Hey All,

So, I have briefly messed with legacy in the past, but nothing proper (I'm a scummy modern player normally). Some more history... I made a modern deck that 5-0d a while back, and it was amazing. The idea was to cast a creature, get it countered, and then play summoning trap for free. Rather than hitting a big fatty (like emrakul), I wanted to win as early as possible... so I ran e-wit, resto Kiki.

I was trying to scratch that itch again, but then realised that half the decks in legacy run FoW... so I'm here to try and make a summoning trap deck for legacy... so far i'm 3-0 in the 2-man queues, but the opponents haven't been the best (did face 2 FoW decks which helped). Here's the decklist:

Here's my problems so far:

1 - having enough creatures that my opponents want to counter. Rofellos does a great job of this, but the others are not stunning. Any creatures that I should consider, either as Green Sun's targets or otherwise.

2 - my manabase is weak, mostly because i'm on a budget (modo manatraders budget) - but it means kiki is uncastable. What's the best way to mitigate the issue of drawing it naturally (currently using clique)?

3 - there's just not enough creatures in the list as trap hits full stop. Once Upon / Green Sun's / Swords are all so good, that it's hard to find room. Any advice? (My guess is that swords should go first).

So far I've done some pretty broken things... had a t1 bop get dazed and then double-trapped, which got a scoop from the opp (even with pretty mediocre hits). I had a single trap hit double-witness kiki before whiffing entirely, only to use kiki witness again next turn to hit my resto. Also used Rofellos to hardcast Trap fairly. Trap -> PrimeTime was also pretty back-backing.

Would love to hear some thoughts. Any that keep the cost of the deck low are great, but even non-budget options I'd like to hear too. It's a lot of fun, and maybe it can be a reasonable meme deck. I've yet to face combo, which I assume just absolutely destroys me! But either way, I'm going to enjoy spinning some traps for a while.
