Notes:
I wanted to make this deck after my legacy affinity, but I have a banned card, so now it's casual.

Any reason why you're not using {blinkmoth nexus}, {inkmoth nexus}, or {cranial plating}?
wow... I totally forgot to put Cranial Plating in!!
The Nexus' I don't really feel I need... as the infect doesn't really do it for me... I have enough win con's to win. Tezzeret, Broodstar, Etched Champ...
though, Etched Champ + Cranial Plating = win.
I knew I forgot something! Thanks!
Or {darksteel citadel}?

You're a saint.
It's been a while since I re-put this together.
While we're at it, {glimmervoid} and {arcbound ravager}. I always wanted to make modern affinity, could never afford the mox opals and ravagers :(

Really? They're not very expensive. You could always trade for them?
Well, opals are still $35 each, although ravagers aren't that expensive, you're right. I think altogether, G(r) tron was still cheaper, which is why I went with that. Also, I don't think opals are that commonly found in trade binders on imtg :P
What is G(r) tron?
Urza lands, land tutors. eye of ugin, emrakul, karn, wurmcoils. Also ~12 board wipes and some eggs.
Is it some kind of deck? Or a name for a type of card?
If you're playing casual, you might as well put {Seat of the Synod} and {Vault of Whispers} in over basics...

Thanks, thought of that when Darksteel Citidel was recommended. So I'll put those in instead of Darksteel Citidel.

Tron's a general name for using the urza lands (tower, power plant, mine). G(r) tron aims to land karn liberated on turn 3-4 and disrupt for 3-5 more turns before it drops emrakul.
Yeah. I'm not aiming for any of that.
So after playtesting it a bunch, I've noticed I needed some removal.
What are everyone's suggestions?
I've used {Go For The Throat} in the past that worked well.
Any others that would be nice?
Perhaps I'd take out a copy of each sword, all the broodstars, and all the mox diamonds, and replace them with 4 lotus petal, 4 memnite, and 4 springleaf drum. Removal is best found in {galvanic blast} and {dispatch}. The point of the first modifications is that if you kill them fast enough, you don't have to worry about removal.

Like I said. I'm not making this competitive. I like long running games sometimes.
