Deck and SB guide, effective 9/7/2022

Howdy everyone, here is the link to the updated Hammer list effective 9/7/22. You'll notice some small changes from last month, which I will cover below. This is 73/75 of the list that I top 4'ed the NRG 5k with, and going into an open meta, it is the list I would recommend.

Of course, make sure to adjust your mid-match decisions based on the specifics of any list you face and use this as a guideline, rather than a hard and fast rule!

Here is a link to the current decklist: https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/5078504#paper 

Going into the open field, I expect to see ~20% Murktide, ~15% 4C piles, and then 5-8% of the field will be made up of the following (in no particular order): Burn, Rhinos, Living End, Hammer, Amulet, Yawg, Green Tron, Creativity, UW Control. After that you have a whole slew of decks of varying power levels, but people will play what they like in Modern, ESPECIALLY in paper.

-0 relics/GY hate - Still very happy with this. Without Living End, the GY hate is unnecessary, as we are strong against just about every deck that we bring in Relic against.

-2 MD Skill - I had to make room for a 17-card SB, and Skill is the most universally applicable card that I can cast off of basic plains.

-3 Lavinia - The queen has reclaimed her spot as a 3-of for a couple reasons: First, she is SO much better than the next best option almost across the board. She's better than Drannith Magistrate vs cascade because she shuts off the cascade spells, the evoke elementals, and the forces (vigor and negation)

-1 Seachrome coast, 7 fetches, 3 Hallowed Fountain - I mentioned this in my last video, and I think having the 7 lands that you can grab off of Boseiju is important enough vs the W6/Boseiju loops that it is worth the extra potential life loss. Remember, that 7 mana casts Kaldra, and that makes it a reasonable plan C or D vs 4c decks.
