1 [PLC] Chronozoa (fucking horrible. Name one instance for me when this isn't worse than drawing a land)
1 [CHK] Gifts Ungiven (banned)
1 [TE] Whispers of the Muse (fucking horrible. You play opportunity. Ditch this shit)
1 [JGC] Time Warp (WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! One turn is never going to do anything for you. Or, rather, it will. But I wouldn't pay 5 mana for it if you paid me to. Play time stretch if you're looking for time walks.)
1 [REW] Harmonize (you play way better draw. Also, tapping out is horrible. I'd cut concentrate too, but at elast that's within the color you want to have the most mana for)
1 [b] Control Magic (NO FUCKING WAY. Play one of the literally million better ways to deal with creatures. Like, it's okay. But you aren't even playing Trechery yet)
1 [M10] Ponder (But Zach! It messes with my top card! I honestly couldn't care less. I'd rather never Intet into anything cooler than... most of the other terrible cards I'm telling you to cut than have to play this weak ass card. Dude, remember - you can only have 100 cards in your deck. Quit throwing filler cards that don't do anything and have no huge effect on the game and run amazing shit)

I'm too bored to continue now but I'll come back later.

It's only my second EDH, so I don't feel bad about making those mistakes. Thanks for pointing 'em out, though I'd really like to keep playing Harmonize.

And yeah, Gifts is an epic brainfart, I've told a million of my friends that they can't play it. Durr.

What's better than Control Magic? By the way, the above list is missing Molten Disaster.

What's better than Control Magic?

Confiscate, Take Possession, Dominate, Gather Specimens, Desertion, Helm of Possession, Bribery, etc. Ah, well I see you have confiscate, but there are lots of choices.

Deck looks fun though. Although it seems light on board sweepers; I see only Inferno and Earthquake. Perhaps Starstorm or Savage Twister could help with that.

Cards to cut... Coiling Oracle seems cute but a little underpowered. Does Mind's Desire ever do much? Dunno about Compulsive Research either. Permanents that draw cards seem better, like Rhystic Study, blue Honden, Mind's Eye, etc.

Can't believe I forgot about Rhystic Study. Fucking love that card.

Going to drop C Magic and add some of the alternatives (though that'll probably crank the numbers even higher, but who really cares).

Mind's Desire is just something I want to try out. Might be wrong, might not be.

Edit: newest list is in the opening post.

Huh, somebody in a different EDH thread said Coiling Oracle was really good for them, so perhaps I don't know wtf I'm talking about re: that.

List in the OP is now 100 cards. Unplayed so far, so comment away. Also PM'ing Jak. as he mentions his own Intet deck.

Edit: cards I still want to fit in: Sol Ring

Ctrl+F finds a disturbing lack of Trinket Mage + Top. Top is one of the best cards with Intet as it sets up long term card quality and can set up what you hit with Intet.
That and I disagree with Zach on Time Warp but only in this deck as an extra turn means another free spell with Intet.

My list is disturbingly unfocused on Intet as an advantage engine, instead choosing to just run UGR goodstuff. I'll go up and edit the first post to put the right cards together now, just a second.

Are there any other good targets for T. Mage? Because I would like using Top in this deck, but not if it Mage can only get me Top, Crypt and Relic.

The first thing I want to say is my list is much different from yours. I ended up running a ton of counterspells. Now, this doesn't have to be the case at all, it's what I chose.

1 Izzet Chronarch
1 Eternal Witness
1 Duplicant
1 Woodfall Primus
1 Indrik Stomphowler
1 Sundering Titan
1 Memnarch

The main thing about my list is that I try to abuse Intet. Mystical Tutor, Worldly Tutor, Reclaim, Brainstorm, and Top. I would add more but I am 5 cards over 100 right now. More things would be Sylvan Library and Scroll Rack.

The main plan would be to combo out which might not be what you are looking for. This is why I stopped playing it. People didn't like it. I like your approach though, of adding more creatures that also do something like Thunder Dragon.

My only thoughts for your list would be to try to abuse Intet more and maybe play a little more control with some more of the better counters (Hinder, Dissipate, etc).

Good luck.

I try to keep down on the counters (even the "better" ones) in lieu of alternative control, because permission is not so very good in multiplayer (what I'm trying mostly) and because permission puts a target on my head I can't handle.^^

Has anyone considered Vedalken Orrery? It seems like it might be good with Intet's activated ability, dropping control magics/creatures at instant speed is always fun, although I'm not sure how many cards in the deck are instants or already have flash.

Just a thought

EDIT: Instant speed Woodfall Primus baby!

Sphinx of Jwar Isle seems good with Intet
