The engine of our deck is Seance, which generates a huge amount of value when it hits the battlefield, combined with Satyr Wayfinder to make sure we hit our land drops (and stock our graveyard) and Commune with the Gods (which helps find our Seance and fills our graveyard).

His advice was to think of Seance as a Panharmonicon that goes back in time, and you can see a very Panharmonicon-esque feel to our deck (at one point, I had a copy of literal Panharmonicon but ended up going with a single Doubling Season instead). My initial idea was to go big with Hornet Queens and eventually Craterhoof Behemoth to win the game, but when I talked with Zac, he sold me on the idea that you don't really need big finishers to close out the game.

While getting back a token copy of a creature in our graveyard every turn seems powerful, actually figuring out how to use this token (which doesn't have haste, so it can't attack) to win the game is the main challenge of the deck. Against the Odds: Four-Color Seance (Deck Tech)

Let's get to the videos, and then we'll talk a bit more about the deck, but first a quick reminder. He had been working on Seance decks for a while and sent me some lists and while I changed some things up in the end, his decks and testing had a bit influence on the final form of the deck. I almost always build Against the Odds decks by myself, but when it became clear that Seance was going to win, I got a tweet from Zac Elsik of Lantern Control and Sram'O's fame. Maybe the most interesting aspect of today's deck is just how it came to be. As such, this week we are heading to Modern to see if we can generate some value from our graveyard with Seance! The white enchantment Seance jumped out to an early lead and finished with nearly twice as many votes as the runner-up, Zur the Enchanter. Last week was part one of our all- Modern Masters 2017 poll, and the winner was never in doubt.

Welcome to episode seventy-six of Against the Odds.
