I started building a modern deck with the one shakiest quickest jankiest win conditions. The idea of the deck is to show 4 chancellors of the dross, then remove the chancellors from the game to use soul spike opening hand.
As I was looking through, for cards to add in, I realized that most of what I'm playing is FREE. I did some research into this deck type and found myself to be in SuiBlack. Now all I could really find where vintage or legacy or even casual decks, to study. My question is with this deck I've posted...How would I play Suicide Black in modern?
I am quite new to this format. The last deck I played was Restore Balance/gargadon, then my friend built. Here is what I have so far. It's only slightly incomplete http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/bleed-for-me-04-12-13-1/

check it out, I built a more traditional Suicide Black deck for modern. It actually does surprisingly well.

I would strongly recommend adding green or red (green would be better) so that your deck is better equipped to deal with the variety of threats in Modern.
Red gives you Terminate , Dreadbore , rakdos return and other such things. None of which are particularly great in Modern. Lightning Bolt would be great though.
Green gives you Abrupt Decay , Maelstrom Pulse and Deathrite Shaman , all of which are staples in modern. You also get Verdant Catacombs , which can fetch whatever you need.
It sounds like you mostly want to have fun with this, and don't particularly care about winning or losing. Which that in mind, Phyrexian Obliterator is a very fun card and would help you fill out the middle of your curve a little more.
