I find her too expensive, one budget card to replace the good lilly that people use is necrogen mists.

Dalmor salavage you can dredge it back to hand to force them to discard.
Crime is honestly super strong and can lead to 2-3 cards gone on a single turn

If you're going with waste not maybe run dark deal?
I like sugical over exterpate but both are good.

Raven's crime plus 1-2 dakmor are honestly amazing.
I feel grasp is worse than dismember by a long shot and i understand not running lilly for budget reasons.

Is my take on enduring ideal which is a combo based prison deck where you look to win with dovescape, form of the dragon and phyrexian unlife.

You use nykthos as a sudo serra sanctum, and basically just try to lock them out of the game.

Another combo is heliod and nodes.
You can use heliod to make a token and sac it to nodes to keep nodes in the board making so any creature they cast died the turn after they play it, or they have to deal with nodes.

Prison is a mix between control and death and taxes.

Depending on your colours the decks can be fairly different and honestly there are many different wincons available.
Your weakest matches are tron (besides blue white). I side in starfield here and hope to aggro them out.
And gbx, its not so bad with a turn 1 leyline protecting you from discard, you just want to be able to dodge pulse and keep lilly in check.

Control os a 50/50 match depending on the builds.

Aggro besides infect is easy.
Affinty, burn and eldrazi are your best matchups.

Suppression field is your most underrated card (if facing a 3 colour deck it just hurts fetchlands soooo hard, and normally always hits a few relevant targets.

Dedwards-

Yeah with coco you basically just want to buy enough time to combo out, go all in on the combo, bring in your lifegain creatures and servant to buy you as much time as possible.

Its sloghtly evolved over the years, packrat/swarmyard/mutavault can act as extra copies of bridge.
If you're playing on doing that i would almost just remove the racks and god blie black mill with some minor discard to have a better control match up.

this is my current list to combat lots of eldrazi decks -_- the colorless can sometimes be rough, but any other list is simple.

prison decks deal with all those problems.
4x main deck leyline of sanctity deals with thought knot making it just draw you cards.
ghostly prision and sphere make it so they can't attack
oblivion ring/d-sphere/nodes to deal with threats or misc perms

many decks can beat eldrazi easy.
decks that can combo out early enough, burn, that U/W control deck.
coco decks are pretty good if they're running painters servant also.

I bought them years ago when they were like 10$ each:P meta shifts are nice sometimes.
I like top control, but like 8-rack has a few really bad match ups.

Yeah nobody will call rhino a bad card (unless theyre salty).
Like certain meta choices some cards/decks become better depending on the meta.

In a smaller meta like yours, it may barely change when a new set is released.
My current decks are 8-rack and enduring ideal.
Enduring ideal is much better in this meta, where 8-rack was much better in the combo era when bloom and twin were around.

Unduring ideal also shits all over affinity which is the second most popular deck atm lol.

Abzan modrange os still a thing, but its dofferent than this list (wilted abzan) and abzan company.
Not every list needs rhino, rhino can't really compete with smasher on turn 2-3.

Its just not the optimal card now that midrange/control aren't as strong.
There are obviously exceptions depending on decklist.
But overall rhino just isn't as good of a play for most decks.

The thing about the "still sees play here" kinda comment is that not every songle person has the money to update their decks at the launch of each set.
Rhino is fine, its just not as good as it used to be.

Hell, one of the strongest cards atm is ensnaring bridge, that sees very little play.

The thing is people aren't crying for bans because the deck is "OP", they want bans for the exact same reasons pod and twin got banned.
Eldrazi is the most oppressive deck in a long time, even worse than pod.

I have beat it more than i have lost to it, but i am playing enduring ideal in modern as its the best positioned deck atm. Sure im weak to gbx and tron but thats like 5% of the decks in the field.
Having a great match vs all aggro, eldrazi, affinity, burn and combo is just great :D.

A lot of us want things unbanned in modern, theres 3-5 cards that shouldnt be banned any longer.
