Title: Getting into modern...help?
Post by: Hunteroffire9 on July 31, 2014, 10:36:14 PM
So pretty soon I want to invest into a 100-150 dollar modern deck, so here are the choices I want to do:

Mono red burn

Mono black infect/control

Black white tokens:

Without the 4x marsh flats


So, I think the burn is the most completive but not sure. Mono black would be most fun. I could build the token deck for the cheapest because of the cards I have. Opinions? I want to know in what order you think would be the most competitive or which one. I've tested mono black on untap.in and it destroyes infect, burn, and can disrupt combo, etc.

I think tokens is probably the best out of the three, but it has a lot to do with what your play style is.

I think that if you went burn you could add either white or black without any money issues

Mono red burn is the best. I didnt see that list, but run 4 Eidolon of the Great Revel.

I think you guys are under estimating the power of MBC, I want the token deck to be good, but it just looks like a standard deck to me.

And please look at the lists xD

Mbc looks rather weak to me and I'd say tokens just bc there's room to grow with it. RDW/Burn is a solid deck that gets great finishes but do you really wanna be THAT guy?

So I think I want to go with the tokens..! I can build the deck for 80 dollars without the fetch lands;)
