If you’re a Tron deck running Karn, the Great Creator, you’ve also gained a few spicy wishboard inclusions such as Cursed Totem, Zuran Orb, and Kaldra Compleat. Ignoble Hierarch has people talking about Jund midrange decks again, traditionally a very good matchup for Tron. But while the deck has seen better days in Modern, Tron can never be fully written out of it. Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer is also a big shot in the arm for aggressive red decks, which can tricky for Tron to deal with. Loser: Tronīoy, there sure is a lot of weirdly-specific hate for colorless strategies in this set, huh? Cards like Break the Ice, Obsidian Charmaw, and Void Mirror seem designed for use solely against colorless strategies. Modern newcomer Titania, Protector of Argoth also pairs well with Primeval Titan or in any land-centric deck as a way to get back lands and punish opponents for destroying them. For the Amulet Titan players out there, Urza’s Saga lets you tutor an all-important Amulet of Vigor into play. Primeval Titan decks also gained a strong SB option in Endurance, which can shore up two tricky matchups in Dredge and Mill. Primeval Titan is one of the pillars of Modern, and I don’t see that changing after Modern Horizons 2 releases. The other big mana payoff in Modern, Primeval Titan, saw very little hate directed its way by Modern Horizons 2. Modern Horizons 2 features a number of hate cards focused on long-established ramp deck Tron, hate cards that are specifically aimed to punish colorless lands and spells. Glimpse of Tomorrow credit: Jokubas Uogintas, Wizards of the Coast Winner: Primeval Titan What can Modern players expect once the set becomes available for play? Below are some of my predictions for winners and losers from the current Modern format. The first Modern Horizons set, released in 2019, was a defining moment for the format, and Wizards of the Coast is taking the plunge again with Modern Horizons 2. Modern Horizons 2 is Magic: the Gathering’s second foray into printing new cards directly into its popular Modern format. We’re expanding our set review coverage this week with C-Euro taking a look at winners and losers for the Modern format from the new Modern Horizons 2 set.
