First up this week, we take a quick spin through last week's Modern Leagues and pick out a few extremely cool decks to chat about. After that it's an Izzet world and we just delve right into it. That's right, it's UR week on The Dive Down (again) as we take a deep look at one of the latest best decks of Modern Horizons 2 Modern — Izzet Murktide. We discuss why we think the deck is suited to the meta right now, how to play it, and how to beat it (we think). Tune in to find out if this is a control deck, a midrange deck, or a tempo deck — we have a definitive answer! (Warning: We do not have a definitive answer.) Shane loves Counterspell. Dave loves Garden State. Stan loves 8-2s.The Break Down: Some Cool Decks We SawThe Dive Down, pt 1: An 8/8 for TwoThe Dive Down, pt 2: Izzet Just Death's Shadow?Become a citizen of The Dive Down Nation!: http://www.patreon.com/thedivedownGet 15% off your first 3 months of ManaTraders! https://www.manatraders.com/?medium=thedivedown and use code "thedivedown2021"Timestamps:Links from this week's episode:4C Carth Superfriends, as trophied by Greenhide1https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/4136337#paperBUG Tokens, as trophied by Litledude123https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/4129352#paperMODERN Izzet Phoenix, as trophied by AspiringSpikehttps://twitter.com/MoughonEvart/status/1413522001583554568Hammertime with Ingenious Smith by Hamudahttps://twitter.com/hamudao3/status/1413998949728411648?s=202nd Place Izzet Murktide deck from Saturday’s Modern Challenge from DO0MSWITCH https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/mtgo-standings/modern-challenge-2021-07-11?xd2#domswitch_nd_placeOur opening music is Nowhere - You Never Knew, and our closing music is Space Blood - Goro?
