Some ideas? I want play it in modern tournaments.
I would try to get a {Mox Opal} but I think that I don't go to get it, so I think that I have the problem in the few artifacts and dmg spells (artifact lands of mirrodin are prohibited in modern, so I get out some dmg spells for put in some artifacts).
What do you think about this?

Maybe the {Porcelain Legionnaire} for {Runechanter's Pike} and a {Lightning Bolt} for a {Banefire}. Is it alright?

PD: Please help, ideas, opinions, problems... :S

More {Shrapnel Blast}

Alpha · January 29, 2012, 05:42:02 PM

I removed 2 of them and a lightning bolt for put in 3 {Fling}s, with {Atog} and {Cranial Plating} is more dangerous than Shrapnel Blast. But what would u get out for more Shrapnel Blasts?

Just some of my thoughts.

-4 perilous myr
-3 fling
+2 mox opal
+1 memnite
+1 ornithopter
+2 soul's fire
+1 lightning bolt

Ford use curly brackets for link the cards, and respect the cards: Problem, I only have a {Mox Opal} so less mana, so I think is better fling than {Soul's Fire} (but I'm thinking in it). Otherway I use the {Perilous Myr} with {Shrapnel Blast} and with fling if it has equipped {Cranial Plating}.

I'm sorry no disrespect intended. I have played modern affinity before and {soul's fire} was an all-star. While fling can end games the same way you are not as annoyed by counter magic.

Sorry if I didn't explain me well (I've a wrong English) but I didn't be disgusted. I want that you give me ideas because its the deck I go to use in modern tournaments and I expect make a good deck but I don't have lot of money to expense in it.
The problem of the soul's fire is that cost one more mana and I was testing this deck before and I some times must play with only 2 manas and I use fling for the finally hit.
