    "Polymorph->Progenitus", UWB-LS shell.

    So I'm aware this is a "danger of cool things issue" but screw it, I'll win a tourney with it and "muahaha" at all those "dangers of cool things" out there!

    Here we go:

    Shell:
    4 Standstill
    4 Brainstorm
    4 Swords to Plowshares
    2 Path to Exile
    4 Force of Willl
    3 Spell Snare
    4 Vindicate
    2 Engineered Explosives
    1 Sensei's Divining Top
    1 Jace
    (29)
    Tech:
    3 Bitterblossom
    2 Elspeth, Knight's Errant
    2 Polymorph (alongside 7 manlands)
    1 Progenitus
    (+8=37)

    Land:
    4 Flooded Strand
    2 Polluted Delta
    4 Tundra
    2 Underground Sea
    1 Scrubland
    1 Plains
    1 Island
    1 Swamp
    4 Mishra's Factory
    3 Mutavault
    (23)

    SB:
    3 Tidehollow Sculler
    3 Meddling Mage
    3 Kitchen Finks
    3 Relic of Progenitus
    3 Engineered Plague

    So I basically cut 1 EE, 1 Jace, 2 Diabolic Edict and 2 Counterspell from my current Speedstill version and added 2 Polymorph, 1 Progenitus and 3 Bitterblossom.
    Now the question to be tackled is, whether this change improves the deck more than it weakens it...
    The change makes the deck somewhat less susceptible to CB, Bitterblossom and 3 additional manlands strengthens the control mirror, I think.
    And then there's the surprise effect obviously.
    The downside is a little less consistency due to dead draws once in a while.
    I don't think I'll increase the amount of Polymorphs due to that.

    I'm in a rush now. I'll add more thoughts later.
    Crits are appreciated
    Peace!
