Hive Mind, The Musical!

60 cards, 0 sideboard


8 {Island}
4 {Breeding Pool}
8 {Forest}

20 lands


3 {Birds of Paradise}
4 {Arbor Elf}

7 creatures


4 {Utopia Sprawl}
4 {Summoner's Pact}
4 {Gitaxian Probe}
3 {Intervention Pact}
4 {Slaughter Pact}
3 {Simic Signet}
4 {Hive Mind}
3 {Pact of Negation}
4 {Pact of the Titan}

33 other spells


Sideboard
4 {Fog}


Notes:
The point of the deck is to ramp into {Hive Mind} then drop a pact card I know the opponent can't pay for.... They lose 'cause they can't pay for it. I get t3 hive mind then kill them with a pact. Its stupid and jenky yet incredibly fun

{burd of paradise} over lanoqsr elf

I say make room for {gitaxian probe} and perhaps other cantrips to get to your crucial combo piece faster, without it you cant do much of anythig

{serum visions} may also deserve a spot, though gitaxian is better because its free-er

MisterJH

How much does this build cost? And you should update it with fetchlands and {birds of paradise} and other more expensive cards and tell us the cost f that too, assuming you wanted to make it as competitive as possible

Why would I fill it with expensive cards? Theres no point to that. It works incredibly well the way it is. Its like buying a minivan brand new then saying it needs more fire coming out of the front so you buy a flamethrower for it. Its just unnecessary. At this point the only thing I'd change out would be the llanowar elves for birds of paradise but otherwise it works pretty much perfectly. Also the total build cost is almost exactly 100 USD

Find this really glassy. First off only 4 win cons. When you want to win turn 3 you only get 10 cards. And law of average is 1 of 15 so five games you will not get to it out of 15. Next not enough lands when you need a land drop every turn. I would suggest dropping a few pacts to add land and a tutors.

Also I would SB some type of  {Regrowth} ( I know that's not modern but something similar).


MisterJH

Well you could add fetched and {gitaxian probe} to greatly increase chances of hitting all your combo pieces, so i think itd be worth it

Also addig a {sol ring} and other mana rocks like that would benefitthis deck as well

It may work really well im just saying for people who dont mind spendig a ton on mtg it could be made more consistent for a lot more money, i just was wondering how much more

True. But unhelpful

MisterJH

Well yea but Dstyle made a kinda silly comment lol, uhhh.. Idk i think theres probaby better ramp than the signet though.. I have no extensive knowledge of modern however
