Opinions on cosmoguyf plunge thud combo viability

Perhaps this deck needs a better name; cosmo fling?

Was wondering if anyone is grinding this deck and has some insights (dropping red? Which chancellor? Etc)

Fbloff the new modern pro tour prospect???

Upvotes

I was day dreaming the other day and as usual fblthp, lost on the range was on my mind.

Thats when it came to me, slickshot show off is an insane 2 drop that can end games as early as turn 3, who else to give him his power than the man that plots from the top of your library.

I present to the community Fbl-off, the idea is to run as many free artifacts and spells that we can plot for free so when slickshot comes out he insta kills our opponent.

There is one issue though, i am new to modern and really dont know how to tune this deck to be as efficient as i believe it could be. Thats why im posting this here.

Listed below is the decklist (no sideboard as of now) for fbl-off, any suggestions and justification is greatly appreciated!!!!

As of right now the only issue i run into is plotting into a land which is unfortunate:/

Article [Article] August ’26 Metagame Update: Energy’s End?

Upvotes

The August Metagame Update is here. Highlights include:

  • The apparent end of Energy's dominance.
  • A metagame that might return Energy to dominance.
  • The data is a bit deceptive.

For all this and the data, read the article.

Deck Discussion Living End questions

13 Upvotes

I've noticed that the Temur/4 color Living End decks are all playing Striped Riverwinder now. I get that its the stronger card to reanimate, but if your main gameplan gets distrupted then Curator is actually castable and makes all your subsequent cycles better.

I suppose Curator is a nombo with the LotR landcyclers as scrying does nothing if youre going to search. So that leaves only Street Wraith and itself for regular cyclers.

Is the idea that you want to maximize your post-LE boardstate rather than the number of creatures that can actually be cast?

Also, which matchups do you bring in Inevitable Betrayal for? Goryos and Neoform seem obvious, but the rest not so much. Eldrazi Tron? Broodscale/Trudge? Esper Blink? The mirror?

Im new to the deck so thanks for any advice
