It risky to play sometimes like you said for fast aggro and mid range, but adding those barriers really helped out. It's hilarious to see the look on peoples faces when this deck plays flawlessly.

Its really not as slow as it seems, duskmantle guildmage + tome scour (4 mana) isn't that bad. i also like to pair him with jace. After playing a few rounds i noticed it can be a bit weak without a Wight in your early hand, so i dropped two guildmage and grisly removal for hover barrier. I play fnm at my local store and i havent came in first but i have placed fairly well with what i was going against.
I removed the grisly because after doing a few fnm i realized i never used it. added hover barrier and thats plenty enough to stall. and i did add doom blade. thanks for the tip
indeed. thanks.
yeah dual lands would be a nice addition.
I posted a Mill/Kill deck thats only $20 and standard today. There are a few cards that are affordable that would go extremely well in this deck. Duskmantle Guildmage, and Wight of Precinct Six.http://www.mtgvault.com/wmlong/decks/millkill-standard-20/
I see ogre jailbreaker in there, but no gates. is he there just for defense?
I just posted a MILL/KILL deck i will be using this coming FNM. you should check it out its fairly similar with a bit more aggro to it. http://www.mtgvault.com/wmlong/decks/millkill-standard-20/
This is a pretty nifty deck for modern. Keening stone has always been a beast!.
suggestions anyone? i know its a bit weak on defense at first, but the ball does get rolling fairly quick and you always have counters to rely on early.
My etched champion deck really could use dispatch like you suggested. I also like unwinding clock and metallurgeon. I stopped collecting cards at Scars, looks like there will be some new ones i will be buying haha. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=390425
