[Modern] Kiki, the harbinger

Kiki, the harbinger

A kiki control deck that uses nahiri as a card engine but can also tutor for a missing combo piece to end the game while also being a must answer threat as the opponent doesnt know that we dont have emrakul

Hi! I really like this deck because it reminds me of the old Twinless Twin decks that just threaten to combo off while being super aggressive with Snapcaster Mages. Obviously, this is a little different because you actually have the combo, but are just threatening a different one, which i think s brilliant. Let them waste their Celestial Purge on Nahiri instead of Kiki.

I was wondering if you'd considered Ojutai's Command? as a 1 or 2 of, even if just in the sideboard. The versatility is huge, and being able to flash bring back a dead Snapcaster Mage or Wall of Omens can be a huge shock to your opponent (plus whatever other mode you go with). Just something to think about. 

Good luck with the deck! Happy Hunting :)

Ive not actually thought of O-command but it is an idea, right now i have a geist package in the SB to convert to a geist control deck, SB atm is:
3 geist of st traft
1 spellskite
2 anger of the gods
1 engineered explosives
1 batterskull
1 pia and kiran nalaar
2 negate
2 vandalblast
2 dispel.

What would you cut sb or mb for O-command

In the MB, the only thing that really jumps out is the 4 Mana Leak. that seems like a lot, and running 3 and an O Command may prove more useful.
Only other place it might fit would be in the 4th Lightning Helix slot?
As for sideboard, maybe one in place of a Dispel (just because you already have the Snare and Pierce Main).

also, just in case you were unaware, you can include the sideboard in the deck list itself by adding it like this:
It will place the sideboard off to the side and mark it.
//Sideboard
SB: 1 Spellskite
SB: 2 anger of the gods
SB: 1 engineered explosives
SB: 1 batterskull
SB: 1 pia and kiran nalaar
SB: 2 negate
SB: 2 vandalblast
SB: 2 dispel.
