have you considered Subtlety and/or Grief? In a competitive setting they have basically become modern staples.

you could drop two Davriel, Rogue Shadowmage for the Grief and have more early hand removal or a turn 4 menace beater.

You can do that. Evoke is an alternative casting cost and a triggered ability. When you cast Grief for it's evoke cost it will enter the battlefield. Then the sacrifice ability and the ETB will both go on the stack. Players will get priority and can respond before any of them resolve. Allowing you to put a +1/+1 counter on Grief before it is sacrificed.
