Strategy
"Death & Taxes" is a disruptive and controlling deck in the Modern format of Magic: The Gathering that aims to slow down the opponent's game plan and disrupt their resources while deploying its own threats. The deck is typically built around the synergy between taxing effects (like Thalia, Guardian of Thraben and Archon of Emeria) and resource denial (like Leonin Arbiter and Ghost Quarter). The good points of the deck include its ability to disrupt opposing strategies effectively, especially against combo and control decks. The deck can also deploy threats like Stoneforge Mystic and Skyclave Apparition to pressure the opponent while maintaining control of the board. Aether Vial is a key card in the deck, allowing for efficient deployment of creatures at instant speed. However, the deck can struggle against fast aggro decks that can go under its disruption and pressure its life total before it can stabilize. Additionally, the deck's mana base can be susceptible to disruption, especially if the opponent is able to deal with the key lands like Ghost Quarter or Field of Ruin. Overall, "Death & Taxes" is a solid choice for players who enjoy a disruptive and interactive playstyle, with a mix of control and aggressive elements. It rewards careful sequencing and understanding of the opponent's game plan, making it a popular choice in Modern Magic: The Gathering tournaments.
