I have been netdecking various sources for Modern decklists for a while and finally I have found something I could maybe work on and test if I find the money to invest for it. The deck would be monogreen Tron.
Manabase could be: 12x Tron 11-12x Forest 1x Eye of Ugin 1-2x Ghost Quarter
Ramp package could consist of: Explore Wall of Roots Overgrown Battlement Devoted Druid Expedition Map Nest Invader Oracle of Mul Daya
Ramp/Tooth and Nail targets: Tooth and Nail (of course) Primeval Titan Emrakul, the Aeons Thorn Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre Flame-Kin Zealot Terastodon Wurmcoil Engine
+ Some amount of Beast Within as a targeted removal
Sideboard options I haven't thought yet. I guess Affinity is common deck and luckily green has lots of options for it from Creeping Corrosion to Naturalize...
Grumpy (or anyone) got any thoughts about this kind of archetype? How would you build the deck? (Also how much this would cost in modo?)

How would you build the deck? (Also how much this would cost in modo?) If I was to build this deck honestly. It would look something like this I think. Lands 27 13 Forest 12 Urza lands 1 Ghost Quarter 1 Eye of Ugin Creatures 18 4 primeval titan 1 Emrakul 1 Ulamog 1 Flame-kin Zealot 3 Oracle of Mul Daya 4 Wall of Roots 4 Overgrown Battlement Spells 15 3 Beast Within 4 Explore 4 Tooth and Nail 4 Expedition Map Sideboard 3 Mindbreak Trap (storm is really popular online i think) 3 Tormod's Crypt 2 Creeping Corrosion 2 Kitchen Finks 2 Obstinant Baloth 3 Seal of Primordium The seals are for bloodmoon, and the sideboard could use some work. It looks very close to owen's list as you can tell, but that is the way I would build it. Wouldn't mind being able to fill a terastodon in there somewhere though.

It's a solid list, though I'd probably go Red/Green for things like Ancient Grudge, Firespout and Vexing Shusher out of the board. A lone Avenger of Zendikar may be fun too for that Primeval Titan/Tooth and Nail package. Might be too cute. Iona and Painter's Servant as a Tooth and Nail pull seems like a good option against a lot of deck, though maybe just out of the sideboard. I'd probably use Sylvan Scrying instead of Expedition Map. Not sure about the Oracle. Sakura-Tribe Elder perhaps?
Thing is, the deck is somewhat soft to disruption and even with ramp it might just be too slow... there's a reason why ramp decks are rarely played in eternal formats. I feel like you would need to focus on one aspect of the deck: ramp or Tron. Having it both ways just mean that your deck is full of lands and ramp, and not a whole lot of game.
