Levy went 4-0 with this deck (mtgo). Mind you it doesn't use rack, but you could easily make card changes to suit rack (buried ruin) etc. This is also his latest brew, which he said was better than the one he took to pro tour. http://www.twitch.tv/raphaellevy/v/3793298

This is very interesting. I play Pox is Legacy, but I play at a venue that allows proxies and the same 10-15 people show up. It's rather small and I'd like to go competitive, but I like the funds to afford Legacy's money cards. I want to play pox in Modern, but I notice a lot is different in the deck. Pox's main strategy was to make your opponent enter top deck mode and slowly chipping him away until victory. It seems like the premise is similar, but lacks some locks. I want to experiment with Modern, but not sure where to start. How come cards such as Rain of Tears and Wrench Mind aren't used in the deck?
Why bother with rain of tears, and Wrench Mind, when you can Tectonic Edge or Ghost Quarter your opponent. Or just Ravens Crime over and over. that is the beauty of Loam Pox.

Well, I did just say I play MB Pox in legacy, so you can understand why I asked those questions about those cards. Wrench mind is a pretty good replacement for Hymn to Tourach in modern if you ask me. I mean, 8 rack runs it and I see a lot of the time Pox decks in modern will splash elements of 8 rack in the deck. This guys list is pretty dope though. I like the Vengeful Pharaoh in the deck.
I actually wondered if Levy's deck could switch gears via sideboard and add a rack or 2 and a buried ruin. You could recure ravens crime over and over and add the IOK, or thoughtseize. I think it would be great vs combo like bloom, and splinter twin.
When I get Internet stable at my house I'll list my 75, but I use 3 wrenchmind because affinity isn't as prevalent in my meta. Lots of twin and scapeshift.

It's not the fall that hurts, it's the sudden stop at the bottom.
the red mage lives by the variance and dies by the variance. May the variance be with you, always.
Morning all. I ran into a gentleman over the weekend at Origins that was talking about a Pox/Loam deck he had been running that also had Phyrexian Obliterators in the deck.....has anyone come across such a list?
