I´ve my 4x Aetherworks marvel foil and now in Standard I can´t play it. Well, I want make it in Modern. And my brain worked a lot yesterday and it´s the deck list:
For Marvel to be good in this format you have to play good cards. I would start by using energy cards that can work in this format as well as things that can sacfice themselves that ARE ALSO good on their own.
Energy cards that are good in modern:
-Rouge Refiner (cantriping is always nice)
-Aether Hub (easy to run since it is a land)
-harnessed lightning (removal that can act as a pseudo Skred for this deck)
-Glimmer of Genius (This is actually being ran by itself in some UW control decks because it's so good)
I'd love to cast the new eldrazi with aetherworks marvel, however in my initial thought process was to use through the breach with the deck to solve the problem of drawing your Eldrazi, since aetherworks doesn't cast from hand. Artifact alternative is quicksilver amulet, but I wouldn' want to put all my eggs into the artifact basket since modern has stony silence floating around.
Additionally using breach or Amulet won't get you the effects of cast, so Annihilator might be preferable so you still getting "bang for your Breach" ("bang for your eldrazi"
if I could splash some more green and white into the deck, adding Congregation at Dawn can tutor for which creature you want when using top of the deck effects like aetherworks marvel.

Might be playable bot not great
-Whirler Virtuoso
-Puzzleknots
-attune with aether
Permanents that can sac themselves that are modern playable
-fetchlands
-ghost quarter/tectonic edge
-horizon canopy
-Chromatic Sphere
-Chromatic Star
-Relic of Progenitus
-Expedition Map
-Thraben Inspector
-mishra's bauble
-tormod's crypt
-MIND STONE
-nihil spellbomb
-Æther Spellbomb
-Pyrite Spellbomb
-Conjurer's Bauble
Card you should be running that aren't energy related
-Through the Breach (you need another way to cheat the fat creatures out)
Overall, I believe that a grindier marvel deck seems better than an all in deck.
Decks I'm playing in Modern right now:
URB Grixis Reveler (http://www.mtgvault.com/supast4r7/decks/modern-grixis-reveler/)
UB Faeries (http://www.mtgvault.com/supast4r7/decks/ub-fae-2/)
UW Azorious Control (http://www.mtgvault.com/supast4r7/decks/modern-ojutai-control-2/)
Okay and you don't need to be playing all of them since a lot of the cards you are playing are unplayable in this format.

why use standard junk when you can use thirst for knowledge, Chromatic Sphere, Chromatic Star, Relic of Progenitus, Expedition Map. All the artifacts trigger marvel and thirst is just great in this strat.
