Real men play combo! This is my take on the classic "Building on a Budget" deck. For tips on how to play the deck, click the link below: http://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/boab/156 I made several improvements to the original design, giving the deck a much more consistent draw, and a much higher win rate in the current Modern format. Snapcaster is a great improvement to strategy, as I have essentially 11 Second Sunrise including the Noxious Revivals and the Spoils. The win condition change also helped, because now the deck no longer needs to go infinite to win. Instead, once 60-ish permanents have hit the grave, which is roughly 5-6 run-throughs with the Sunrises, you can get off one Bitter Ordeal. Once you hit 30 permanents, 3-4 run-throughs, you can hit 2 Ordeals or, better yet, cast an Ordeal, then flash it back with Snapcaster. Perhaps the best change I made was adding the Pacts, because you'll usually try to go off turn 2, 3 or 4, and if you went first, your opponent will have, at max, enough mana for one counter. That sets up your safeguard, almost ensuring that every shot at going off leads to victory.

Definitely interesting idea. However I think it's susceptible to being beat down too quickly before you can go off with the Bitter Ordeal.

I can see where you're coming from, but I strongly disagree. Zoo is the only true aggressive archetype in the Modern format. My deck goes off turn 2-4. Zoo, at it's best, can hit for 6 on turn 2, 3, and 4, then burn me for the game. The average Zoo deck does a turn 1 Noble Hierarch, turn 2 Knight of the Relequary, Swing 6 turn 3, and I go off, next turn. The removal of Nacatl from the format slowed Zoo down considerably, and the possibility of me being "beat down" before I go off has virtually all but disappeared. I know this deck seems to be slow and fragile, but Modern is the format for Combo. With Control's eventual and necessary demise in the format, this deck can, does, and will consistently win.
I played Zoo before the revision of the Banned List, btw.
