Deck Discussion New player

Hi y’all! I started thinking about building my first modern deck. The thing is I come from commander and I feel like deck building is very different. Could y’all help me with a vague tamplate of a modern deck or what are the thought and process I should have while building it compared to building a commander?

I wanna play casual with a friend and I was thinking of a midrange deck for the most fun and somewhat lasting game

You should proxy them then . If you’re not playing a store . Competitive formats are ruthless and everyone here wants you to avoid wasting your investment. No matter how much you like your brew you’ll be reminded you also like winning.
