As a standard player looking to get into the modern format I want to start a thread that highlights potential cards that perform well in the modern format that may be underrated/overlooked. They can be either budget replacements for more high dollar cards or cards that punch above their price tag yet go unplayed. Hoping to post by set. Happy hunting!
