This deck is my first mono-blue deck that I have ever built. This deck is focused around being the standard of what blue is supposed to be: all of the constant "no"s. This deck also is supposed to mill your opponents to death. The one problem that I have encountered is when you play against multiple opponents and they each have blue in their deck, especially Esper Oloro and Graveyard recursion decks (Sultai.....ekk).

The problem I initially found with this deck was I didn't have any way of getting my sorceries and instants back so I decided to put Tamiyo, the Moon Sage in to try and get them back. To protect my instants and sorceries even more, I have added Sphinx of the Final Word to really mess with my opponents.

After my first test of the deck, I found the perfect card to slow the crap out of any player..... Fatespinner . The fact that each of your opponents lose one of the steps during their turns is freaking fantastic. This deck makes me want to cry because I'm a dominate mono-green or mono-red player but it makes me happy because I finally understand blue.

To make this deck even more of a douchebag move, I added Time Warp, Temporal Mastery , and Time Warp. Now...I know Lighthouse Chronologist sounds like it would fit in perfectly, but the problem with him is that he takes a bit to get him to the extra turns, and it turns you into an even bigger target than before because you don't want your opponents to know that you will be taking all of these extra turns.

In the future after Shadows Over Innistrad has been released, I will probably alter this deck again because of the new Jace's ultimate.
