Mono-Blue "Group Hug". This deck functions as a control deck without Braids, and has some options for making sure your Braids trigger is the most Powerful.

Some Combos this deck boasts:

Ye Olde: Dramatic Reversal + Isochron Scepter . Tried and true infinite combo with minimal input. Wins with this involve Arcanis the Omnipotent , Sensei's Divining Top or Tidespout Tyrant .

Jace's Archivist + Library of Leng . Windfall forever, and never deck yourself? Yes please.

Consecrated Sphinx + Jace's Archivist Windfall for 7, draw 49? Yup.

Consecrated Sphinx + Howling Mine . Four cards per opponent per turn. Seems fair.

Blightsteel Colossus + Sakashima's Student , hey, you thought that was Braids I was swinging with? Nope, 11 infect to your face.

As Foretold + Leyline of Anticipation Get 1 free spell every turn.

Arcanis the Omnipotent + Minamo, School at Water's Edge Draw 6 cards per turn.

And with all this Mana you save, why not dump it onto Lighthouse Chronologist + Stunt Double + Clone + Phyrexian Metamorph + ... you get the Idea; Take all the turns, Profit.
