I have been playing online and got the idea to put mana tithe in the deck. It went from sideboard to main awfully quick. It seems as though everyone wants to tap out in modern to get the most out of the mana available which makes tithe so very good. As always I am welcome to suggestions.

Any clever ideas for a little card draw? Any thoughts about fetch lands to help thin the deck?

Thanks for taking a look, I just need to actually go out and buy the cavern of souls and it will be complete. A always, I am interested in input, never hurts to have some outside the box thinking!

If you wouldn't mind taking a look at my white knights deck that would be great!

You got it, not a lot better then vigilance to go with the first strike. I am hoping that this will put me over the top. I do appreciate the consistent feedback. If there is ever a deck you are in need of some feedback just let me know!

Cavern of Souls
That is all I have. Good luck with the knights, I run a white knights deck also, and love the reaction when I take down tier 1 decks. lol

I am going to be honest, I did not read through all the comments. I run a white knights deck also. I would highly recommend running Cavern of Souls as it is brutal against the predominant meta for me with all the control decks running around! Keep up the good fight with White Knights in modern sir! If you have a minute take a look at mine and let me know what you think!

I like the black nights deck idea! I run white knights and have had pretty good success so far! It would be quite the matchup, lol

lol, I have always ran only 3 vials. I thought about running 4, but I would hate to pull one late game and have it with no use...
I have tried Elspeth in the main online, the local meta here just does not justify her main, as I can usually out aggro the aggro decks, which are plentiful here. She comes in on the games that seem to take a while to win, America control typically and birthing pod.
I feel like her and Heliod are pretty interchangeable per matchup, and I don't want to run 2 at the 4 casting cost with the limited amount of mana that I typically have available.

Update:
+ 3 Cavern of Souls - 1 mutavault, -2 plains
+ 1 Heliod, God of the Sun - 1 Knight of the Meadowgrain
I am deadest on making a tribal deck compete with the tier 1 decks out there. I have had pretty good success so far, I think these little tweaks are what is going to help me get to where I want to be.
Any advice is always welcome! Thank you in advance!

Sideboard was very good against twin. America control with a good player at the helm is difficult as is pod. I was a bit overwhelmed when playing the pod deck that I lost to, I did not board in the wrath of god for game 3 which was probably the biggest mistake of the day. All in all it was a good day. I also now know how to play against infect, lol.

PTQ update:
Round 1: 2-0 vs America control - it was not the best version I have seen, not very competitive matchup. I aggroed normally round 1, round 2 I got the vial out turn 1 and it was over from there.
Round 2: 1-2 vs America control - it did what it was supposed to do, not let me do anything band then kill me.
Round 3: 2-1 vs Splinter Twin - I aggroed quick and won, game 2 he kiki jiki'd me with pestermite ftw, game 3 he got no lands after a mull to 5.
Round 4: 2-0 vs pod - poor construction of pod, he was somehow 2-1 at this point and I don't know how, very quick and easy.
Round 5: 1-2 vs pod - this was the first place player in the tourney, almost had him. Game 1 I came out swinging and won convincingly. Game 2 he way out paced me. Game 3 I had removal for days, but he had creatures for weeks...
Round 6: 0-2 vs infect
Dropped.
It was fun and a great learning experience!

Absolutely, kill the pestermite in response to twin. They just always seem to get spellskite out first. sneaky buggers. lol

My meta runs a little bit of everything it seems. I have only been playing modern for the last couple months. I see a lot of Tron, a little affinity, pod is kind of popular - in one form or another, splinter twin is there.
Tron is probably my easiest matchup - have yet to lose to it. Tron cannot keep pace with the army, and let me tell you they get very upset when you path any of there big dudes. lol.
Splinter Twin is my worst matchup so far - have yet to beat it. I don't know how they can combo off every game! lol. I have updated my sideboard to hopefully help against the combo with the otherworldly journey.
I know mono white knights sounds lame, but it has put up a real fight with the big decks in the format. I think it is partially due to nobody plays this deck competitively so nobody has a great sideboard for it.

I have not tested yet. I plan on play testing tonight and tomorrow online before the PTQ on Saturday. If they merit the change it will happen. Always have to adjust for the meta in your area, that is why the spears are in there to begin with. If they bring about a quicker win then they will be in for sure.
I appreciate all the feedback!

I have thought about it. I have a ton of stuff for the 2 drop spot. I feel like spear earns it's merit in the long game vs control where I can kill the celestial colonnade after they have removed everything on my board. Lol. Maybe it's just the local meta though.

Took this deck to a local modern event.
Round 1: 2-1 vs a deck that made you draw cards and punished you for having 7 or more in hand.
Round 2: 2-0 vs affinity(granted this was a generally poor version of affinity, but affinity none the less)
Round 3: 2-1 vs. tron. This tron deck ending up winning the whole event.
Round 4: me and my opponent drew into the top 8.
Top8: 1-2 vs. splinter twin. He managed to combo out on turn 4 games 1 and 3. Both of those games I had the next turn win, but never the less, I lost. Not bad for my first decent sized event with a mono white deck in modern!

Any suggestions would be great! Thanks!
