Strategy

The "Izzet Ensoul" deck in Modern is a powerful and versatile deck that focuses on quickly turning artifacts into powerful threats by enchanting them with cards like Ensoul Artifact. This deck leverages the synergy between artifacts and cheap spells to control the board while also presenting a fast clock for the opponent. Some key components of the deck include Mishra's Bauble and Ledger Shredder for card selection and advantage, Dragon's Rage Channeler and Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer for early pressure and card advantage, and Murktide Regent for a potent late-game threat. Lightning Bolt and Unholy Heat provide efficient removal, while counterspells like Counterspell, Spell Pierce, and Force of Negation help protect your threats and disrupt your opponent's game plan. One of the strengths of the deck is its ability to adapt to different situations by either playing a more aggressive game plan with early threats or transitioning into a more controlling role with counterspells and removal. The deck can also have explosive starts with cards like Expressive Iteration and Preordain to set up powerful plays. However, the deck can struggle against decks with heavy creature removal or decks that can go over the top with threats that are difficult to deal with. Cards like Pick Your Poison can be risky as they rely on your opponent's choices, and Blood Moon and Magus of the Moon can sometimes be a double-edged sword, shutting down your opponent's mana base but also affecting your own. Overall, the "Izzet Ensoul" deck is a fun and powerful choice in Modern that rewards careful play and thoughtful decision-making. It offers a mix of aggressive threats, efficient removal, and strong card advantage engines that can lead to exciting and dynamic games.
