Terminus anyone? Sure, they get their extra turn. For what?

Or you can attack their mana-base:

1) Vindicate (as suggested above) can do what Detention Sphere and the like can't - destroy...

Starting with a 1/3 creature, the effects are applied in this order:

Layer 7a - nothing
Layer 7b - nothing
Layer 7c - -0/-1 is applied -> it's a 1/2 creature
Layer 7d - nothing
Layer 7e - P/T...

Sounds good.

At least it's the only card that functions similarly and has a reasonable casting cost. The downside is that especially BUG won't have too much trouble paying the 2 extra mana.

Thanks!

Yes, I have considered EE + Ruins, but not in this version. I can't see any slots for it in my list.

Anyway, there are two problems with EE.

a) EE gets better with more colors....

Yes. My black splash, however, is not primariliy about discard (just in the sb vs combo etc), but for Vindicate. I was looking for a replacement of Detention Sphere, which just doesn't stick against...

Autochthon Wurm

Neither a creature to cast, nor to cheat into play. But still the most broken combo-enabler.

Well, apart from the story itself, it is still a good name for the deck, since all the cards work very well together. There are so many little synergies, interactions and complex plays.

UW-Miracle:
EOT Terminus, untap, Jace, win.

Burn:
Seven Bolts by turn three.

Happens. Even if you have a 90:10 matchup, it means that you lose 10% of your games. Well, unfortunately that was one of them.

Yes. My first try on this archetype was a creatureless variant with tutors, toolbox and Mishras.

You mean G2?

His opponent had Grafdigger's Cage online.

Sorry, but what exactly are you suggesting here?

You can't choose two different values for X as you cast Chalice. And if you choose X=1, the CMC is 2, so it can be hit by Spell Snare.

Defeats Goblins. Well, it did.

Faerie Stompy
In fact, Mono Blue Suicide

Dragon Stompy

My first casual-deck was a mono blue combo-deck including the deadly Jester's Cap + Reito Lantern + Tunnel Vision kill. :cool:

1) Solidarity
2) RW-Rifter

All of them have been mentioned before.

Incorrect.

Adding and removing abilities takes place in the same layer. Therefore timestamp decides what happens.

Yes! David Gearhart did.

But wait - he is only the inventor of the deck, see the opening post of the thread for decklist and explanation.

I didn't know that this concept already exists, but I'm currently working on a setup which is not too far away from yours. So I hope you don't mind if I post it here.

A creature dies if its toughness is 0, and this is checked (state-based-actions) whenever a player would get priority.



To check the toughness of a creature, you apply all the effects that you...

Solidarity (more classy) or Spiral Tide (stronger).

Pros:
Both are mono-blue.
New editions hardly ever bring relevant new cards.
Both are combo-decks that can ignore the meta.
