I've been experimenting with Enigma Drake since it will be in the next Standard.
Goal: Pump Enigma Drake by putting cards in the graveyard, with Glorybringer as a secondary big dude. This mostly allows for the needed land drops to cast Glorybringer if you can't find an Enigma Drake.
Sideboarding Goals:
Anything with White (UW, Esper, GW): +3 Fragmentize and/or +1 Forsake the Worldly to deal with Seal Away and Cast Out. -1 Bomat, -1 Khenra, -1 Crasher, and/or -1 Viashino
Anything with Blue (UW, UB, Esper, and that ONE GUY that brings Wizard Prowess): +1 Banefire. -1 Glorybringer
Anything with The Scarab God (UB, Esper): +2 Sentinel Totem, +1 Banefire. -1 Bomat, -1 Khenra
Mirror or any form of Red (RW, R, RB): +1 Sweltering Suns, 3 Abrade, 2 Defeat. -2 Mage, -2 Viashino, -1 Crasher
I'm looking towards going to a GP in August, and I don't know if I would really need to change anything for the event itself. I'm mostly playing XMage for testing, and it mostly wins or, if it doesn't, gets my opponent down to 7, 5, or even 3 life. If someone has any suggestions, please give then.
Hello. I am looking for a deck that us fun to build and play(imo, of course), so I wanted to play a stompy deck, like Mono-G or GW Little Kid, but I've been having problems against CoCo's Vizier-Druid and other creature combos. Since GW has problems combating creatures. I already have Path mainboard, but I can't find it fast enough to combat certain combos. I'm wondering of anybody has any ideas for how to combat this.
For changing out cards(assuming you mean the Hazoret Aggro challenger deck), I would say:
Change out both Harsh Mentors for Chainwhirlers. Mentor isn't that important.
Put those Magma Sprays in the sideboard from the main, replacing those with leftover Hazorets.
Take Key to the City out entirely.
Replace two sideboard Magma Sprays for 2 Abrades
I'm working on a YT Channel (Not Linking it. Don't want to self-promote) where I unbox Bundles and talk about the state of the game. I have about 5 videos backlog for weekly uploads, and I'm enjoying it. I don't know how to get people to watch my content, and justify to my parents to buy Bundles to unbox (17, and not allowed to get a job under parent's rules). I'm doing tags and stuff like I should, but I'm not getting any traffic. Any ideas? Even if you have no advice, but a suggestion I can make a video about, please say it!

After HOU before gets rotated out, you can use some of those cards for a spicy Modern Bomat Red deck. Link: https://www.mtgsalvation.com/forums/the-game/modern/budget-modern/794233-bomat-red
That's mostly it. Welcome back! And enjoy your stay!

My goal is to replace the 2 Ahn-Crop Crasher with 2 Greenbelt Rampager. I currently have a cannibalized sideboard, and I'm thinking about adding Black with 3 Duress and 2 Carouche of Ambition as well to it.
If you have any ideas please tell me!
