@SeleneElizabeth congratz on the great finish! I decided to try this list out at an fnm, but it didn't really convince me... it may be bad luck or poor mulligan decisions, but the deck was fairly inconsistent... What am I looking to mulligan for? Does this deck even mulligan well?
The search for my next modern deck has led me to Tezzeret. I started playing modern about half a year ago and UB mill was my first deck. While it is a fun deck to play, it slowly gets boring after a while due to the lack of interaction or "impactful" desicions. So I decided to seek a control list. Grixis quickly popped up, but it was a bit too grindy for me. I also had the feeling that it lacked a game plan or aim to work towards - well ok, the aim is basically to survive and bring their life to 0 somehow, but that didn't really appeal to me enough.
So... after further searching I found Tezzerator. And eventhough getting told countless times that it isn't a great deck I kinda like it and would want to get into it. It has the perfect mix of control, prison and combo without one overshadowing the other (although you could probably make a list that focuses on one of those aspects), it has a solid game plan in locking the enemy out of the game followed by either thoptersword, 5/5 artifacts or Tezz ult otk to finish the game. And it is highly customizable and can be altered to fit one's playstyle and local meta.
Now the question is what list to start with. Since everyone seems to have their own customized list and it looks like there is no "best", could someone recommend me a "balanced" or base list I can get and start my journey with? I assume everyone has to find their own preferred list, but one has to start somewhere.
Also, at which page of this thread does the relevent bit of information start? I assume the first X pages are filled with discussions about outdated decklists and old metas.
