First modern deck very stock stranded storm but I am loving it in testing would love to hear what players think of storm and any tips for how to play it and what to watch out for.

Thanks all.

I'm really liking the newer versions with the inclusion of young pyromancer. It gives it the deck a little more grind for later games and it makes winning on 3-4 much more viable compared to this version which looks like it sits around 4-5

 {Djinn Illuminatus} maybe?

I love {Young Pyromancer} he is in my stranded storm but when building a modern storm every time I added him The deck lost consistence if you can think of where he could fit I would love to hear cow I want to make him work long term he is awesome.

Have you considered {Blistercoil Weird} and {Paradise Mantle}?
Wow that is a cool combo will have to test thanks

Might want to consider {{Pact of Negation}} as a way to protect your combo.

Keep it the way it is in the first post. Run Desperate Ravings over Faithless Lootings though.

The game actually is consistent 3-4 if you play it right. Young Pyromancer is more of a control against card, or win more. The regular storm as a much better percentage against the current meta, even with a chance of a turn 2 win where as the second version is more turn 3-5 win with no chance of turn 2.

yeah I have tested both versions of the deck now and I like the one I posted better then the young strom.

Also why {Desperate Ravings} over {Faithless Looting}? I know ravings gives you a card where looting loses one but looting has control where ravings is random.

The graveyard is basically your second hand. Desperate Ravings is +1 and is easier to cast for a flashback cost if you need to refill you hand for cards like manamorphose and rituals, etc to go off.
