Hey guys, this Saturday is modern down at Glens, was hoping we could get enough players to actually play. Modern is a great format but it’s an expensive format for new players to play, basically we need the players who have access to the cards to start a strong player base and establish a meta game. Without this the format dies before it began.

I’ll be there playing Boris twin
Monty has cooked up some eggs to flip
I think Craig was going to run the luck sack.

But yeah it would be good to have you..

This is the version of Solar Flare I’ve been working on with Damien and Steve and that I’m currently looking at playing next week in Bribane. I was thinking main deck crusaders, but the metagame from the SCG open this weekend seems to have shifted more to control, or at least less red/white aggro.

Other cards I am considering and planing to test more are Ponder, Mental Misstep and Azure Mage.

.:In response to Tucky’s crazy list:.

I loved the idea you proposed I tuned and tweaked the list a bit and came up with the following, main inclusion was titan cos he’s massive and is a mana sink for the late rituals, the Chandras allow you to copy a brimstone volley for 10 to the face, always good, the volleys themselves are so good with this deck. the signal pests are early guys to be sacced but also allow for the other dorks to do something if the situation arises, I added the gambits for smoothing and Chandra 😀 plus birds allows you to not always pay the life
