Modern became a format in the summer of 2011, and things started off extremely slow for Death's Shadow. Considering that the archetype is apparently much more resilient than it looks and it appears that Death's Shadow will be around for the long haul in Modern, it's probably worth investigating just where this deck came from, which we will do today in another installment of Deck Evolutions! Today's Death's Shadow Deck Evolutions is actually the sixth installment in the past, we've covered Modern Tron, Legacy Miracles, the now-extinct Modern Twin, Modern Jund, and Modern Dredge, so make sure to check them out if you missed any of them the first time around! Anyway, let's break down the evolution of Death's Shadow in Modern! Elemental Combo-Chuyiyo, MTGO Daily, October 2012 In hindsight, the demise of Death's Shadow in Modern was clearly overblown-the deck is still the sixth most played in Modern, even after undergoing a major evolution to compensate for the loss of Gitaxian Probe. While the easiest explanation for the banning is that it was targeted at Infect (and at hopefully slowing down the format in general), most people (including myself) assumed that the loss of the free spell would mean the end of Death's Shadow decks in Modern, since the ability to not only see if the coast was clear but also lose two life was essential to the plan of the deck. Just over a month ago, Gitaxian Probe was banned in Modern.
