I don't think Assassin's Trophy is that good now that I've played with it for a bit. I can safely say that there's a huge difference between an untapped land you're giving your opponent and a tapped land.
I really want to hear what Reid Duke thinks of the card since he isn’t the biggest fan of path. Has he said anything about it?

I mean, he's a bit biased towards to BG rock and always been. So it's no surprise he's advocating BG rock.
So I get that with Assassin’s Trophy and Fatal Push we don’t have a great need for path to exile or lightning bolt, but I think he’s underrating how good Lingering Souls and Bloodbraid Elf are. BBE always gets value out of hitting an AT, and has already generated value if it gets hit by AT, while Souls just laughs at AT. I’m still deciding between Jund and Junk, and really don’t want to consider a version of BG Rock that doesn’t at least splash for souls.

Blood Moon, Field of Ruin, Leonin Arbiter, Spreading Seas, Smallpox...there are a lot of ways in modern to punish mana greedy lists. Even burn punishes you for having more fetches and shocks.
