[Deck] Skybus (UWB Moat Control)

Why aren't you running Enlightened Tutor in a deck so heavily relient on so many enchantments?

EDIT: Also, why are you not running brainstorm on a deck that relies on Hoofprints of the Stag as it's wincon?

Why can't you read a decklist?

EDIT: Also, 11+ cantrips > E. Tutor.

I see the brainstorm now, however, I still say E Tutor would, at the very least, increase your clock, making it more viable.

I'm sad to say I never got this thing finely tuned, and now that I'm back in school, it may never happen. I could never quite figure out the perfect direction. The UW build was streamlined, but too slow for any practical applications. The deck runs a tight manabase, and is mana hungry with all the cantrips and Wishes, so it needs a win con like Bitterblossom. I could never get the mana base perfect in the 3C version, and never quite figured out the correct balance of Blossom/Hoofprints/Dragons, and if any other win cons were worthy.

Despite that, the deck won a lot thanks to the power of quad Moats, and CB (which it can find faster than most control decks thanks to the addition of Ponder).

Did you never think to include a few Tombstalkers as wincons?
