Deck discussion for Bant Control

Ummm... Mental Misstep? Daze? Force of Will? Hell, Mana leak, Spell Pierce?

No draw fixing either? Why? And what the heck are you playing 4 Celestial Colonnade and Stirring Wildwood for? If you want manlands, Mishra's Factory?

Because this isn't legacy, it's a modern build, the (potential) upcoming format that will be 8th edition/Mirrodin block + . This is a rough draft... and I forgot draw. I do appreciate that idea, haha. But the manlands are for fixing as well as beating face. Misstep is in SB, I only like Spell Pierce in certain decks (not this one). But thank you.

Ah. That changes things. Lemme retry.

Pretty interesting, thogh I think you would be better shaping it more off of legacy Bant. I see no reason Noble/Pridemage/Rhox with GSZ should be excluded really, and it would allow you to go aggro if you want, or simply drop win cons by turn 4 without wasting room for ramp spells. Have you concidered Bant Charm? It's very versatile.

I would say Ponder>Preordain because of the extra card.

I could see it, I was going more for stompy control, than aggroing out. After I made the list I realized I have no answer for sligh or zoo besides turn 4 wrath, which can be fairly devestating. It still needs work, but I've got time before Modern becomes an actual format (which it's looking like it'll be) to tweak it.

Is Punishing Fire Recursion Modern-Legal? Might be interesting slow-roll while increasing your outs vs Sligh or Zoo
