I've been meaning to start playing modern for quite a while and I've decided on Merfolk as my first deck for the format.
I've read the primer, but I'm stuck. I currently think that a mono U build will suit me best, seeing as the splashes in both white and black don't really attract me.
I've started running Skinshifter over daybreak ranger and have never looked back. I do play beast within and a couple of dismember mainboard to offset the loss of removal somewhat.
Ninjas don't really appeal to me, as a friend allready has a ninja-tribal deck.
I'm going to look into snakes, Hydra's, birds and WGclerics for now, so I don't really need any other suggestions about other tribes.
Thanks for the interest sofar.
Now that I've narrowed my choices down quite a bit, I'd like some cards suggested to base the deck around.

Is mono U the best option or should I reconsider?
since the release of innistrad I've been interested in building a selfmill deck. This is what I've come up with so far:
2 Drowned Catacomb
5 Forest
4 Hinterland Harbor
5 Island
4 Terramorphic Expanse
2 Woodland Cemetery
3 Armored Skaab
4 Eternal Witness
4 Hedron Crab
3 Kessig Cagebreakers
2 Laboratory Maniac
4 Mindshrieker
1 Mirror-Mad Phantasm
4 Splinterfright
4 Dream Twist
4 Forbidden Alchemy
2 Memory's Journey
3 Mulch
What do you guys think?
I've been testing this deck a lot lately with the following list:
4 Mayor of avabruck
4 snapcaster mage
2 phantasmal image
2 daybreak ranger
4 mana leak
3 dissipate
4 brimstone volley
4 ponder
3 think twice
3 vapor snag
4 hinterland harbor
4 copperline gorge
3 sulfur falls
8 island
2 forest
2 mountain
2 garruk relentless
3 flashfreeze
2 ratchet bomb
3 ancient grudge
1 daybreak ranger
2 tree of redemption
But I've been wondering if we shouldn't just play Black instead of R?
People seem to be running Daybreak ranger mainly as removal, why not play things like go for the throat or doom blade instead.
What would your take on a golem deck be?

Sadly, I'll not be able to use it till I get home tonight (work restrictions).

Not that into archers/ rats, but to each his own.

I think it's great that you guys all do this free of charge, I'll try and promote your thread as best as I can.
Anybody played clerics without black before?
I'm not really impatient though, I was just afraid that due to being pretty new to the boards my request might be ignored.
