To start out, let’s take a look at the mono white version of DnT: Modern Mono White DnT Creatures (30) In spite of this however, there are some cards that work in both Modern and Legacy perfectly well, such as Flickerwisp, and Thalia, Guardian of Thraben. However in Modern, there are just simply not enough targets to constitute running more than a few Revokers in both the main and sideboard alike. The card does a ton of work in Legacy because almost every deck in the format has relevant targets. Another example of this is Phyrexian Revoker. For example the swords are specifically important in Legacy because of Stoneforge Mystic, but in Modern they are much less effective because there are no ways to effectively play and tutor them. Even though the Modern version of Death and Taxes is loosely inspired by the Legacy version, it is not always appropriate to just flat out copy every spell the Legacy version plays. However every single one still plays a basic core – which has become the standard for DnT decks.īefore we get started, it is very important to note that Modern is a different format than Legacy. Additionally the different splashes will be covered briefly.Ĭurrently the Death and Taxes/Hatebears variants that have been able to prove themselves in Modern are:Įach deck has its own unique aspects, and they all work differently for various metas. Instead I will be going over most of the various cards that can work in different situations, and which ones have proven to be useful. So we will not be analyzing a specific decklist (An example list will still be provided). Now, because Death and Taxes is a deck that attacks the meta, the cards that are appropriate to play are always in flux. Playing Death and Taxes is as close as a player can get to a hard control deck – without playing a high amount of non-creature spells. Much like its Legacy and Vintage counterparts, the mono white control deck looks to attack the metagame, winning through incrementally disruptive tactics. One of these decks is Modern Death and Taxes, or Hatebear. While the very top decks in Modern fluctuate often, there are a few decks which have always remained just beyond the reaches of the limelight. Such decks have included: Jund, Splintertwin, Delver, and now Death Shadow’s Aggro. Throughout its short history, the number of decks that have called themselves number one have been numerous. Modern is a format that is always fluctuating. 28 Jul, 2017 in Articles / Formats / Modern tagged Competitive / Deck Tech / Modern / White by zebotc
