    I suppose a confident pilot playing against an opponent who lacks wins the day here...well done, and with a deck that seems horrifically metagame dependant.

    This should cement into people's minds the fact that any deck can beat any other deck at any time. Variance can sometimes be fantastic...

    Congrats, dude. This deck is very cool.

    I'm thinking it could use Isochron Scepter. And Windswept Heath. No dual lands, though--gotta keep the snow land count as high as possible!

    Uh-mazing.

    Scepter seems like a must in this strategy. So brutal.

    Still, I couldn't help think that what this deck really craves is Fog Bank. The card does everything AND has the word "fog" in the title (AND depicts dinosaurs so stoned that they might collapse without warning).

    Not convinced? Lemme drop some knowledge: This link is called "Science."

    Then, once you're in blue, you can play brainstorm (which has killer synergy with Terramorphic Expanse) and possibly even Energy Field.

    @ Fog Bank:

    Looks like a pretty normal Philosoraptor discussion... .

    I dont think that the decklists really is that unstable or blue is a suggestion for it Energy Field doesnt combo as well with each card of the deck and Brainstorm isnt that necessary also.
    Enlightened Tutor and Eldrazis (I personally prefer Legacy Weapon as not going out of cards, well just because the deck is indeed the Legacy weapon) are the best changes which could possibily made.
    Regardless, this deck is quite the brew. I hope so badly that this report isnt fake (can someone please confirm that, for the sake of all those who got trolled a million times, please confirm that story).
    The deck might look pretty awkward in terms of powerlevel, but really isnt. I like every single card in it and every card makes sense.
    I cant help myself, that story awoke something in me. Next tourney Mono-Green-Control (MGC, bioatches) or something, I am literally blown away from that report, no, seriously.
    I am wondering how long it takes that this goes straight to the DTB forum... .

    In response...Hypothek!

    I think 4eak's post pretty much summed up how reacted too. This report is awesome, inspiring, funny, crazy...I could go on and on, haha. Time to build a rogue deck and take my local metagame by storm.

    I REALLY hope this is not a troll.

    Also this report/deck are completely awesome.

    This deck is certainly not a troll; anyone who is dedicated enough to play Sunstone isn't putting you on.

    Unreal. Time to front-run Font of Mythos before it gets hyped...

    Freaking amazing.

    When he boarded in Sunstone I had to look it up, then almost fell out of my chair laughing. Awesome stuff.

    Re: 5-0 with turbofog

    I don't understand why there's not a reshuffle effect main. I suppose it's not crucial or anything, but a random Emrakul seems like it would be pretty powerful here. Especially in terms of helping you win before time if you don't win g1. Like against the mono-blue player it would have been very powerful.

    Cool deck though. Big props on Sunstone. Not sure why there's Terramorphic Expanses though.

    Also needs Kor Havens.

    Re: 5-0 with turbofog

    This is not a troll I think. Even if it was, the deck is still viable. I've tested it a bit online, with 4 Isochron Scepter in place of Peace Talks and without Terramorphic Expanse.

    I tell you, it's pretty hard for any non-blue aggro deck to win against this deck. And if you think combo is a bad matchup, try beating 4 Angel's Grace + 4 Orim's Chants + 4 Isochron Scepter + 4 White Leylines with Combo. Pretty hard task.

    I've found blue tempo decks to be the worst matchup, aside from Emrakul decks pre board. Tempo decks can counter your early stuff (Spell Snare for Scepter etc) and beat you down pretty fast. Discard-heavy decks are bad if you don't open with Leyline.


    All in all, awesome deck. Good job!

    Seems legit!

    Re: 5-0 with turbofog

    The report looks legit to me as well. The first thing that popped into my head when I saw the 5-0 was thinking you got very lucky by dodging combo and Jace for five rounds. But you managed to beat both, well done!

    So he grabbed Chain of Vapor from his wishboard to bounce back my enchantment.
    Burning Wish doesn't grab instants. You better watch that guy next time you play. By the sound of his behavior it looks like he intentionally cheated there.
