Look at the top three cards of your library. Put one of them into your hand and the rest on the bottom of your library in any order. If you cast this spell from anywhere other than your hand, instead put all those cards into your hand.

@Caerwyn I Think what you said is a really great way of putting what I have been thinking/wresting around with my own thoughts... it was nice to read that in a well put together way... the reserved list is the biggest reason why I chose Modern when I began to invest into the game... but something i didnt account for that legacy has that Modern didnt was the injection of spin-off products like Commander Cards or Planchase cards ect ect... because I never played legacy i never thought about it... so now with the introduction of Modern Horizons and Universes Beyond sets now Im starting to have to face that aspect and its just jarring to get used to... I may be personally Butthurt/whine/complain but overall with what your saying i think I can just go with it and agree its probably just whats best for the game.... I am taking a leap of blind faith that Pioneer wont fall into the same pattern though... I would be sad for a Pioneer horizons or a Lord of the rings "Pioneer Edition" for the future.

@sergiodelrio I honestly do believe there is room for homebrews in Modern. And I really think skill and knowledge of the meta can be rewarded still... at my LGS I beat the players who are frankly just bad... but the guys playing Tron/Cascade/ponza at he shop are also just really good players too so when I do even just beat them 1/3 times it really feels like an achievement whether im playing with Jank or being as spikey as possible.

As for changing formats for good... I dont Care for EDH/Multiplayer... i know im in the minority but it just doesnt jive with me... Pauper is just nuts; commons or not that is a super powerful format that outside of burn has quite a big learning curve...Pioneer feels like playing Arena/explorer to me....there is room to brew there like I have been with See the Truth control.... but just like modern the wins just dont come easy and Tier decks are just Tier decks for a reason.

• TL;DR

Just keep the faith! you are valid in your frustrations but if your willing to open up you will see that the Magic is still there.

I am looking to brew something looking a lot like this... My thoughts are to have synergy with Consider, Mission Briefing and See the Truth.

Ahh yes my bad on suggesting Mishra's Bauble - forgot about the cmc relevance.

Gaea's Will + See the Truth is just a really round-about way of cascading into Ancestral Vision instead. In any case, using Gaea's Will like this is a lot of hoops to jump through for a fairly sub-optimal payoff (especially so as the cards your drawing aren't going to particularly help progress your boardstate/win-condition).

I think your primary goal should be to include some cards into the deck that can actually help you win the game - whether that be some kind of combo-piece, or a threatening creature like Tolarian Terror. And then build the rest of your deck to accommodate that. At the moment your decks biggest weakness is its inability to threaten and actually defeat an opponent.

See the Truth is a good one of because you can tutor it to the yard with grave and then recast it from the yard and draw 3

Nice! I always like seeing decks for the Ikoria apex beasts. They're just so... commander-y, you know?

See the Truth basically acts just like Ancestral Recall in Vadrok decks. Definitely worth checking out!

InnocentAu You need to have one of the draw effects in play or a second Vadrok, Apex of Thunder in your mutate pile which then allows you to cast See the Truth from the graveyard, this combo is non-deterministic and can "fizzle" but you should draw into plenty of mutate cards as each one can be paid for with mana from a single Open the Omenpaths

Hey there!

I love this deck, and the PO archetype as a whole, its so fast and resilient. I have deck of my own that I am testing and tuning right now, and I would appreciate any suggestions you have:

The One Who Mentored Them All

I was wondering what you think about See the Truth ? It gets one less card than Night's Whisper , but digs deeper, and that 2 life can be relevant when you get rolling with Bolas's Citadel . Not to mention the fact that you will get all three cards fairly frequently via the Citadel or Will . Whisper is more consistent though, so there's really no wrong answer there.

Cheers :)

It's probably the same deck! The only real difference is the inclusion of the draw spells, mainly See the Truth , and Deliberate over Thrill of Possibility .

I got the list from someone I played in the play queue on Arena, then made a few edits like Deliberate > Thrill (you don't really need help discarding Open). They probably got it from LVD, if I had to guess.
