Deck discussion for Modern PILLOW FORT

Have you thought about splashing green for a bunch of Herald of the Pantheon, could help build life total in order to assist will Pillow Forting.

Oh and Empty the Vaults might be useful vs mill or enchantment hate sideboards.

Splashing green could work, I'll think about it.

I'm not sure if you really need so many "Propaganda" effects, I feel like just the play set of Ghostly Prison would be enough so you could probably cut Sphere of Safety.

I'd also recommend splashing blue for Detention Sphere because it is a better O-Ring in most cases, also you could include Spreading Seas as a way to disrupt the opponents mana and it cantrips which is nice. Blue would also give you access to Serum Visions to smooth draws and counter magic in the sideboard just in case.

I cut a SOS for more Idyllic Tutors in the mainboard. Thanks!

I've never played pillow fort, so I may be off-base, but I would include 4x Idyllic Tutor in your main, & another copy of Greater Auramancy, so they can shroud each other. Also, since Story Circle & Suppression Field are at odds w/ each other, I'd drop the former in favor of the latter, especially since Leyline of Sanctity already protects you from burn & whatnot. Left you a +1.

Thanks! I didn't really want more copies of Greater Auramancy, because you wouldn't really want to draw it when you need something else, but I will probably take out some Story Circles for Idyllic Tutor.

the curve here is a little high. you basically wont have anything to do until turn 3-4, and from there development will be pretty slow. I would consider running 4 wall of omens. It will speed up the deck tremendously as a turn 2 drop that provides card advantage and blocks early game threats.

Ok, I see your point. I actually play this deck sometimes and it hasn't lost yet (except to my own elf deck), but sure I'll try it. what are you suggesting I take out?

you have a lot of unnecessary conditional cards in here that are great in the right situation, but on the average are really holding this deck back.

leyline of sanctity, nevermore, rule of law, and suppression field are unnecessary and in some cases actually fight against the purpose of the deck. any of them would be good to pull out for wall of omens.

Your best bet to actually make this deck consistent is to go hybrid blue and white and use some acceleration cards like serum visions that will let you move through the deck more quickly to get to either your win conditions or your important stall cards.

Yes i thought about blue before with cards like detention sphere and serum visions but I kind of want to keep the cost low and splashing would add a lot of cost. I might pull out a rule law and/or a suppression field (maybe nevermore?) for wall of omens, but I play against a lot of decks like burn or 8-rack and it is really helpfull. I think I will make a new pillow fort splashing blue or maybe green.
