Hi all, I am sharing today a list of a Modern deck which I made and piloted on last Sunday’s tournament. I made the deck in reference to the popular Maverick deck in Legacy, replacing most of the cards on what I can acquire in my Modern cards stash. Here is the list I’ve played:
GW Aggro ala Maverick
By Mark Ian Alloso
Modern Constructed Format
Lands
2 Stirring Wildwood
1 Horizon Canopy
4 Forest
4 Plains
2 Gavony Township
2 Sunpetal Grove
4 Razorverge Thicket
4 Temple Garden
Creatures
2 Gaddock Teeg
2 Thalia, Guardian of Thraben
4 Noble Hierarch
1 Sigarda, Host of Herons
3 Birds of Paradise
4 Qasali Pridemage
3 Paladin en-Vec
2 Dauntless Escort
2 Fiend Hunter
1 Baneslayer Angel
2 Restoration Angel
2 Loxodon Hierarch
Spells
2 Sword of Light and Shadow
3 Path to Exile
1 Oblivion Ring
2 Ajani, Caller of the Pride
1 Garruk Wildspeaker
Sideboard
SB: 2 Celestial Purge
SB: 3 Great Sable Stag
SB: 3 Leyline of Sanctity
SB: 1 Gaddock Teeg
SB: 1 Thalia, Guardian of Thraben
SB: 1 Tormod’s Crypt
SB: 2 Krosan Grip
SB: 1 Creeping Corrosion
SB: 1 Gleeful Sabotage
Initially made to combat Jund, the deck also performed well in beating UW Control and Mono Red. The sort of a bad matchup was Living End which I only have a Tormod’s Crypt to remove the graveyard, though I was able to win that one as well.
A few changes would be on variation of the Swords, removing Fiend Hunter, adding a fourth Path to Exile and adding Relic of Progenitus on the sideboard.
Let me know what you think of the deck. Hit the comments below.
Until next post!
