Modern, edh, standard?

Competitive, casual, both?

You want to draw first or play first?

abstractApathist

Modern, I'll play.

Competitive (I'll use a pod deck).

Hey. I can't start now unfortunately, but if you are ok for a sort of drawn out game, I have a home brew I've been wanting to try.

Ieatfood7

If you would rather play against a tested modern deck, I saw a couple lists online I wanted to try that look well tested.

Ieatfood7

Ok. Playing my home Bree which I call "modern slivers? Seriously?"

Muligan to six. {windswept hearth}. Sac to fetch {temple harder} untapped. Play {giraxian probe for free. Tap land to play {sidewinder sliver}. Pass.

15/5

{Windswept Heath} is not modern legal...

Ieatfood7

Ok. I am super embarrassed. I don't ever play modern in the real world, hence not having a well tuned deck on hand, so I a wasnt thinking when I typed up the deck lost online. I checked and the only non-modern cards in my list are {windswept Heath} x4 and {wooded foothills} x4

Three options: 

One, we keep playing, when I draw eithe rod those cards, I instead draw {salt flats} or {misty rainforest} or whatever, this is a WGR deck, so removing those eight old cards and adding two each of the UR, UG, WB, and BG works with almost no change to gameplay (this time for example, I preferred the WG shock land, but I will assume the "worst" and instead draw the UR fetch, and I will get {sacred foundry} instead of {temple garden}.

Two: I fix my deck and reshuffle

Three: I use a different list that I saw online last week.

Which do you prefer?  Sorry again. :/

abstractApathist

Don't worry about it, it happens. :)

I vote replace them with {marsh flats} & {misty rainforest} (or whatever you want to) and reshuffle

Ieatfood7

Ok, I did that and I'll keep (though maybe I shouldn't).

Draw. {giraxian probe} for free. {verdant catacombs}. Crack the fetch land and get a forest. Cast {virulent sliver}. Pass.

17/6. What's in your hand?
