Went 2-3 in my modern league today. No joke 3 of my 5 matchups were the mirror match so that was honestly a lot of fun and helped me learn a lot about the weaknesses the deck has but also when the good opportunities for wins are
Overall i do wish i did better but i’m not overly surprised this is how i did considering how long i’ve been away from Modern as a format. Stoked for the next one!

Ruby Storm at FNM: First Place Finish!
~ Ruby storm list builds itself
I’ve been a long-time fan of Bryant Cook and Tony Scapone from The Epic Storm. They’re always cooking up something new when it comes to storm strategies! There are less opportunities to play storm in modern before MH3 but I played a little with twiddle storm a few years back.
After the Nadu ban I finished building Ruby Storm. I had already been playing a few FNM events with Gifts Storm and then Ruby Storm, but as I mentioned before, my results weren’t great. In Legacy, my heart lies in the Cephalid Illusionist but I love to mix it up and I have a soft spot for Ruby Storm—it sidesteps most classic storm hate and can perform surprisingly well.
There are basically two builds: with or without Bonus Round. It’s funny how Tony Scapone swears by it, while Bryant Cook considers it a "win-more" card. Either way, getting the missing pieces for the Legacy version wasn’t too difficult. Thanks to our proxy-friendly policy, 2 Jeska’s Wills later, and I was ready to go! The rest of the deck is pretty much 4 ofs.
First Place!
I brought Ruby Storm to FNM on the 14th of Februray, and despite getting absolutely smashed by Dimir in the final round, I still managed to take first place! What a feat!
~ Post on our LGS wall, I was happy!
My matchups were 2-0 Food Chain, 2-0 UWx Control, 2-0 Eldrazi and 0-2 Dimir. Eldrazi was especially fun because there was quite a few interaction in both games we played but I managed a win none the less. I was lucky this time as a won all my matches before the final, so that's varince for you. But I also managed to navigate through quite some hate so there is that.
What really amazed me about Ruby Storm is its resilience. It can push through a lot of hate, rebuild when needed, and even pull off turn 1 kills. The deck feels powerful and rewarding, but I still have some work to do, especially against Food Chain.
I didn't like Leyline too much and would probably change them. The two Defence Grid on the other hand where the MVP of the show!
I’ll be back at Legacy FNM next Friday—let’s see if I can bring some fun deck to the party!
