How to Beat Fair Aggro Decks
Modern forum

My deck can tutor for artifacts that cost either less than or equal to one, or six or greater. by using Trinket Mage and Treasure Mage
I can also use Reshape
and two mana spells with Muddle the Mixture
My question is what are the best cards to Stifle (ba dum tisk) aggro decks in Modern?
so far I am running Ratchet Bomb as a one of in the main board, a single ensaring bridgeand a post board Eternity Vessel
What else would you suggest?

Against Zoo, Tron (while not Aggro), Burn, and Red Deck Wins, Chalice of the Void set at one seems to help.
Really the best way to beat Aggro is to out tempo them with Lifegain, especially if you have a midrange strategy. Anything with Lifelink or that ETB and gains life at an effective CMC is worthwhile.

Vapor Snag if played at the right time can also cripple aggro. snagging a creatures after Ghor-Clan Rampager is a simple 2-1 while setting them back a turn while they recast the bounced creature.

since this is mono blue, and with big artifacts, that means you have ramp right? Cyclonic Rift seems like it would be good. also, Wurmcoil Engine on turn 3 if you are using urza's lands, the lifegain is superb and can kill small creatures and big creatures such as Tarmogoyf .
Evacuation , Inundate , Whelming Wave should also work.
