Belcher has been a fairly prevalent, very explosive (turn 1 wins), but extremely fragile deck in legacy because of the card Force of Will. Legacy belcher is also expensive because of 4 copies of Lion's Eye Diamond. The absence of these cards in modern make the deck cheaper and less likely to be disrupted.

Most of the other (LAME) modern belcher decks play Lotus Bloom to get to 7 mana for Goblin Charbelcher but turn 4 is just too slow! This deck aims to turn 3, a turn faster than the 'good' (LAME) decks of the metagame. HELP MAKE THIS THE MOST POPULAR MODERN BELCHER DECK ON THE SITE

If you want a break from the LAME popular modern decks and you love to brew, COMBO and not break the bank then this is the deck for you!
The COMBO Part 1 (How to Win Game 1)

Step 1: Mulligan a lot. There are very few ways to get from 0 to 1 mana because we can only play 3 lands, therefore you must mulligan most hands without a land, Chancellor of the Tangle or Simian Spirit Guide + Wild Cantor although keeping a hand with many cyclers (Gitaxian Probe and Street Wraith) can be tempting.

Step 2: Search out all of your lands. Use Lay of the Land , Caravan Vigil (which is a COMBO with Wild Cantor for morbid) and Safewright Quest (which can get Dryad Arbor to COMBO with Infernal Plunge).

Step 3: Make 7 mana. Cast rituals and Magus of the Vineyard to get to seven mana.

Step 4: Cast Goblin Charbelcher. Using the 15 cards that draw (Gitaxian Probe , Street Wraith , Manamorphose , Faithless Looting) to burn through your deck to find one. To reliably Goblin Charbelcher your opponent you need all of the lands out of your deck but you can usually get there with 1 left, and besides, who doesn't love a good sweat .

Step 5: Activate your Goblin Charbelcher and watch your opponent cry as they didn't get to play magic. Goblin Charbelcher + No lands in deck = COMBO

What do you do against sideboard hosers such as Leyline of Sanctity and Stony Silence? We do Azami, Lady of Scrolls + Laboratory Maniac .
Sideboarding (The NEXT LEVEL)

After game 1 we want to NEXT LEVEL our opponent so when they bring in cards to beat our maindeck we completely transform into a legacy-style "Oops All Spells" (All Spells, Zero Lands, Turn One Win: BOOM)

-4 Goblin Charbelcher (Gets stopped by many sideboard hosers)

-4 Street Wraith -4 Gitaxian Probe (Cut the cyclers because we don't need them to draw to the 4 kil cards maindeck, we are bringing in 8 kill cards.

-1 Dryad Arbor (We are bringing in the 4 Balustrade Spys that can be sacrificed to Infernal Plunge and a Swamp as the third land that can cast the kill cards instead)
Who needs the other 2 sideboard slots? Not me. The 2 Storm Crow are to accidently drop during sideboarding to throw your opponent off the trail (PLUS THEY ARE THE MOST OP CARDS IN MAGIC). Your opponent will assume you are just a country troll and don't have a sideboard and then they will get rekt

+4 Balustrade Spy (The COMBO)

+4 Undercity Informer (The COMBO)

+1 Unburial Rites (The COMBO)

+1 Angel of Glory's Rise (The COMBO)

+1 Azami,Lady of Scrolls (The COMBO)

+1 Laboratory Maniac (The COMBO)

+1 Swamp (To cast the Balustrade Spys and Undercity Informers)
The COMBO Part 2 (How to Win Game 2)
NEXT LEVEL Your Opponent

-Step 1: Mulligan. Much the same as mainboard but you need to get to 8 mana post-board so you need to be more aggressive when mulliganing.

-Step 2: Step 2: Search out all of your lands. Make sure to search out the Swamp to cast a Undercity Informer or a Balustrade Spy.

-Step 3: Make 8 mana. Cast rituals alongside Magus of the Vineyard to get up to 8 mana (you need a White mana, a Black mana and 6 colorless mana for the COMBO).

-Step 4: Turn over your deck. Cast a Balustrade Spy for 4 mana or a Undercity Informer for 3 and then activate it's ability sacrificing itself, ALWAYS TARGET YOURSELF WITH THE MILL. You have no lands left in deck at this point so you mill your whole deck. With 8 copies of the kill and 7 draw spells (3 Faithless Looting and 4 Manamorphose) it will be easier to find one than the 4 Goblin Charbelchers maindeck.

-Step 5: The COMBO. (You need a White mana and 3 colorless for this part. (Keep in mind you can cast Balustrade Spy with a Red mana and a White mana open and then cast Infernal Plunge, sacrificing the Balustrade Spy to get to the necessary 4 mana, this is yet another COMBO). With the 4 mana, flashback Unburial Rites targeting Angel of Glory's Rise. When the Angel of Glory's Rise enters it returns Azami, Lady of Scrolls and Laboratory Maniac to play. With no cards left in your deck you can tap Azami, Lady of Scrolls to draw a card using her ability. Laboratory Maniac then causes you to win the fame, COMBO. If your opponent tries to kill the Laboratory Maniac in response you can tap him to draw another card in response still winning the game. (Keep in mind if you happen to draw any of the 4 COMBO pieces you can discard them to Faithless Looting because you need all 4 in the graveyard to COMBO)
The COMBO Part 3 (How to Win Game 3)
Next Level Your Opponent Again (Now 2 Levels Ahead of Them)

Hopefully we win both game 1 and 2 with no interaction because thats how you keep your friends, but if somehow our flawless game plan fails and we have to play a third game we have a plan.

After game 2 watch to see if your opponent goes back to their sideboard. If they switch multiple cards then transform BACK into the original Goblin Charbelcher wincon. Now your opponent has Rest in Peaces, Relic of Progenituses, Nihil Spellbombs and Leyline of the Voids in their deck and you are free to kill them with Goblin Charbelcher.

Thank you for reading about this arguably earth-shattering modern deck. Most normal people are talking to their friends about the fetchland reprint from Khans of Tarkir but if you are like me and you have a Brewing Obsession then this deck will be all you will be talking about for weeks to come. (Good luck explaining the complicated interactions without the cards in front of you!)

Please let me know what you think in the comments, but lets be real there is no way this deck could be any more perfect.
