Can a casual deck be made into a modern deck???
depends on what the casual deck is. do you have a decklist?
Well, competitive modern has it's usual deck lists that top 8, such as Jund, USA, Melira Pod, Tron etc.
Could your casual deck be really good in modern if you spent tons of money on keeping the theme but switching for better cards? Sure. It wouldn't top 8 most likely (although I don't know your deck list), but it could be good :)

I disagree. Just because you don't net deck, doesn't mean it won't be top 8. Put the staple cArds but mix it up, and you'll do fine!

I guess I said my opinion wrong lol it's just that those decks have been really refined down to be the best they can be. Do I think adding staples with a custom deck list can top 8? Yes, they can. I suppose I meant more like, pro tour powerful
It really depends on how competitive you want it to be, cards you have access to, etc. Tons of cards are legal in the modern format
Yes. Wizards also needs to make cards that wreck the usual top 8 too

They did. And then they banned them. Example: {Deathrite Shaman}.
Deck 2a under my decks
I saw your 2a deck in the casual forums...it appears to be a limited prerelease deck. Perhaps it did well in limited but modern constructed is a whole different animal. In it's current form it would get murdered. Review the modern forum for competitive modern decks.

Is there a simple modern deck to build at low cost?

Affinity or infect I guess
Low cost and modern don't really go together.
Mine does. You should see my human modern deck

This. The cheapest deck I can think of is {Living End}, but even that really needs {fulminator mage}s.
Guess I'll stick with standard/casual for now but I enjoyed the input guys , my posted my decks are 40 card count so any input on making it stronger and making it 60 count . I would love hear ur thoughts
Pms always welcome 😊
I don't think the ladies enjoy PMS. (Just kidding!) We are all hear to help and learn from one another.
Isn't a Bogles deck cheap if you remove the Canopy and the Enchantment halo thing? Just replace them with easy to acquire stuff and you're good to go.
First things first.
I'd start here:

Bogle really needs {Daybreak Coronet}, though. It's the backbone of the deck.
Can u buy it or do I have to build it

Well both, there are no Modern preconstructed decks (currently). If you plan on buying the entire deck you definitely can, you'll just have to purchase each piece individually. Plan on spending about $200 though. Modern is a relatively expensive format to get into, but after the initial "down payment", you have a deck that will never rotate out, except for the occasional bannings.
You guys and gals are awesome thx for the great information
Good low cost modern deck would be 4{Blistercoil Weird}, 4{Paradise Mantle}, and 30 or so one drop draw a card instants. Also throw in a couple {Grapeshot}.

The problem with that deck is that it isn't nearly consistent enough to be competitice, and gets hosed by any kind of removal, which is really common. I recommend {Living End}. The only really expensive parts are {Fulminator Mage} and its namesake.
