[Deck] Dreadstill - Enter the Fist

[frustanani]

[color=purple]When is the correct window to hit them with the Waste, if Thespian's is a "Basic Land" copy when it attempts to copy Depths?

The thing is that dark depth decks use wasteland too.
Their gameplan is to play Thespian's Stage and make it unwastable as soon as they can copying Swamp, Forest or one of your basics. They also have mana acceleration to do it (like Mox Diamond). Yes, you can hit dark depth in response to the Thespian's Stage activation. But if you are a deck non giving them a fast clock, they can
- wait to find a Wasteland to get rid of your Wasteland before playing Dark depth
- or if they have also Vampire Hexmage on the field they sacrifice in response to your wastelanding in response to their activation
- they crop rotation in response and find another Dark Depth and not loosing the Stage
- some play 4 pithing needle, some even maindeck https://www.tcdecks.net/deck.php?id=31934&iddeck=275947
For these reasons I suggested a split between Wasteland and Ghost Quarter.
NOTE: Thespian's Stage after copying a basic land, is a basic land (unwastable) with still the ability to copy somthing.

Myself, I stopped playing magic in 2012 and started again this year. Last decks I was playing were these
(miracle with counter-top, canadian threshold and maverik metagames)
https://www.tcdecks.net/deck.php?id=8557&iddeck=62434
https://www.tcdecks.net/deck.php?id=8185&iddeck=59700
but now, most of those cards are not playable anymore (except maybe for the angel but the side)

Some cards that COULD be interesting in your deck can be
- Brazen Borrower because of its versatility
- Psionic Blast kills planeswalker istant speed, most creatures and can kill opponent 1 turn faster
- Ponder is a card your list need to be more agile and set up your plays and find lands (not to draw dreadnought when you don't want it for example of to hide 2 from the top a bomb you don't want to be discarded by thoughtseize ...)
- Arcum's Astrolabe solves you the mana color problems
- Mystic Sanctuary to fetch when you want a Stifle back (maybe you have a Nought) or a Swords to Plowshares back (if the manabase gets ok).

(I would cut at least Verdicts and put them in the side)

This is what I'll test next turnament, a modified versione of the deck I made 4-0 last month in a Turin turnament
(was 4th time in a row I win the local weekly turnament with mono U even with different lists, sometimes with Standstill and Mishra, Bolas, or with Trinket)
But I haven't found a build so far I like with the 12/12. But now there are new interesting cards.
