This week, we’re heading to Modern to play a budget version of a tried-and-true archetype for older formats: Death and Taxes! While technically Death and Taxes is a White Weenie deck, unlike many White Weenie builds, rather than looking to play a ton of one-drops and kill the opponent as quickly as possible, Death and Taxes takes a slower route based on playing a ton of disruptive creatures that aren’t powerful enough to lock the opponent out of the game but are annoying enough to slow the opponent down (hopefully enough to allow us to steal the win by beating down with our random creatures). Of course, building Death and Taxes on a budget means we are missing some key cards common in non-budget builds, like Aether Vial and some rare lands. Can Death and Taxes still annoy opponents out of the game without Aether Vial? Can a budget-friendly Death and Taxes build compete in Modern? Let’s get to the video and find out!
