It’s time for another What’s the Play? this time involving Death’s Shadow Aggro in Modern. It’s always an interesting deck for these exercises, and this particular scenario is a good one. It came up for Julien during an MTGO PTQ in a post-board game against Dredge.

Note that there is a Vengeful Pharaoh in the opponent’s graveyard, as that makes this an interesting puzzle indeed.
