Is Seismic Assault Taking Over Modern?

After the recent Modern bannings, the format was in upheaval, but seemed to have settled into a fairly stable space. Or did it? Despite the metagame having every macro archetype represented and nothing seeming too strong, nearly the entire format revolves around creatures. We don't have Fury anymore, but we do have Seismic Assault! Incredible deck-builder cftsoc3 rocked Gerry and Dave's world with a take on their beloved Indomitable Creativity list, now with Seismic Assault and Life from the Loam. The boys are in love, but will it lead to heartbreaks or a happy ending? Plus, we have a new sponsor, HeavyPlay! They're a card gaming accessories brand, with innovative takes on playmats, deck boxes, and sleeves. Most notably, their products feature their EquipMAG System, which you allows you to magnetically attach your deck box, dice tray, and playmat to each other. Gerry and Dave are both accessory snobs, but love HeavyPlay's stuff, will happily be using it at their future events, and wouldn't have accepted the sponsorship (or used their products) if they didn't. You can find them at heavyplay.com or on any social media site @HeavyPlayLLC.
