I'm fine with maindeck Standstills, because you need to be seriously behind on board to make it a bad idea. If they don't actually have Delver or Vial out, you're probably safe just going t2...

I got some byes for Denver on Sunday with this list:

Main Deck
4 Swords To Plowshares
4 Brainstorm
3 Spell Pierce
3 Counterbalance
3 Standstill
2 Counterspell
1 Crucible of Worlds

Actually, I got pretty greedy and decided to run 4 tops, for the old 25 land, 62-card special. I would run it back, except swapping a Standstill in for an Entreat. I might cut Entreat all together,...

Played a hybrid of Miracles and Landstill to top 8 where I split today. Did not drop a game.

UWr Landstill
4 Flooded Strand
1 Misty Rainforest
1 Marsh Flats
3 Tundra
3 Volcanic Island

I've been trying to jam counterbalance and standstill into one deck for months now, and I came up with the following list, which I used to win a Mox on Sunday.

Sorcery [2]
2 Terminus...

Sorcery [2]
2 Terminus
Instant [15]
1 Enlightened Tutor
4 Brainstorm
4 Force of Will
2 Counterspell
4 Swords to Plowshares
Enchantment [9]
1 Oblivion Ring

I run Landstill with Counter-Top main, and my current sideboard is:

3 Vendilion Clique
2 Enlightened Tutor
1 Batterskull
1 Circle of Protection: Red
1 Wheel of Sun And Moon
1 Tormod's Crypt...

Split top 4 in a 39 person tourney today.

2 Jace, the Mind Sculptor
2 Elspeth, Knight Errant
1 Decree of Justice
1 Crucible of Worlds
2 Wrath of God
2 Engineered Explosives
2 Sensei's...

Elspeth is really good at establishing inevitability, and doesn't eat it to pyroblast, and gives you another out to Thrun, and is a faster clock than Jace a lot of the time.

Made top 8 at a 40ish person tourney with Landstill today.

2 Jace, the Mind Sculptor
2 Elspeth, Knight Errant
1 Moat (borrowed, probably better as Wrath 2)
1 Humility
1 Crucible of Worlds

Just picked up some Jaces, want to try a fairly classic list out. Any glaring oversights in this one?

2 Jace, the Mind Sculptor
2 Elspeth, Knight Errant
1 Decree of Justice
