Modern - $15 40 Land Swan Hunt
Combo Jank
Seismic Swans
Today, we are talking about my first ever modern deck! It is an OTK deck that probably has fallen out of the meta recently with the release of Modern Horizons (Looking at you Force of Negation
and Hogaak, Arisen Necropolis
). So lets get right into it!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First, let me explain our combo. We need to have Swans of Bryn Argoll and Seismic Assault on our battlefield, with at least one land in our hand. We shock our Swans of Byrn Argoll by discarding a land from Seismic Assault, and then we draw 2 cards. Since we have 40 lands, we have a good chance do draw a land, and we could even draw 2. We keep doing this until we have enough lands in hand for lethal and kill them. This general goes off around turn 4.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Our supporting cards are just as important, and can win us the game. Lightning Strike
can let us shoot our opponent for the little amount we need to kill our opponent. It can also give us the card draw we need when we shoot our Swans of Bryn Argoll to find a Seismic Assault. Mnemonic Nexus
allows us to reshuffle the lands and other cards we need back into our library. Molten Disaster
is a good boardwipe as well. Molten Vortex
lets us have a bad version of Seismic Assault incase we don't draw it. Treasure Hunt lets us do a lot of card draw. We have so many lands in our deck that it lets us draw a bunch of lands that we can use for lethal if we have the combo out of look for our combo pieces. Shock
also lets us do the things that Lightning Strike does, for 1 less mana but 1 less damage as well.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There aren't many upgrades I can suggest, besides cards like Force of Negation and some counter spells. You should also aim for some mana fixing like Scalding Tarn
and Steam Vents
.
