4x {abrupt decay}
4x {serum visions}
4x {mana leak}
4x {Thoughtseize}
4x {inquisition of kozilek}
3x {maelstrom pulse}
2x {ashiok, nightmare weaver}
2x {cryptic command}
1x {jace, architect of thought}
3x {damnation}
31 other spells


4x {snapcaster Mage}
1x {tasigur, the golden fang}
5 creatures

4x {nephalia drownyard}
4x {polluted delta}
4x {verdant catacombs}
3x {misty rainforest}
4x {breeding pool}
3x {watery grave}
2x {twilight mire}
24 lands


I had some free time in my study hall and threw this together. I want drownyard to be the main win con. Tasi is here as a CA engine and as a good blocker. I kind of want to try clique in here.. Also I may be running too many fetches. I'll probably want the land in my deck more often than not. Some of them may get replaced by some filter lands.

I'm really no expert with modern but I think all the fetches, T-seizes, and shocks will damage you too much. {Urborg tomb of yawgmoth} is good with fetches (you can still get mana for them) and I might run a couple of basics, too. 4 drownyards seems like a lot, since you need 4 lands to use it and it only taps for gray.

I would do:
-1 drownyard
-1 verdant catacombs
-1 Polluted Delta
+1 Urborg
+1 Island
+1 Forest

Also, out of curiosity, how playable do you think Ashiok will be modern?

Skullguy725

Oh, and -2 {Twilight mire} and +1 {Sunken ruins}, +1 {Flooded grove} so you can get {U} for the commands

DROWNYARD IS BAD WILL. GET OVER IT. PLAY THRAGTUSK AND GOYF. GERRARD FABIANO IS BETTER AT BUILDING MODERN DECKS THAN YOU.

Yeah, well Goyf = $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I honestly kinda like this. {Damnation}, {Nephalia Drownyard}, and {Cryptic Command} are three of my favorite cards. I feel like 4/4 on {Thoughtseize}/{Inquisition of Kozilek} is a bit overboard. I think I'd drop to 3/3. Maybe add in 2 {Murderous Cut}?  With as prevalent as {Blood Moon} is, I'd throw basics in there. One {Blood Moon} and it's GG for you.

Just for shits and giggles, might as well jam my other favorite card in there and get a {Tamiyo, the Moon Sage} in here 😜

Milling 3 cards translates the same as dealing 1 damage.  Do you see people designing decks around {shivan gorge} as a win con?

Math behind logic is below.
3÷60=.05
.05×20= 1

Well that would be true if your opponent never drew cards. They draw 1 per turn plus their opening (probably 6-7 but maybe lower). Not saying it's good just saying it's not as bad as gorge

I think pretty playable. She steals some pretty sick stuff, rhino, goyf, tasi if you can get the loyalty up all the way. Sadly I might cut her or SB her because she's REALLY bad against twin and affinity.
