Well, there's Pull from Eternity, which takes a face-up exiled card and puts it in it's owner's graveyard, if that works. It's white. The only other thing besides the two that were mentioned that interact with exiled cards I think are Clockspinning and Misthollow Griffin, which are both blue. The exile zone is supposed to be unreachable, which is why so few cards can interact with it.

Pull from Eternity seems useful. Not amazing , but like you said, exile recovery is few and far between, so i'll take what I can get. I just want to have SOME type of answers when people Bojuka Bog or Relic of Progenitus me. My Karador Commander deck needs it's graveyard, lol. It loses alot of steam when the dead creatures are exiled...
And if no one exiles my stuff, I can always get my Praetor's Council back, or slow Jhoira down, lol.

Also, Apostle's Blessing was made for this deck. all your creatures are fragile little 1/1s, so being able to protect it, or even give a relevant protection to make it unblockable, is vital. Plus, since you're running Wild Defiance, it sets that off, too.
I just did this and oh my gosh! It really made my day!
My Infect deck had its maiden flight and it did really well (aside from the times where I get 0 land in the opening draw)
A lot of the people that I played with got really surprised by Apostle's Blessing. Especially, those times where I only have 2 life or one more hit and they have a lot of blockers.
I actually had more fun with this deck than my reanimate deck.
This really made my day. Thank you very much for recommending this, quoting my opponents "stupid cheap card"

Yeah, like I said, it was made for the deck. In the monogreen variant, you have no evasion except for Inkmoth, so Apostle's Blessing was key for either protecting your creatures, or getting through. And, yeah, as you've seen, it can win out of nowhere.
Glad it worked out well for you.
On another subject:
Right now, me and my friend are trying to think up a new Robots deck. There's already a red version that runs things like Galvanic Blast and Shrapnel Blast, and there's a blue version that has Thoughtcast and Master of Etherium.
We were shocked though that none ran Dispatch, which we thought would be premium removal. So, we're trying to fit that in. My friend suggested we just fit all three colors, make an America (RWU) variant, but I couldn't fit all of them, so it just turned into a Boros variant (RW) for now.
Our list so far (not at all finalized, neither of us is satisfied with it yet):
Spoiler:
EDIT: Snivy: So, a kind of Green-Red Goblins deck? Seems like an aggresive one.

Ah affinity (or robots as the boring people call it..I dislike the trend of modern players renaming pre-established decks just to make themselves feel better).
You run Inkmoth Nexus or Blinkmoth, not both, believe it or not, you do actually want colored mana at times, also Thoughtcast is really good in this deck...like no joke, never cut it. Draw 2 for U (effectively), if you can find a better draw spell for that in modern (I assume), drop me a line.
Won a local legacy tourney today (or yesterday was it, damn midnight ^_^) with gobbos netting another Chrome Mox, yaaaay.

Niiiiiiiice.
And yeah, I REALLY wanna fit thoughtcast in this deck. It's 2/3s an Ancestrall Recall, only drawback being that it's sorcery speed. It was something my friend was disappointed in me cutting, since we were going for RWU, but since I couldn't fit it, I cut our blue. (I'm building it on cockatrice and we're just talking about it as I go through punching stuff in.)
It'll also give me the ability to run Master of Etherium. Though we like Etched Champion better because it basically has protection from removal.
The list is on the previous page, any help you can give us?

*facepalm* I don't need cards to get my exiled stuff back. I just need to use cards that say "Name a card. That card cannot be played" or the like. I don't there are any in Karador's colors, but there should be artifacts (like Pithing Needle).

Meddlling Mage can't be in Karador though. Nevermore seems good.
I tried my new Olivia voltron deck today and it got destroyed u_u.
This one stupid guy kept countering and killing her off right when I played her, while the other guy kept destroying my other stuff. Why? I have no idea.....it sucks being hated out of a game Q_Q. My other decks did fine tho.

I'm trying to build a mill deck just for fun.
I want to put some spell counters in it.
Which is better, Counterspell or Rewind? or Just 2 of each?

You need the most efficient control elements you can get in a mill deck, because your win condition takes much longer to achieve. For that reason, Counterspell. You want to constantly be casting mill spells, while keeping enough mana open at the end of your turn to ensure you can cast some control spells. Rewind requires you to keep four up, which is too much, unless you have something like Sands of Delirium to dump all your mana into if there isn't anything worth countering or distrupting.
At least, that's how I build mill decks. It's basically a control deck that taps out each turn, having something to dump leftover mana into if I didn't end up using it during my opponent's turn.

This is one of the funniest match I've ever played. My opponent was using a Black/Blue Zombie standard deck and I'm using a Mill deck.
My opponent used Zombie Apocalypse so she got a butload of zombies. Heck, her Unbreathing Hordes are 18/18 and I immediately took 6 damage from Geralfs. However, 2 cards are still left in her library.
I then remembered I have 3 mana and a Dream Twist in the graveyard.

Lol, nice.
You got the nice Modern Counterpells, too. Memory Adept is obviously really good for the deck. Fog Bank was a nice idea, it isn't in mine. Phantasm's cool, the card that made me wanna build a Standard mill deck. Can't tell what that card oon the right is...
In any case, yeah, zombies is pretty bad for the deck because they like having stuff in the grave, but when your deck is efficient enough, it may not matter. You just mill them out so fast.

Card on the right? That would be Dream Twist and Sanity Grinding.
Oh, you have no idea how shocked I am when he activated the Zombie Apocalypse. I really thought I'm done.
Actually, I prefer the old Counterspells. Usually when I use Counterspells I say "It was probably a lousy spell anyway/in the first place."
I like saying the flavor text if it is good.
There was actually a round where I activated 2 Archive Trap when she activated Evolving Wilds. She was really pissed off.
I actually want to use Painter's servant and Grindstone but I think it'll take all the fun away.

I just like the art and Modern card frame for Counterspell. I do love that flavor text, too.
Ah, Sanity Grinding looks really interesting, I've only seen it once before and didn't take a good look at it. Seems like an interesting one for the deck.
I like archive trap, but in our casual playgroup, it's too situational, since no one except my friends uncles plays many fetchlands do much fetching of stuff, and that uncle doesn't use his tournament decks against us cus that'd be no fun.

Actually, I only have 2 Archive Trap in my deck. If no fetching done, I'll just activate it if I'm still alive or have no other choice. I actually won one round when my opponent only had 12 cards in his deck and I still have 1 life.
Sanity Grinding is kinda a gamble. You mill a lot with it then that means you put a lot of those cards, which might be good, at the bottom of your library.

But you then mill you opponent for a ton, if you're lucky. And besides, those kind of gambles is what make Magic fun. At least for me, I like taking chances.
On another note, tried a Storm deck for the first time against my friend on Cockatrice. It was the one used by StarCityGames members during the Pro Tour RtR. It's a really fun deck, but tricky. there's a lot to keep track of.
