Modern Monday – B/R Eldrazi

Last we took a look at an awesome Jund list that included the powerful combo of and that did fairly well at Grand Prix Dallas. This week we’re going to be looking at another Grand Prix Dallas decklist, courtesy of my Pro Tour Kaladesh teammate Cody Lingelbach. The deck is actually unlike anything I’ve seen…

Modern Monday – Madcap Jund

This past weekend was Grand Prix Dallas, and the format was pleasantly Modern. I say pleasantly because I’ve always been a fan of Modern, but we don’t get many Modern events nowadays and a lot of people feel that the format is somehow “broken.” As someone who plays a good deal of Modern, I don’t…

Modern Monday – Knightfall

Welcome back! The deck we’re taking a look at today isn’t necessarily a new one. It’s also a deck that I was almost positive I had played before in a previous Modern Monday, but alas, I was incorrect. We’re of course talking about the / deck, often dubbed Knightfall. The deck basically acts as a…

Modern Monday – Azusa Amulet

It feels like I’ve been running out of decks to write about for Modern Monday recently, but I have high hopes that some of the sweet tools from Kaladesh will slowly rear their heads in the format. Until then I’ve chosen to revisit an old staple of the Modern format that has lost a part…

Modern Monday – U/R Turns

For those of you who have followed Modern Monday for the past two or so years it’s been a thing, you might be familiar with the Takin’ Turns deck I piloted that was hugely popular. Well this week we’re looking at a deck that is incredibly similar, with some very noticeable differences. The deck in…

Modern Monday – Mono-Blue Delver

Apologies for the delay with Modern Monday this week. I was in Florida this past weekend visiting friends and family and I ended up getting a little sick. Instead of regaling all of you with my coughing and sniffling in the videos, I decided to postpone things to minimize the suffering you would have to…

Modern Monday – Eldrazi Tron

It’s no secret that Tron is perhaps my arch nemesis in terms of Modern decks. I regularly bemoan my luck when my opponent manages to land a turn three into a turn four . Or perhaps I’m bemoaning their luck. Either way, there’s a lot of bemoaning going on, because that’s a pretty ridiculous one-two…

Modern Monday – 8 Rack

Apologies for the delay of Modern Monday this week! I was in Portland attending a wedding with my good friend Justin Vickers. We might as well start calling Modern Monday something like “Modern Random Day of the Week” if this keeps up, but I’m not sure you guys actually mind the delay. Either way, this…

Modern Monday – Five-Color Creatures

If I recall correctly, it’s been about two years since I last played a deck that was mostly “all creatures.” In fact, I think the last version of the deck I played was in fact all creatures aside from the lands. This version, piloted by Stelle101 to a 5-0 finish, is a little different. The…

Modern Monday – Nahiri Mardu

Welcome back for another Modern Monday…on, uh, Wednesday! Apologies for this week’s delay, but we were off at PAX West working with Bethesda and Elder Scrolls: Legends (which you should definitely check out and play). As you may or may not know, one thing I consistently search for in Modern is a decent Mardu deck….
