Been playing a similar list for a little while now. Had just begun testing the Explore creatures as a way to get to lands for Swordtooth. One thing that he didn't mention is that casting Swordtooth on 3 with a land allows you to cast Hour of Promise on 4, get ascend, and attack with your Swordtooth on 4.
This looks pretty sweet. I would enjoy seeing it in action. Also, this is basically a Golgari deck. Technically it's Abzan, but the only white spell is Ajani.
Seth, you should make a Camel Tribal Standard deck! There are currently 5 standard legal camels, and while none are that good, you have metallic mimic and other things I'm sure to pump up the camels to make them good. I would LOVE to see this deck become a real thing, so please find a way to make it work please!
Honestly looks fun, but white doesn’t seem necessary.. I currently play something very similar in standard with blue splash instead of white to play champion of wits, allows dumping lands to continue to hold action in my hand, or an excavator. Then hitting nissa to scry and help hit better explores.. and of course scarab god is a solid option, negate, and essence scatter as sideboard options. It’s a basic GBx control shell. It’s a very fun shell indeed.
Does anyone think this could drop white? It's just running three cards with white in the casting cost and none in the sideboard. IX Binding is very good, but is it (plus one Ajani) really worth playing white for? Would really love anyone else's thoughts on this. Thanks.

I'd really like to see this deck being played, but I feel like it needs a lot more tuning as some of the card choices are questionable. maybe change things up to get more value out of the graveyard besides just lands
I think you can do without the evolving wilds here. i mean you're only running 7 basics i think maybe more desserts or other value sac lands. even ash barrens i think is better because after you get all your basics you can still play ash barrens for mana whereas once you have all 7 basics evolving wilds is just a dead card.
when you basic landcycle ash barren it also goes to the graveyard and again sacing the desserts as your win con just throw in more desserts. i can just see you being in late game with all your basics out and then top decking an evolving wilds and just being like ugh why.
Been waiting for a ramunap excavator deck tech for sometime now.

This deck looks super sweet. Totally the type of spice I like to watch Seth play!
This looks really cool and fun. Good ole Abzan.
I would really love to see this one in action! Please run it when you can!
loving ramunap excavator plus wayward swordtooth :) my farovite cards from those sets working together!!!
This looks pretty sweet. I would enjoy seeing it in action.

Oh Seth, please play this one - looks awesome!
this deck looks dope
The Spectre Knight hey you yea you. Hiii.
dmany13 hey dmany hows it going?
Moment of Craving in the sideboard :D Someone knew Seth loves it
I hope you play this, looks super sweet!
This deck really looks awesome and much more fun to watch than all those panharmonicon and sunbird invocation decks.
sometimes seth has to have fun too
Architect of the Untamed seems fun in this deck...
Also, Enter the Unknown, Ghirapur Orrery
Been playing a monogrern version of this, so much fun

OMG, play this ! It looks awesome !
Great deck, keep up the good work!!!
Seth this looks cool!! please play it on camara!
PLAY IT PLEASE. SO curious to see how this holds up
This deck looks fun Seth! Play it! That is all.
I’d love to see this played
Needs more Tendershoot Dryad
Nice! I'll probably give it a shot next week's FNM.
I'd love to see this played! Or play it myself :)
Play this deck Seth, looks sweet!

I like it! Play this, I kinda wanna see how this goes.
This is everything I want to be doing in standard
This seems sweet
It feels like winding constrictor has enough synergy in this deck to be played
Abzan! Play this one! Looks fun and good...
been playing this deck minus the white, its super competitive, good vs aggro and control with 2 carnage tyrants.
Does anyone think this could drop white? It's just running three cards with white in the casting cost and none in the sideboard. IX Binding is very good, but is it (plus one Ajani) really worth playing white for? Would really love anyone else's thoughts on this. Thanks.
Deck is sweet but you should tweak it a bit and play it on camera. Main deck nissa over ajani and the fourth ballista seem like obvious choices.
Deck looks amazing
Yes! Midrange needs more love
I wish we still had the get good monster
Gitrog would be sweet!
What about world shaper
this looks pretty cool
Id like to see how it works
I think this needs a thaumatic compass or 2 in the board
This deck is super sweet
PLAY IT!! its glorious

Why is it playing white just for ajani? I like replacing ajani with a nissa and cutting white
This deck looks cool !

Man that thumbnail is so cute
Deck is sweet. Please play this
I really like this deck, but it seems to revolve around Ranunap excavator too much
This looks like my Gitrog Monster budget modern deck.
Looks sweet, play it
"To grind out val....ue" Lol
Do this deck. It is awesome.
Play this!
I want to see Swordtooth turn 3, Hour turn 4 and attack with Swordtooth
You're not A damn olive who in their right mind would ever want to be called that unless that's your actual name
Do ittt.
Put nissa in the 60 and play it.
do this one
ahaha 3:32 val - you
I like abzan.
play this one
Make a modern version of it
Cai GuiHuang Have you ever heared of GW value town?
I was working on a modern version of this with Azusa and Gitrog Monster, but it didn't feel like there was a ton more power than a standard version.
play this, pplease
i like this

Ash Barrens is not legal in standard.
