First FNM Changes —March 4, 2019
Mainboard:
-1 Wasteland Strangler
+1 Matter Reshaper
Finally played my first modern event and went 3-1 (yay). I feel as though the deck has enough removal already and I feel like it should have more turn 3 options if I don't need to hold up mana. Matter Reshaper is a really good card as it replaces itself on death but I still want to run Wasteland Strangler because of the synergy this deck has with Tidehollow as well as with suspended cards.
Sideboard:
-2 Timely Reinforcements
-2 Fragmentize
+2 Runed Halo
+2 Disenchant
Timely Reinforcements only helps vs burn (and I guess zoo?) but other than that I feel as though I didn't need to run it as I have enough removal spells to fight against fast creature-based decks (plus Blessed Alliance helps too). I replaced Timely for a runed halo so I can board better vs more matchups. Changing Fragmentize to a Disenchant simply because Fragmentize misses a lot of cards while Disenchant hits them all on top of being instant speed.
Notes:
Still want to play with Kaya, Orzhov Usurper, RIP, more blight herders, etc. But I think that would mean a big change to the deck so I'll leave it be for now. I feel like Kaya will come in sooner or later tho haha. Sorin is an absolute beast in this deck. I am thinking about running another copy of him but he kinda sucks by himself lol. Warping Wail is amazing, at worst its ramp but it can win games when the opponent isn't expecting a counterspell.
I'm not sure why you are running Sorin in this deck. With how much you are filling exile I would put Kaya, Orzhov Usurper in. maybe only run 2 but I've seen her be an absolute engine.

zapyourtumor I was thinking about more Blight Herder because of the bodies you get on the board with just 5 mana (3 lands potentially!) as well as gaining colorless mana when a blood moon is out is always good (or when you just miss those colorless land drops, which has happened in my testing :/). Although it kinda fights for the 5 cmc slot and I really like Reality Smasher so i'll play around with that.
NKlim I run Sorin to offset the lifeloss in this deck from the lands and Thoughtseize . He also works well with Lingering Souls for better blocks and overall more lifegain. I really like Kaya, Orzhov Usurper ! I have given it some thought about adding her to this deck but I can't figure out what to cut lol
Thanks for the suggestions!

In all honesty, you're feeding the exile zone enough that you could have more processor action. Also, more would be useful so you could put cards exiled with tidehollow sculler into the graveyard.
