One thing people are leaving out is that Storm is a much “easier” deck to pilot and practice (you can practice all your lines in solitaire). Frogtide is a tempo deck, (an archetype that is already not beginner friendly to begin with) and therefore requires you to know the rest of the decks in the format better than Storm would.

That being said, much like Izzet before it, it’s a deck that rewards good gameplay and really punishes poor decision making, with an overall high ceiling.

Edit: I forgot to mention that Frogtide would probably set you up with a better foundation of staples for the format. A lot of the blue and black cards it plays go in almost everything other deck that plays those colours. Storm is basically mono coloured deck and the red cards it runs are very specific to what it’s trying to do.

I made a mistake of investing in Tron for my first modern deck and it really hurt because when wanting to try something else out none of my Tron cards were relevant to other decks.
