    The Blender

    I've had this strange idea for quite a few days now and I spent very much time testing it. This deck is some kind of big toolbox featuring a bunch of combos to win the game (and it also got a very simple fallback plan, don't worry!).
    I am fully aware of how inconsistent toolbox decks as a whole are, but I seriously think that this deck got some potential. It uses a huge amount of Cantrips to dig for it's pieces and has a good protection suite in the form of CounterTop and Force of Will + Daze.
    Interested?

    Here's the list:

    4 Tarmogoyf
    3 Trinket Mage
    2 Painter's Servant
    1 Vendilion Clique
    1 Genesis
    1 Kira, Great Glass-Spinner
    1 Squee, Goblin Nabob
    1 Sower of Temptation
    1 Llawan, Cephalid Empress

    4 Survival of the Fittest

    4 Brainstorm
    3 Ponder

    4 Force of Will
    3 Daze

    3 Counterbalance

    1 Sensei's Divining Top
    1 Basilisk Collar
    1 Sigil of Distinction
    1 Engineered Explosives
    1 Grindstone

    4 Misty Rainforest
    4 Tropical Island
    6 Island
    5 Forest

    A little explanation of the overall gameplan of the deck:
    Earlygame, you behave like a regular UGThreshCBTop.dec and dig for stuff, shuffle your library and watch out what your opponent plays.
    Play a SotF, then look for which route you should go. Fetch a Squee, then start doing your stuff, either tutor up multiple Goyfs and smash your opponents head in with them, tutor a Sower to take control of their Goyf, get trinket Mage and fetch 1 of the utility trinkets, or simply go for Painter + Trinket Mage + Grindstone, or Painter + Llawan.
    If you need some evasive beats to end the game, why not tutor Vendilion and then go for Trinket Mage -> Sigil?
    Lategame, you have inevitability thanks to Genesis, which can recur anything from the simple Goyf to your Painter + Llawan lock.


    The deck seems to have problems with fast Aggro but other than that, it has been pretty easy to dig up a win and then end the game with it.
