Cool Deck!I have a couple of questions:1- why flikerwisp? It seems like a worse restoration angel in my opinion. Is there a reason for it over RestoAngel?2- Duress. . . because of a budget or do you sincerely like it?3- With 19 creatures of varying , is 4 Aether Vial wise? (I don't know much about decks that use the card, but it seems like a dead draw most of the time)4- Do you think Kitchen Finks would fit in better with the double white theme of the deck over Vampire Knighthawk?

Thanks! Good questions!Flickerwisp is a bit of an experiment, but fits in well because you always want a vial at 3. Previously they were Lingering Souls but that was a non-bo with Vial and I wanted some flyers. I suppose I could test a few Angels in their place, good thought.Duress has been awesome in my meta, I wouldn't be comfortable going below two copies. Hits countermagic, removal, Twin, Pod, walkers, everything in Patriot control and Ad Nauseam. Aether Vial is one of the most important cards in the deck, not only because it makes 30% of the deck uncounterable, but there is a lot of added utility. Tidehollow after opponent's draw step to see more cards, Hero EOT post-wrath, Nighthawk before blockers are declared to kill Emrakul (done this multiple times FTW), Ooze in response to Goryo's Vengeance to exile GY shenanigans. Plus it frees up mana during your turn to cast hand disruption and swords, or leave mana free for removal. In short, Vial is good.Finks is good in Pod, but here it just seems like a 3/2 do-nothing beater. No evasion, no interaction with the opponent beyond killing a 3-toughness-or-less creature. Crusader already fills that role, has relevant abilities, and rocks carrying a sword. It's a possible sideboard card against RDW, but I'm not sure it's all that great in a deck like this.
Ahhh! ok, that makes more sense for a lot of them. I didn't think of flashing in Vampire nighthawk. And sorry to pester, but I do have one more question: does your deck have problems maintaining a hand? Without any draw it seems like you would run out of gas. Im mainly curious because I am running a somewhat (not really) similar Modern deck and have been very worried about not having enough draw. Thank you very much!
Draw isn't a huge problem because Hero pumps out so much card advantage. If I wanted to run some card draw I would probably use 2 copies of Phyrexian Arena or Read the Bones. The life loss wouldn't be a problem with Sword of L&S, Sword of W&P, and Nighthawk.
Ok, that makes sense, I'm now out of questions about your deck. Thank you for answering them! And since you have explained so much to me and seem to have pretty awesome ideas, Im going to ask that you look at my modern deck and help me out with it. If not its fine, but it would mean a lot.http://www.mtgvault.com/somesoggytacos/decks/modern-dega-superfriends/Thank you very much!
