I was discussing a GB lantern deck in the modern section and I suggested Smallpox for that strategy. It dawned on me: why not merge Lantern Control with Pox in Legacy? Pox is already a prison deck that struggles with top-deck battles. Lantern is a prison strategy that has a primary goal of controlling top decks. The overlap card could easily be Ensnaring Bridge. Essentially just play the Pox game then windmill slam a Lantern + Codex Shredder to keep them from top-decking anything relevant.

Just a rough list to get the conversation started:

4x Lantern of Insight
4x Codex Shredder
4x Pyxis of Pandemonium
2x Pithing Needle
3x Ensnaring Bridge
3x Mox Opal

4x Thoughtseize
4x Smallpox
4x Hymn to Tourach (or Sinkhole)
2x Surgical Extraction
2x Toxic Deluge
1x Crucible of Worlds
1x Liliana, the Last Hope
2x Bitterblossom

4x Vault of Whispers
9x Swamp
3x Wasteland
3x Mishra's Factory
3x Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
2x Buried Ruin


This is just something to throw against a wall. Bitterblossom + Factory for win-conditions so far, which are slow but this is a prison deck in the purest form. Just an interesting idea to test out. I am assuming that companions, in some way or form, will be dealt with on Monday, so this doesn't take them into consideration.
