Probably the best Modern deck around. Beats nearly every matchup sans aggro. Even then it hangs very well.

I saw Shouta beat Finkel with playing that deck.

Kind of why I put it up here. To give ppl an new idea; something different. Also this deck did really good against zoo, jund, RUG Delver, affinity and UW aggro that Finkel was playing. So it does really well against aggressive decks and tempo. The other card choses he made do well against combo as well (ie.{cryptic command})

Finkel is such an amazing player because you can never say he cheated. He is a victim of bad luck, and bad luck only.

His deck could've beaten Shouta, but Shouta was luckier then Finkel that day. Shouta's long game was so unbelievably impressive, it was a battle of wits.

Given the outcome, I don't know if Shouta's modern deck was better, but was more consistent in a 1v1 that day. Given 100 games (hypothetically) Finkel would've won 54-46

I agree. Just putting it out there that it does well against aggro decks. I like {U} control decks. So it's nice to see one do good.
