Also, I've been away from modern and was wondering if you guys think this is a good configuration for the current meta. As you can tell, I'm leaning heavily on the power of the Blood Moon.
I appreciate any comments and wisdom you guys might have. I have to be prepared for burn, other than that I'm expecting a meta with top tier decks and the wacky modern surprises! Not sure if two angers and two EE are too many small stuff sweepers, but I don't own damnation...
Is it correct to take out kommand against burn or should I keep it in? I'm considering switching to full control in that match up and take out thought scour.
The list is a bit deviant from what people usually discuss here but I am in a testing mood. Last time I played I had Gurmag Angler stuck in hand more often than I wanted among other things. The absence of gitaxian probe is a scandal, I know!
The only thing I am really not sure about is how good spell pierce is these days. One mana counters are awesome in a deck with 18 lands but what is the best counterspell suite for the current meta ??
Also, sideboard advice on blood moon, packing graveyard hate and so on would be great, but again, I don't really know the meta....
After sideboard then, if I bring in spellskites, dispel and rending volley for example, the matchup actually becomes even because they neutralize my sideboarding plan?
Humans is more manageable with grixis than bloo I’m guessing?
For GDS humans is super tough so I was hoping the inclusion of TiTi would help there.
I think it’s really apripriate for the Meta.
How do you think it will fare against control decks and what’s your plan? Is that what the P&k are for?

My deck is almost the same except I have a couple of spell pierce main instead of dispel and electrolyze.
Would love to hear about your sideboarding strategy.
Unrrlatednquestion:
Does everyone auto-mulligan one land hands?
Thank you for sharing your opinion.
Cheers!

@MarcWizard thank you!
I've been thinking of a similar deck. This is my first version completely untested.
1 Creeping Tar Pit
1 Eiganjo Castle
4 Flooded Strand
2 Hallowed Fountain
2 Island
2 Marsh Flats
1 Plains
4 Polluted Delta
1 Swamp
1 Watery Grave
4 Delver of Secrets
3 Geist of Saint Traft
3 Tasigur, the Golden Fang
2 Snapcaster Mage
Instants/Sorceries (29)
2 Deprive
4 Gitaxian Probe
3 Lingering Souls
4 Path to Exile
4 Remand
4 Serum Visions
2 Spell Snare
2 Thought Scour
4 Valorous Stance
Thoughts ? Is it worth it since the burn match up looks terrible anyways ?
What are your opinions on electrolyze at the moment ?
In which match ups is it good ?
Trying to decide wether or not include a pair of them in my sideboard for a small tournament this weekend.
Thank you !
I like your list a lot !
I prefer stance/Boros charm split for more range but all in on big dude removal is a solid plan !
Could you please explain your preference of seachrome coast over glacial fortress?
Good luck !!
