    Heliod Stasis

    One of the cards im most pumped about in Modern horizons is Hall of Heliod's Generositty. I think this might be what it takes to make stasis a tier deck. Please do chime in with thoughts, improvements and suggestions for other enchantments.


    3x Teferi, Hero of Dominaria
    1x Teferi, Time Raveler
    2x Narset, Parter of Veils
    4x Stasis
    3x Porphyry Nodes
    4x Force of Will
    4x Daze
    2x Flusterstorm
    4x Brainstorm
    3x Ponder
    1x History of Benalia
    3x Swords to Plowshares
    2x Unexpectedly Absent
    1x Surgical Extraction
    4x Flooded Strand
    4x Prismatic Vista
    2x Tundra
    1x Volcanic Island
    2x Plains
    5x Island
    2x Forsaken City
    1x Karakas
    3x Hall of Heliod’s Generosity

    Sideboard:
    3x Rest in Peace
    3x Mystic Remora
    2x Eidolon of Rhetoric
    1x Humility
    1x Seal of Cleansing
    1x Mountain
    3x Pyroblast

    The main advantage of white and silly enchantments is playing as few actual copies of the dead draw enchant, enabled by Enlightened Tutor. Immediate improvement from -2 Stasis, +2 E Tutor. History of Benalia and 3rd copy of Heliod seem incorrect.

    Flooded Strand past two copies is worse than Scalding Tarn; you have SB Mountain. Your SB has 3x RiP and nothing to do with them; easy fix -1 RiP, +1 Helm. Eidolon and Remora are -5 SB slots.

    I've enjoyed Wilderness Reclamation in conjunction with Stasis. I appreciate being able to drop Stasis and then untap all my lands that same turn to hold up countermagic.

    I see you're running RiP in the side. Energy Field is a fun enchantment to play with RiP.

    Muddle the Mixture is a not-too-terrible counterspell that also lets you fetch your 2-CMC enchantments (including Stasis). Transmuting at sorcery speed sucks, but it's not as bad when you get to untap at EoT with Wilderness Reclamation.

    Re: Heliod Stasis

    Run 3-4 Enlightened Tutor. Between that and Brainstorm+Ponder you should be able to find whatever singletons you need. It will allow you to shave off many multiples in the maindeck and sideboard to have more good cards and less conditional draws.

    Cut the weak cards like Eidolon, History of Benalia, Remora, etc.

    Mystic Remora is much worse in Legacy than Vintage. Even UG Enchantress doesn't play it. If you expect a lot of spell-based decks, you could run 1 single copy in the SB (tutorable with E Tutor) but multiple Remoras just seems bad.

    Teferi, Hero of Dominaria is a great combo with Stasis but it's still 5 mana. Without any ramp and with 4 Daze, getting to 5 mana is hard. 2 copies should be enough.

    I second the 1xHelm of Obedience in the SB. If you're boarding in RiP anyway as grave hate, the 1x Helm just turns Enlightened Tutor into free wins.

    Surprised I dont see a hard lock with kismet.

    Also, i hear black vise is good when opponent cant cast spells and has a full hand.

    Tabernacles or the lesser know Pendrell mists can wipe the board in a pinch.
    Play 4 Card Blind!

    The B/R thread says otherwise.
