Notes:
A list Kaalia with haste had mentioned that I loved so I'm building it and thought I'd post the list on here. It placed 16th at the GP Oklahoma.

I did tweak the fetches to what I had. Currently have no verdant catacombs

Kaalia with haste

It actually got 14th :). I said it top 16'd. This deck is soooo sweet. I want to build it but verdant catacombs...

Yes verdant catacombs 😔 I'm still gonna buy them probably with my next paycheck tho. Lol dropped a bill on the marsh flats so I need to hold off on the catacombs lol

Kaalia with haste

.poo. just realized this play 4 flats. I only own 3 (the fourth one in my modern deck is being borrowed). I might try to buy into this but I don't own voices.

Well actually, the list ran in Oklahoma ran 3 flats and 3 catacombs

Edit: I also bought the voices with the marsh flats 🙈 I used to have them but thought I'd never use em again whenever I traded off my wilt leaf liege deck but I was sorely mistaken lol

Instead of Teysa, what do yall think about {Lilianna defiant necromancer}?

Nathan Holiday of ChannelFireball played this list on twitch. Looked sweet there's a lot of cool things you can do. My fav was: play {Tidehollow Skuller} response to first trigger sac it to whatever. Then the card is exiled forever!! I liked that play bc I didn't know that's how it worked

Codester1991

I didn't know that's how it worked either it's super sweet lol I've been playing it on untap.in for a few days now. I've been really liking it

Ran this last night and loved it. thinking about throwing in two {Grim Haruspex} or a single {Smothering Abomination}. Favorite play of the night tho was

Rally for 3
Brings back 9 creatures including 3 voyaging satyrs, 1 eternal witness, 3 doomed traveler.
Use the satyrs mill effect on the stack to put a return to the ranks in the grave from my deck, proceed to use witness to return it to my hand, then convoke with creatures that came back to return the ranks the other 8 creatures I was able to put in the grave with the satyrs. Then proceeded to sac and kill them with 2 blood artists and a zulaport cutthroat on the board.

Only lost twice. Once in the pre rounds to anafenza combo, then in the top 4 to anafenza combo again same deck although both games were extremely close. So I decided to throw anafenza the foremost in the sideboard for that situation next time.

Just so you know, that wasn't a legal play.
Witness' ability can't go on the stack without a target, and Wayfinder's trigger can't resolve before Witness' trigger goes on the stack.
