I'm debating between the two.

If money doesn't matter, which has a better chance against an unknown meta?

I'd say wilted because I play it and it's super reliable, especially with hand disruption being such a big thing right now.

That's the thing though Wilted Abzan is a meta call deck it's a deck built to beat BGx and hand disruption.

For raw power I'd go Jund over all 3 personally

I meant money is no hindrance between the two, as its marginal. I don't want to buy goyfs and lilis :P.

I was talking to my modern guru friend, and he thinks coco is just a higher power level and wilted is a meta call.

Is coco abzan the melira combo deck? If so I've got to say the power level is practically the same when you play against it with wilted abzan. There is a guy that works at my lgs, and every modern tourney I've played in he's been there with his melira company and I always place higher than him when I play wilted. His list is solid and he's real fun to play against, but wilted has resilience.

I think they cut 2 of the melira in favor of new anafenza. She's pretty sweet in terms of value, and does the same thing for the combo

A lot of people run only 1-2 melira and 3-4 Anafenza since she is more powerful. The guy at my lgs sides in 2 when he plays against infect.

Coco abzan is a miles better deck. Wilted abzan has completely fallen off the meta d abzan decks because of it. Coco has the ability to play a fair Aggro game with townships and with disruption or even win out of no where  with the combo. It has more disruption vs every deck post board with the silver bullet package and can destroy decks trying to play a fair game. Coco is now the go to abzan archetype considering the best midrange deck now is jund.

Most people are saying wilted over on Reddit. I think I'll build that and wait for a homogenized coco list.
