Sprout storm is a strange card, as it has convoke and buyback. The more you play it the more you increase your ability to play it. Well... Why not make that an infinite amount of times? With the ever broken Intruder Alarm this is an easy task.Other win condition include jade mage and kazandu tuskcaller.
you want to get out birds or hierarch turn one, into intruder alarm turn two, then turn 3 mana dork, or more if you have them) and end of opponent's turn scatter the seeds. which sets you up to the play sprout storm infinitely next turn.for added hilarity Oran-Rief, the Vastwood makes your tokens all bigger. other win conditions:Tuskcaller, leveled twice.or jade mage + 3 mana dorks.NOTE: all win conditions also give you essentially infinite mana as well.Beck and call lets you draw your whole deck.Thinking about replacing it with cranial plating.

First thing's first. Preordain in the main deck and Life // Death in thr sideboard are the only non-Modern cards (from what I can see). Preorain is easily replaced by Serum Visions or Sleight of Hand. As for Life // Death, I'm assuming it's for the Life half, which has a slightly more expensive Modern equivalent in Natural Affinity, which makes them 2/2's instead of 1/1's.Beck's draw is optional, so no fear of decking yourself. I must ask, where's the Impact Tremors ot Altar of the Brood for the instant win? If you go the Impact Tremors route, Jeskai Ascendancy should be considered as a backup Intruder Alarm style effect.

So. In answer, yes preordain is getting replaced. I never build decks more than 60 cards, so I was looking for replacements. and I was thinking Opt might be good there. It doesn't dig as deep but it allows me to scary before drawing, which I like.Life// death needs to go honestly. No place for it here. It was a very early possibility I looked at, and I just couldn't make it work.Jeskai ascendancy is an interesting suggestion. It would certainly work here very well with Sprout storm. But not with my other win conditions... Hmm... I suppose if I dropped the other win conditions and rework the mana base. I could work it in. I feel like I could build a separate deck around it in Jeskai colors.Really looking for counter spells that won't kill me. Was thinking about remand, Supreme Will, spell pierce, censor and swan song.
Remand is only good as a stalling tactic. I know a lot of blue based control decks run Mana Leak as their catchall mainboard, with more specific counters in the sideboard. Spell pierce is another good mainboard option as it gives you a counter for 1 mana that hits a lot of things that can disrupt your combo. So those are the ones I'd concentrate on the most.
Remand I like for the draw. but I think that something like memory lapse might be better since it puts it on the library... (if it were modern legal.) that being said, remand can also be time walk in early game.I was thinking about Spell Pierce specifically for control decks. Mana leak is great as well.I was thinking about Supreme Will because it also lets me dig a little bit if I don't need a counter just then, or not playing against a control deck. So I think 2 of those wouldn't be a bad idea. maybe.
Just remembered, Dryad Arbor also untapps with Intuder Alarm / Jeskai Ascendancy, and because Sprout Swarm and Scatter the Seeds have convoke, the summoning sickness down side of Dryad Arbor is often mitigated.
Hmm certainly something to think about.Speaking of this to think about, could you rate a look at this and let me know what you think?https://www.mtgvault.com/kazzong/decks/ub-spliced-remedy/It is super janky but I think it looks fun.
