Trinisphere
Artifact
As long as this is untapped, each spell that would cost less than three mana to cast costs three mana to cast. (Additional mana in the cost may be paid with any colour of mana or colourless mana. For example, a spell that would cost to cast costs to cast instead.)

Grand Arbiter's Grand Return
3 months ago
LOL UBA MASK! Haha solid, I think either way you take it, this is a really well oiled deck already. You can tell the love is there. Helm plus Arbiter is funny but does it win outside of just generating mega value? I mean I guess I would scoop after my spells cost 3 or more lol. However, might I offer a couple more pieces of juice?...
Trinisphere, Omen Machine, Maze of Ith (to ward of those would-be voltroniers).

Ya, I saw he said where he was saying that, but posting a decklist suggests he was into the challenge. He can always decline and/or delete the decklist after he completes the challenge. Cards that I was thinking of Trinisphere, Fecundity, Jaya's Immolating Inferno.

Yes.
When you pay 1 life and exile a blue card to Force of Will, you aren't bypassing the cost, you're paying an alternative cost. The new cost to cast the spell is "pay 1 life and exile a blue card from your hand." Tax Collector's effect will add a mana to that total cost you pay.
The difference between this effect and Trinisphere is that Trinisphere will add whatever amount of mana increase that brings the cost up to 3. It will increase the cost to cast Force of Will to 1 life, exiling a blue card, and paying because the casting cost being paid didn't have any mana. On the other hand, if Force of Will were cast for its mana cost, Trinisphere would do nothing since it already costs at least , but Tax Collector would still increase the cost from to .
Tax Collector also isn't symmetrical, while Trinisphere is, so in the second case you'd have to pay to cast that Opt.

If I cast Tax Collector and elect the mode to make my opponent's spells cost an additional generic mana, if I then cast a Opt and my opponent responds with a Force of Will, would they have to pay the additional ? What's the difference between this effect and Trinisphere?

It's basically a smaller Nekusar, the Mindrazer except everyone draws at the same time. At the risk of brining EDH into a Modern discussion, that's where I would start.
Out of Windfall, Jace's Archivist, and Whispering Madness, none of them are high-tier Modern-legal cards, but they would make a nice bridge between Scrawler and the Waste Not effects. Maybe Dark Deal?
Forcefeed Prison: Blood Moon, Fevered Visions, Damping Sphere, Trinisphere, maybe Rule of Law + Ebony Owl Netsuke. That's a lot of 3-cost cards, but there might be something there.
Stormfist Crusader adds a little bit of redundancy, and is an evasive attacker, if that matters.
I see this mostly working in some combination of , , and . Since the Windfall effects aren't great, I think I would take the Forcefeed Prison approach. Stack Scrawler with Sheoldred and Bowmasters, then find ways to make people draw lots of cards without casting spells. Lots of damage, lots of control, but lots of competition for precious deck slots.

Holy schnikes... I missed the Workshop first look thru! No playset of stax taxes? Trinisphere etc.
Mystic Speculation reusable top deck. Easy to abuse in a deck full of rocks.
Muddle the Mixture and Clutch of the Undercity your win conditions are 2 and 4. This is removal that is also tutor.

Manifest the Deadly Disguise

To dylan.575:
Kaust is definitely a commander that screams, “I’m working harder to do my thing than you are.” Yes, the draw of Kaust is the surprise element. There is nothing better than an opponent using panic removal on a manifested land. However, Kaust’s problem is that he supports a draft mechanic. As well, Sultai, particularly and , have more impactful morph creatures. However, there should be more resources as Magic will return to Tarkir in 2025. As well, I’m hoping that Disguise will be an evergreen mechanic. For me, this deck needs more ways to manifest and cloak. Ugin's Mastery, Veiled Ascension, and Mastery of the Unseen pull plenty of weight for me. Though it isn’t a permanent, Hide in Plain Sight is too good to not play.
You are 100% correct on your assessment for instants and sorceries. My build really wants to manifest and cloak the top card, which makes these two cards types even worse. Because of that, I use permanent types that do similar things to the instants and sorceries that were previously in the deck. The thing I found about Kaust, whether testing, playing, or research, is that Kaust has to make the gameplay experience “fair”. “Fair” for who? Fair for Kaust, and just Kaust. That means Kaust needs to slow down the game and shut off game elements he doesn’t utilize. The biggest change in success was shutting off ETB triggers. ETB triggers are simply too good. Almost every deck is playing a creature with ETB triggers, except Kaust for the most part. That isn’t fair and it shows. Torpor Orb, Hushbringer, and Doorkeeper Thrull are some of the best cards in the deck. You could add more Torpor Orb-effects, but I prefer these two because they have flying. You also notice that I’m playing some stax creatures, like Void Winnower and Yasharn, Implacable Earth. I'm gonna point out Yasharn because I don’t use any sacrifice elements outside of fetchlands. Though yahsarn’s ETB will be shut off, I will gladly pay that price to stop players from sacrificing treasures. I’m to the point where I want to add more stax elements to the deck. I agree with your assessment about “on attack” creatures, except for Phlage, Titan of Fire's Fury. Phlage has been great both with and without a Torpor Orb on the field.
Your version has cost reduction, which is something I should put back into the deck. I was using Trinisphere but it was just ok. I thought about putting in Hydra Omnivore and Kamahl, Heart of Krosa in my version. I had Silverback Elder and it ended up on my “maybe” list. I’d be careful of Helm of Awakening cause I won’t want to reduce cost for everyone. I’m an old school player but I’m moving away from the auto inclusion of Lightning Greaves and/or Swiftfoot Boots. I’m finding that lots of ramp acts as recursion and protection for decks. What is Dawn Charm doing for you? I cut Expose the Culprit for Teleportation Circle and I have no regrets. Your top end is good. I like the new Eldrazi support that I added to mine. Because my Kaust builds just makes tons of mana, I can just hard cast Eldrazi. Let’s keep helping each other to make Kaust great!
