Just curious why your running the liege over Goblin King? I'm aware of the upside of the Liege being out of Bolt range but I think Goblin King is gonna do more and come down earlier. I'm definitely not a fan of the Flamekin Legion Loyalist as previously suggested is a much better fit. Temple Bell seems it will help your opponent more then you want for that kind of an input 3 Dragon Fodders and a Hoardling Outburt maybe. Goblin Grenade is really good too.

Well shit I'm wrong. It turns out that the copy has the text of the splice version added to it. Now I have to figure out if it can be reliably cast , the double red may be a factor.

As well if you Reverberate an Arcane spell you can not splice Roar onto it since your not playing the copy, so that happens to be a draw back.

I really like Reverberate, but the Simian Spirit Guides really speed this up by allowing remedy on Turn 2 Allowing me to Combo off Turn 3.

I messed up. I didn't read Rain of Gore properly, it can't win on turn three but I still think it's very effective. If You get Tainted Remedy out.

So this is what I've just created, a modern combo burn deck that can go off on turn 3.

Interesting concept. I'm gonna play with this a bit to see what I can come up with.

Any suggestions on hoe=w to fit 2 copies of Foul-Tongue Shriek into this build. Or is that dipping to heavily into the black pool?

Gratuitous Violence could be really fun as a one of, since this is a casual deck. +1 from me. I love making my opponents creature be the cause of their demise.

Since your already running Entomb (the expensive one) then Exhume would probably be the best thing to add. Reanimate would be my second pick to add.

I have taken ypour advise and it seems to be doing great I didn't cut Zurgo all together since I really like the dash mid game. All I need now is 1 or 2 Kolagan's Command for it to be "done" ( No deck of mine is ever actually done)

Well I really don't find this site to be very accurate for pricing anyway. I price when I'm searching for the cards I want and base my decision on that. However I think it would be really nice if there was a link to lets say TCGPlayer that would take your deck list and apply it there.

Good! I am tired of so much focus being on the price or more so the lack there of. I like to evaluate and build according to synergy, originality. effectiveness before I even think about price. It shouldn't be a variable when building a new deck. Once you build a deck that works for you and you like, then price it out and get what you can and have a goal to work towards.

I don't think so. I only have 1 black mana source so I would never really be able to cast it turn 1 or 2 reliably. As well I can't think of anything I would cut for that. The black is really only in here because I hate facing all the life gain going around. It really puts e back.

Came first tonight out of 14 players. Going 2/0 round one against a WB Aristocrat Ally deck, 2/0 against a Esper Control deck, Round three was 2/1 against Dark Jeskai and same in Round four 2/1against another Dark Jeskai deck. Tainted Remedy won me two match ups. HA! LOL.

I really don't think you have enough red to support Chandra. She's a pretty bad creature when not running enough to make her flip the following turn.

Considering I play 3x Tainted Remedy in my Sideboard I'm pretty sure you'd be up shits creak. The main thing I think you need Budget allowing would be 4x Dromoka's Command.

It's a decent deck for casual but if your trying for modern your not gonna be getting any first place finishes. Almost all competitive modern decks have the ability to win by turn 5. I'm not saying all games are finished by then just that they could be where it seems your deck is just getting a board state. As well most have answers for the top tier decks in the format. I'm not seeing any interaction with anything from this deck. There is a reason Lightning Bolt is the most played card in Modern it should be a auto 4 when you have access to red. Rending Volley is a really good cheap sideboard card to deal with Twin decks. I apologize if I'm coming off negative just being honest.

Scavenging Ooze will really help a lot especially when facing Snapcaster/Jace decks. And Beast Within will provide an answer to twin decks if opp isn't holding a counter. Along the lines of removal Dismember is probably the best one for mono green.
