This is a deck I absolutely love but I think has not even come close to reaching its potential.

For those of you not familiar, Abzan Company is a deck that utilizes the power of Collected Company to put extremely powerful creature combos into play. In the elder days of Modern, pre-Birthing Pod ban, Abzan Pod boasted the ability to gain infinite life with Melira, Sylvok Outcast and Kitchen Finks along with Viscera Seer. That combo can also include Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit. Going along with infinite life is infinite damage if you replace Kitchen Finks with Murderous Redcap.

The reason I'm so high on this deck is because it has a lot of interchangeable parts that can all end a game on their own. The addition of Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit gave it another piece to work with aside from Melira, and that was greatly important. To supplement the Collected Company engine is another marquee in its own right: Chord of Calling. This will let you put a combo piece into play instantly from your deck if your Collected Company misses. Fauna Shaman acts as another tutor that fills your graveyard and synergizes with Reveillark, meaning you have tons of ways to get your combos online.

Aside from having a difficult-to-disrupt Plan A, the Plan B is as old as Magic itself: beat them to death with creatures. You can even pump your squad with Gavony Township.

This is absolutely one of the decks you have to be prepared for going forward in Charlotte. It's not a question. It's extremely strong, consistent, and offers fast wins or can grind out opponents. Like I said earlier, the scariest part about this deck is that we're seeing the infant lists of it, not refined copies.

One card I would like to see added to this deck is this bad birdy:

Hushwing Gryff meets a lot of proper criteria: it costs three, so our Collected Company can put it into play, but if we happen to draw it, the Gryff has Flash. In a world full of opposing Collected Companies, Siege Rhino, and Splinter Twin combo, it seems like Hushwing is being criminally underplayed. Maybe I'm wrong. Let me know!

    Combust is a great tech card, but it should cost one less mana and only deal four damage instead of five.
