Windbrisk Heights - Land

So when I saw this card spoiled, I figured their had to be some deck that utilized it. I always liked blue splash white weenie in vintage that ran ancestral and time walk. It was not exactly a tier one deck, nor will this be, but it might be fun.

Card text: Hideaway (This land comes into play tapped. When it does, look at the top four cards of your library, remove one from the game face down, then put the rest on the bottom of your library.)
Tap: Add W to your mana pool.
W, Tap: You may play the removed card without paying its mana cost if you attacked with three or more creatures this turn.

So given that you have 3 men committed to the board and swinging, the question is what can you do in order to out and out win from that position. I figure time stretch is a good bet.

Card text: Target player takes two extra turns
after this one.

So here is the tentative list I have put together. It’s not very good, and I am hoping some people who have some experience with WW can chime in.

Force of Will 4
Brain Storm 4
Swords to Plowshares 4
Time Stretch 2
Mystic Tutor 3
Windbrisk Heights 3

Silver Knight 4
Raise the Alarm 4
Galina's Knight 4
Tarmagoyf 4
Weathered Wayfarer 4
Umezawa's Jitte 3

Flooded Strand 4
Windswept Hearth 4
Tundra 4
Savanna 2
Plains 3

What I like about this deck it that two turns is enough time to replay the combo, if need be. Also, Jitte is gross with any kind of sustained swings that this deck could provide. Is this Idea still-born? Strictly casual?

Thanks for any feed back in advance.

Seems good, idk if 3 colors is the best approach, I personally would probably stick to U/w. Raise the Alarm seems really janky.

4 Flying Men
4 Stormscape Apprentice (maybe a bit jank, but taps Goyf)
4 Looter Il-Kor
4 Meddling Mage
4 Serendib Effreet

4 Brainstorm
4 Force of Will
4 Swords to Plowshares
3 Jitte
3 Mystical Tutor
2 Timestretch

5 Island
4 Flooded Strand
4 Windbrisk Heights
4 Tundra
2 Polluted Delta
1 Plains


Would take the deck in a more Blue based direction and make most of the beaters evasive in one form or another. It seems like it would have a pretty solid combo match up, and probably would do pretty good vs Thresh.

Doesen't Wasteland rain on this decks parade? I love the idea but I think there are to many ways to disrupt the combo.

Wasteland and/or Predict = owned :frown:

Would be fun to play around with though could maybe work it to more viable.

@Predict: Sensei's Divining Top could hide your Stretch (activate Top again in response to Predict), and Brainstorm can bury it below a card in response to Predict, or pull it into hand if Top/Heights aren't online.

Wasteland does spoil the party though... Pithing Needle or Stifle perhaps?
