LGS is doing modern this week. I just moved so I don't even have all my cards but I do have the option of green eldrazi or standard land destruction, but I don't know anything about modern meta game, suggestions on which to play would be awesome!

I would suggest Eldrazzi but only if you can ramp them fast.

I have a modern exalted deck that pops turn 4 so, keep that in mind.

5 mana on turn 2 summoning trap turn 3 hard cast  {Emrakul, the Aeons Torn} turn 5-6

a fast infect deck is pretty easy to do. also possible turn 3 or 4 wins.

Almost all my cards are in shipping, won't see them for a while. The decks I have I brought with me or built with new set.

If you can dump  {Emrakul, the Aeons Torn} turn 5 you should be fine, I'd have a fog to play just in case.

Have it in side board

Affinity...;) or Modern combo elves...;) The second one is quite cheap.

I love Elves! Lately my deck of choice table top is a modern combo elf using mana ramps to just vomit your hand, Yeva  {Yeva, Nature's Herald} giving everything flash and  {Nissa Revane} for life gain, dropping Khalni  {Khalni Hydra} turn 2/3. People just look at me depressed, especially since my next drop is Primalcrux  {Primalcrux}. Turn 4 I'm dealing lethal damage. The Khalni/Primalcrux combo is just mean... Turn 4 your almost guaranteed a 13/13 Primal at least.

No one likes me when we play tabletop with that deck.

Mostly it is played a little different way but your build has definitely its own charm...;)

I play for fun so I rarely play that deck.

its also mostly commons so it would be relatively cheap to make

Hehe and he is not cheap??? :D :D

Edit: Mhmm but anyway even with playset of him u would be able to make infect for less than 350$... Jund or Zoo would cost at least double...;) maybe triple... If you would want to have it serious competetive...

That's what I was getting at haha.  Seems like the only expensive card for infect, though.
