Yeah I think Tokens is going to make a strong appearance so you need ways to interact with the enchantments.

I tweaked my black/red aggro a bit after yesterday's PPTQ. I'm not convinced the deck is great but it's what I have so I'm going to give it another shot. Surprisingly, my temur matchup is decent and I can reliably beat control although I have no real answers to scarab god. My toughest match up was against Red/Green Dinos which is why I switched into this more artifact centered deck with Unlicensed. The sideboard is all wrong right now and I need to figure out how to make it better.

Took the tweaked deck to another PPTQ yesterday and finally won!
It was my first ever PPTQ win and I'm really liking the deck now. The matchup vs Temur Energy is great and Blue/Black isn't terrible. I only struggled against a Grixis Tezeret deck because of all the easy chump blockers into Scarab God. Even then, I was a bolt away from winning game 3.

There is a mono black monument deck that Seth played recently and went 5-0 with. It actually looks decent in the meta and plays like aristocrats although i would make a couple changes.

ah, I've seen way more old border promo cards than old border non-promo foils, so in my mind, I see the little shooting star logo in the corner and I just think "oh that's a promo"

So I'm friends with gaby spartz irl. She used to be a pretty big grinder here in Chicago. And she posted that video and Kibler commented on it and was like one of my greatest regrets in life is not wearing a better fitting jacket in that video. Lolz.

so most of a contraption has been spoiled and someone put them together:
looks like you get to attach each contraption to a particular sprocket, and they activate every three turns. maybe there'll be contraptions with some synergy so you'll be incentivized to not put them all on the same sprocket

I have most of the expensive cards from this deck (Lands) so I figured why not build it in case I need to play in a Modern event. Is it decent?
