Modern Help - Mardu

Deck Help forum

Yep here I am guys. Asking for some community thoughts about my pet deck A Place Where The Sun Is Silent which is a grindy midrange mardu deck with a token theme to maximize tempo over the opponent

Some thoughts I've been having include:

  • Bitterblossom replacing Tidehollow Sculler : this cuts down on my discard and removes the 2/2 body for extra fliers that can provide extra chump power or take over the game. Worth?

My sideboard :

Blood Moon or Aven Mindcensor?

I could adjust my mana accordingly but should I?

For reference, my 2 worst matchups appear to be bloomtitan and tron.


Please do not suggest anything pertaining to the aristocrats deck style

All about that deck link

Personally, I really like the Bitterblossom plan over the sculler. Like, he's good, but not really as attritiony as you seem to want to be. Maybe finding a source of recurring life gain to help balance it out would be ideal (basically means play more Vault of the Archangel).

I personally think that Wear / Tear is just better than Hide/Seek, and unless you really need the life injection, the cheaper option is better. Other than that, the side looks pretty solid for a generic meta. Maybe if you're looking for more room, cut the command for whatever else you'd need since the copies in the main are doing enough work (in theory of course).
