Here's what I'm playing at the Milwaukee premier IQ this weekend:

BW tokens

2 {sorin, solemn visitor}
1 {elspeth, knight-errant}
1 {liliana of the veil}
4 planeswalkers

4 {inquisition of kozilek}
3 {Thoughtseize}
7 discard spells

4 {lingering souls}
4 {spectral procession}
4 {bitterblossom}
2 {timely reinforcements}
14 token generation spells

4 {path to exile}
2 {dismember}
6 removal spells

4 {intangible virtue}
1 {zealous persecution}
5 Random anthems

4 {marsh flats}
4 {windswept Heath}
4 {godless shrine}
3 {isolated chapel}
2 {windbrisk heights}
1 {vault of the archangel}
2 {fetid Heath}
3 {plains}
1 {swamp}
24 lands


Sideboard
1 {deathmark}
3 {stony silence}
2 {kor firewalker}
1 {blood baron of vizkopa}
1 {rest in peace}
1 {disfigure}
1 {zealous persecution}
1 {timely reinforcements}
1 {wrath of god}
2 {ghostly prison}
1 {suppression field}

Thoughts/criticisms on this version over my last one? I cut green so I could realistically cast liliana


My only goal is to be able to have someone let my suppression field resolve when they have at least one fetchland on board

I thought you didn't like bitterblossom?
I played with that card and the amount of ass it kicked forced me to change my opinion. I was super wrong

Top 8'd with this deck! Punted hard game 3 in round one of top 8 though.

Edit: picked up some fetid heaths for $9 a piece and tossed those in the deck which was nice to have, but that's the only difference.

I played against:

Esper mill 2-1
Naya burn 2-1
RG tron 2-0
Suicide zoo 2-1
Grixis w/ lingering souls 2-1
Naya Burn 2-1
Intentional Draw
Intentional Draw

Top 8
1-2 to emeria control

Thanks! Really proud. I've played versions of tokens almost exclusively for about 5-6 months now and I'm pretty pumped I was able to do well at an event.

Nice XD but as a tron player I have to ask how you beat him 2-0?

Game one had an inquisition and saw a platinum angel (weird inclusion) and other redundant tron cards and an O stone. I took one of the tron finding things to make him have it a turn later. I didn't have a way to kill platinum angel so I had to take a risky line, I wanted to bluff a kill spell for the platinum angel by just not playing lands and attacking him. I attacked for "lethal" and he blew his oblivion stone to not die to any removal spell in my hand (it was 4 lands bitterblossom and I played a bitterblossom and drew a path the turn after he played wurmcoil.
Game 2 my opponent led on urza's land chromatic something, I opened on land barren ton forge tender. He cracked his egg, missed his land drop and played another egg. I played stony silence and he wasn't able to do a whole lot for turns 3-5 but found a grove to cast sylvan scrying and is now one tron land short of assembling it. He plays the tron land I knew about and passed. I attacked with some of the spirits I had again and he untapped, played a new tron land and cast wurmcoil but I had a path. He untapped with another wurmcoil but I had another path. I untapped and attacked for lethal.

Lol believe me I'm far from a pro. I drew well and played pretty well but I'm far from on the level of real pros. I believe a lot of it was the power level of my deck. The deck can just attack from a bunch of directions depending on the matchup.

On a slightly related note, what did you think of the Modern Event Deck as a tokens list? It's a little late to ask, I know, but I'd like to hear your opinion.
