Instant Deck Tech: X-Factor (Modern)

by SaffronOlive // Mar 12, 2020

Instant Deck Tech time! Protean Hulk has been dominating competitive Commander recently with the help of its good friend Flash, but can the seven-drop make the jump to the Flash-less Modern format with the help of some cheap reanimation spells and a combo finish? On Fishbowl Thursday it can! If you'd like your own deck considered for a future Fishbowl Thursday leave a link in the comments or you can email it to me at SaffronOlive@MTGGoldfish.com.

Don't forget, if you want to see this deck made into videos, you can vote by liking, commenting and subscribing to the MTGGoldfish Youtube Channel!
