I'm actually not a fan of EI in pure control lists. As the person above me said Consult the Star Charts is probably one of the best CA spells right now for control decks after the Ring ban. its better than deluge and brainsurge, its instant speed unlike stock up.

In this meta running Force of Negation is probably necessary. People also are maindecking 1-2 Cling to Dust because its good against phlage goryos and combo reanimator. I also suggest running at least 3 Consign to Memory in the sideboard along with a little more grave hate, maybe Nihil Spellbomb. Fire Magic and Hidetsugu Consumes All  Flip are additional sweeper options.

Also I really want to suggest my pet card Nicol Bolas Dragon God but its probably unplayable in modern nowadays

casts Raise on thread In the current meta, I'm partial to Fangren Marauder and Viridian Revel as a way to hose all the treasure and clue tokens (and things like Nihil Spellbomb, Wayfarer's Bauble, Sylvok Replica, and Wizard Replica), and to a lesser extent artifact decks in general. Fangren Marauder can actually net me 20+ life in a typical game.

It can be a nice political tool. "You want to sac a clue token? That's nice, but I draw a card too." "You want to sac a treasure token? Well, I hope you're not paying for an spell because I'll gain 5 life off of it."

I think Choke is a card you’d probably leave in the sideboard to battle decks that use islands. But I think Power Conduit is a good mainboard addition:

Each option has it's own strengths and weaknesses which need to be considered - they're each meta dependent, as well as dependent on the kind of deck you yourself are running

  • Relic of Progenitus is probably the strongest card here, but can be really unideal if your own deck is wanting to use its graveyard, as Relic removes your own grave as well. Generally I'll generally only consider the other options below when Relic feels too self-damaging. It's also worth noting that Relic requires a mana to perform its mass-exile, so prefers your deck to be able to easily leave mana up.

  • Soul-Guide Lantern is imo a generally worse Relic of Progenitus, but can be a better option for protecting your own graveyard. Not requiring a mana for exile will also sometimes help with decks tighter on mana. Its ETB seems interesting but I haven't found it particularly relevant most of the time, particularly as an Urza's Saga fetch target.

  • Tormod's Crypt is the bare-bones graveyard hate, as it costs no mana but comes with no benefits. Its probably only worth considering for decks that are extremely tight on mana (aggro), or decks with high artifact-count-relevance (affinity). Generally I think it would be super hard to justify using this as an Urza's Saga fetch.

  • Nihil Spellbomb is a stronger Soul-Guide Lantern if your deck has the ability to pay the .

  • Ghost Vacuum is interesting but generally wants to only be played in a deck that has decent-odds of making a game go long (if you're unlikely to ever trigger its mana ability, you're better off just using Relic of Progenitus)

  • Grafdigger's Cage hits a very specific range of strategies, while doing nothing for other plans, so is super meta reliant.

TheOfficialCreator Yes I think Soul-Guide or Tormod's in Emry decks; Relic or Vacuum in other decks. Nihil Spellbomb is also unique in that you don't HAVE to hold up mana for it, but it still can cantrip+exile like Relic, so in a black deck I think Nihil is better. In the current modern meta I think Ghost Vacuum makes the most sense given the 2 most popular decks run Phlage and Oculus, making it both denial and a wincon. Grafdigger's Cage could also be promising if we start seeing a lot more Green Sun's decks.

I'm curious especially for you Modern players, which is the best / your favorite or -drop piece of GRAVEYARD HATE to include in an Urza's Saga package?

To me it seems the contenders are...

Relic of Progenitus

Soul-Guide Lantern

Tormod's Crypt

Nihil Spellbomb

Ghost Vacuum

Grafdigger's Cage

Personally I have really been liking Ghost Vacuum for the repeatability, and the 2nd ability's effectiveness against cards like Phlage and Abhorrent Oculus, though it is weaker against decks such as delirium which rely more on a mass of cards in the graveyard vs. specific ones.

Are there any classic graveyard removal rocks I am missing? Which is your favorite and why?

Erebos' Totally Devoted to Death . Lost again. I missed a land drop. Cody's Heliod Heliod, the Radiant Dawn  Flip went off and killed us all pretty quickly. I was setting up for some good plays, played a Phyrexian Obliterator and as I was digging for a land with Erebos and a Nihil Spellbomb, found a Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx but without enough mana to activate it. I never got to as Cody killed us after he untapped.

Hi. Since you have 3x Murktide Regent maybe could be more useful to play Consider instead of Preordain. To get some more utility you can try +1 Archmage's Charm and -1 The One Ring in main and 1 The One Ring can go to sideboard.

In sideboard can be useful to have some anti grave spells like Surgical Extraction or Nihil Spellbomb. Some more Consign to Memory will be good.
