[MTG Modern] Cruel Control


Recommended Posts

Been testing this a ton over the last few weeks and will probably build it IRL in the foreseeable future. I really, really am enjoying this variant over the more aggressive Jace/Pia and Kiran Grixis, and it is fun making use of cards like Grave Titan and a sided Bribery. It is far from budget (scalding tarns and a playset of snaps are $$$) and isn't really the best deck of the format, but holy sheet this is fun. Resolving Cruel Ultimatum is what dreams are made of.

Give up on Hand disruption in this kind of build. It isn't helpful, and you're not even running Jace. Nice work on the landbase, though. It is pretty solid. Just short a land or 2.
