I have rerun the algorithm for Modern with MH1 data and improvements to the land counts:

40_Merfolk Mono Modern Generated Deck_15_10 7 Wins(0 Byes)-0 Losses-0 Ties => 21 Points
31_Modern Slivers Sliver Generated Deck_35_19 6 Wins(0 Byes)-1 Losses-0 Ties => 18 Points
20_Martyr Mono White Generated Deck_33_19 6 Wins(0 Byes)-1 Losses-0 Ties => 18 Points
30_Mono Black Devotion Generated Deck_34_19 4 Wins(0 Byes)-3 Losses-0 Ties => 12 Points

These are the winning decks (now available in the Genetic Algorithm AI Decks netdecks section in Forge)

That top deck is very strong:

Great deck.
Playing against this deck is a lot of fun.
Mono Black is very tough.

I'm glad if there are also decks in the Pauper format.
