While a lot of the hype around Modern Horizons 2 is all about the new cards it is adding to the format, the small subset of "new to Modern" reprints is just as exciting, especially for Magic boomers like myself who love seeing old cards see new light again.
However, not every "new to Modern" card is an old card.
Titania, Protector of Argoth was a card that had never been printed before in the old border (that is until Modern Horizons 2), the original signifier for cards that would be legal in Modern. Instead, it was first printed in Commander 2014 and fairly quickly found itself being a niche player in Legacy.
Well, if a card is good enough for Legacy, it's good enough for Modern!

The loss of Field of the Dead hurts Selesnya Lands significantly, but there's still a lot of power here to be had.
While our games didn't play out exactly as we would have liked, there's a ton of room for flexibility in the decklist. With the tutor effects of Eladamri's Call, Karn, the Great Creator, and Elvish Reclaimer, there were many cards potentially available to get us out of all sorts of trouble spots we experienced in this league.
This is a crazy time for Modern as it's going to take a while for Modern Horizons 2 to settle into the format, but if you can get your silver bullets correct then this deck could be quite the choice!
