Is {Detention Sphere} good enough for modern control?
If it is would it be better than {Oblivion Ring}
3 mana is a lot and if a control deck is going to tap out for something like that its probably for a Geist of St Traft or Clique. Control needs cheap removal at instant speed. And {path to exile} is also a thing

True but I'm thinking for a speed that hits nonland permanents. Bc I'm running paths already but unless I counter their PW its hard for me to remove
That's what it'd be of
I would say so as I've raced d-sphere in American control in modern on multiply occasions from different players
I've seen it show up. Pretty much just a u/w maelstrom pulse. Not bad. Not particularly great though
Abrupt decay though..
UW Control and Zur Enchantments are that only decks that use it. It is good enough for those decks.
And don't forget {Enduring Ideal}. I run both D-Sphere and Oblivion Ring in Ideal as a bit of Tool-Box removal.
