ok, kenz i know your probably thinking "time stop....?!!!" WTF?!
trust me, it's awesomely insane it's even better than a counter, and if i have Pristine out then that's an extra 4 I can chip in.

Not bad. I like it. Only change I'd do is take out the pacifisms for the cage of hands (tho a 2:2 ratio is probably best). Reason is so you can reuse removal, which is pretty vital in control decks.

ehh yeah, i've thought about running cage of hands over arrest not pacifism, mainly because pacifism is only 2 to cast.

[Kenny_C.002]

True. Probably best to run 3 pacifism and 3 arrest with 2 cages. I think arrest would still be useful from stuff like arc slogger that have ridiculous abilities that you just want to lock out.

nah, i've thought about it but.....
cages i took out and the pacifisms i put it in the sideboard and in place of the 4 pacifism i put in ghostly prison.

[Kenny_C.002]

That works too. lol

I guess whatever works for you eh, since it's different for different players.

updated "Angel In The Ocean"

[Kenny_C.002]

The only thing is that Time Stop requires you to play a LOT of lands to be played effectively AND can't help you in the early game. Overall, it might work, but I'd personally leave it to casual.

*looks at edit 3*

Isn't that a little...too high on the mana curve? O_O

what, 24 lands?

[Kenny_C.002]

No no. I meant the decks' a little top heavy. I mean, Angel + dragons + Meloku + Bribery. That's very top heavy IMO. You might want to consider dropping the tide star...

well, that's the thing.
As long as I have at least one of the kill conditions, I win because I'll always have another one in my hand if you happen to get rid of it.

[~`':Beeeeeeeeeeeeebop:'`~]

but wat if u die before you can play it or you dont draw enough lands and cant do anything coz all your spells in your hand cost like 5 or more?

nope, that won't happen.
on an average ratio of my hand there's a 24/60 chance that i'll have at least 1 land. there's a 12/60 chance that i'll draw at least 1 counter. Sure, my deck has very expensive creatures and spells but that's why I have Pulse for stall, thirst for draw accel, sensei for top-decking, and pentad for mana accel. So in case you were wondering if I can't play anything, then that's still fine, because I would always top-deck something.

[Kenny_C.002]

No that's what I mean. There may be TOO MANY kill conditions in the deck right now. I seriously think that you should drop the tide star...

I already have like yosei, meloku and etc. so what's 1 card going to do?

[Kenny_C.002]

"I already have like yosei, meloku and etc. so what's 1 card going to do?"

That's what I mean. the Tide Star isn't needed in the deck since you've gotten all those other guys as your kill condition.

well, it's more like what does it do?
pros:
when killed i jack one of your creature.
con:
can't use the wrath combo unlike yosei

but even still... You'll be pressured by the 5 damage, and whether to block or not... it's even more pressure

[Kenny_C.002]

Okay. Then I must now persuade you that you should take out the tide star nonetheless if you're going that route. The extra yosei would kick more butt than tide star. lol

[SADM]

I really like this deck, If I was still playing magic I would try it. Definatly go with Yosei.
