Hello guys it's that old pest from down here in Louisville, Ky. (Our football team sucks):frown: Anyway back with what I feel is a more focused version of stupid deck I posted long ago. Anyways I built this deck because I wanted to build a u/w/g creature control deck at one time. Funny my deck started looking like threshold. So I went with something original and decided on making u/g fish-like deck. I added living wish for the versatility of neo-removal and alternate win conditionns. I like threshold but I wanted to play instant buisness spells over cantrips. I also wanted to play more beaters. So I present to you Wonderfish aka Living Fish Redeux

Card by Card Analysis:
Wild Mongrel: Superb beater, Instant mana free discard outlet, Comboes with LIfe from the Loam and Wonder ala Living wish for the winand the inspiration of the deck's name
Basking Rootwalla:
1 drop for Lackey,Combos with Mongrel for a free instant creature, Cheap beater
Living Wish: Originally used for fun, but for practicality gets me Wonder without taking up deckspace with her. Neo-Removal (see Trygon P. and Waterfront Sloucher I mean Bouncer)
Nimble Mongoose: One drop for Lackey, I achieve Threshold by turn 5 with this deck regularly and a flying untargetable beater in the mid to late game for one mana, and they say Serra Avenger is hot?
Serendib Efreet: The best cheap flyer there is. Cant be bolted. Comes sometimes as an Early or Backup win condition. I wish my mana base could Support three.
Force of Will: no comment
Daze: Free Counterspell, Stolen tech from threshold and Madness, Also a possible turn 1 answer to Lackey if u are playing first.(vial as well)
Stifle: Another "counter" spell, Land denial of fetches, Another turn one answer to a Lackey activation on the play.
1 Remand: I don't know, maybe should be Misdirection or Jitte. Give me an opinion
Brainstorm: No comment
Standstill: Probably my most contoversial choice. The one i'll get flamed for
Yet it works so good with manlands and fast one drop creatures. My meta is goblins(w/o vial?!?), Survival, Random aggro, Minimal control, No Landstill.
Real Card Advantage.
Life from the Loam: Game Breaker, Card drawer, Land Saver, Land Killer, Man land Regrowth for three, Giant growth for Wild Mongrel. Card advantage.
Misra's Factories,Cycle Lands,Fetch Lands: To gain card advantage with LFTL
Misra's and Cycle lands combo with Standstill.
Basic lands: no comment
Resultz:
Goblins=50/50: I have Lackey stoppers but I can get over whelmed.
Threshold= 60/40 My favor if you doubt let's test on MWS
Survival=80/20 my favor
Solidarity=80/20 my favor, Stifle=MVP
Pikula= 70/30 My favor. I have more threats and LFTL saves you from land destruction.
i know this deck seems similar to Uber Madness but the concept is different
I'm taking this to a Legacy tournament next week I'll post resul
