Thank you!

The Renegade has actually been performing very well- worth noting that I have started playing Ghor-Clan Rampager over Manamorphose since this writing. The deathtouch just allows it to always attack, which can’t be said of the other creatures. I like Domri, and it’s worth trying. I currently have one Ranger of Eos in the board, and the mana efficiency on Domri could just make that better.

Terminate matters a lot with Bant Eldrazi poised to pick up in popularity (two copies in the Top 8 of the Columbus Classic- one of my losses) and I can’t really justify shaving it as things stand. The two K-Command feels a bit heavy-handed and I could see turning one of those into the second push. The three mana spells have always been a bit taxing.

Spell Pierce has been in my sideboard for some time, and comes in seldom enough that I would not consider it for maindeck inclusion. Too many of the games with this deck go long to utilize Pierce consistently.

Thank you! It’s a question that has come up before, and it’s something that gets shut down on paper. You exile stuff from your graveyard (Delver, Snapcaster) enough to make Rune Snag the worse card too often.

The builds that I have been successful with are heavily focused on interaction, and many of my games go long. Blood Moon feels like a mulligan often enough that it just doesn’t make the cut. Other players advocate it and have had success, but you should be looking at their lists and asking them rather than putting Blood Moon in a list similar to mine.

This was my original thought, but my experience with fair decks in modern is limited to Pod, so it’s really not my area of expertise. Now that I’m on grixis, it feels like getting a turn two delve threat under a lock piece like Blood Moon would play well, but I’ll defer to others who have more reps.

That Bushwhacker Zoo list looks great. I think fetches 13-14 are a bit much (makes the deck a bit vulnerable to land hate for my taste), but otherwise I’ve goldfished with the deck and it feels pretty powerful. The only card I’m somewhat iffy on is Narnam Renegade, but it’s frankly the best of what’s available. What do you think of Domri Rade as a sideboard card against the Jund types? I’ve always been a fan of it.

As for your Delver list, I’m surprised by the 4 Terminate/1 Push mix. I agree with you that Push is more of a useful tool than a format-defining force, but in a deck as defined by efficiency as Grixis Delver is, I’d think Push would merit getting a 2nd copy snuck in there somewhere.

Last but not least, good luck in your further endeavors.

JW, how come? Since it’s so good at supplementing the enchantment with a clock, I’ve found Delver to be the archetype best suited to utilize Moon in Modern.

You don’t need four, as manamorphose by itself doesn’t actually help your gameplan. It is solely there for the few occasions where you want to Herbalist into Bushwhacker when you don’t also have a shaman to turn GG into RG. Four would be clunky, reducing your threat count while also occasionally bringing up two into your hand. Would suck to go Herbalist > Manamorphose > Manamorphose and not have a bushwhacker payoff.

First off, good luck in your future endeavors 🙂
Second off, have you considered rune snag rather than mana leak?

The one Push seems fine. Card is on average worse than Lightning Bolt and Terminate. I strongly dislike Blood Moon out of the Delver sideboard.

Destructive Revelry jumps out at me as a strong option. Lightning Helix and/or Kitchen Finks for red mirrors seems solid, and the Finks pull double duty against removal-heavy decks. With Ad Nauseum winning the last Classic I could see Thalia and/or Gaddock Teeg being servicable options. A Couple Surgical Extractions as a hedge against Goryo’s Vengeance also seems reasonable.
