1st Place FNM —Feb. 5, 2014
Went to my first FNM on a modern night and got first place! My deck is a little weak to control (counterspell a ramp card early and it ruins my flow) or a quick discard (Thoughtsieze a ramp card and it ruins my flow) but every time they tried to remove what I needed I just kept drawing around it for a different win condition.
I actually was very surprised I was able to get around most of the modern staples (Tarmogoyf, Thoughtsieze, etc)

Sporq Yeah I have Sarkhan Vol for the haste trigger, it may be 1 more to play than the hammer. I like the idea of Static Orb , I then looked around and found Winter Orb and that could work as well... but I have to see if either are modern legal.

I love the look of this deck almost as much as I love tokens! Boil looks like a step in the right direction for hurting control players. And I think the previously suggested Hammer of Purphoros Would be more useful for its haste ability, than token generation, though I doubt it's really necessary here at all. I really don't think it's still in modern, but Static Orb could lock down the board for you pretty easily once you get your plainswalkers out, since they generate the bulk of your tokens, and don't tap to do things.
