I decided to stay away from the 4th color altogether for reasons pertaining to the manabase. I think Boom // Bust is what Wasteland should be in this deck. It comes down as a devastating surprise and will answer any problematic land. I think we need to accept that we need to devote considerable SB space to storm combo, and that Show n Tell decks will be nightmares. As for any fair/control/aggro based decks out there, I believe our odds are very favorable. Here is the latest RUG version I have played:


Creatures (20)
2 Grim Lavamancer
4 Noble Hierarch
4 Tarmogoyf
4 Shardless Agent
3 Vendilion Clique
3 Bloodbraid Elf

Spells (20)
4 Lightning Bolt
4 Brainstorm
4 Force of Will
4 Ancestral Vision
2 Boom // Bust
2 Jace, the Mind Sculptor

Lands (20)
4 Misty Rainforest
4 Scalding Tarn
2 Wooded Foothills
3 Tropical Island
3 Volcanic Island
1 Taiga
1 Island
1 Forest
1 Mountain

Sideboard (15)
3 Mindbreak Trap
3 Red Elemental Blast
2 Scavenging Ooze
2 Krosan Grip
2 Umezawa's Jitte
2 Tormod's Crypt
1 Pithing Needle


I think there is no reason not to play 4 FoW main with 7 Cascade dorks and 4 Ancestral Vision, free counterspells are a great way to use card advantage.
