Fucking. Burglar. Rat.

Hells yeah. I have been looking for a niche for him in edh. Clearly, I have found it.

Do you think that Curator's Ward could have a place in your deck? It has the double benefit of providing hexproof to a permanent you may want to protect, while also giving you a draw 2 trigger.

Massacar it just might be worth trying. Luckily I have one lying around. Thanks!

This is out of my vocabulary, but I could see it being really interesting to play. I like how it slows the game and brings in so much more "space and time" to the thought process. You have wishclaw in here, so you must have ways to abuse Avarice Totem as well?

Any reason you're not running Smothering Tithe?

Why do you run Teferi, Time Raveler? It means that only you have the option to interact with your opponents, and you are only running three counterspells. Also, why only run three counterspells? Why Counterspell over Mana Drain? Competitive decks, even stax-focused ones, generally should run more than three. Negate, Spell Pierce, Flusterstorm, Fierce Guardianship, Delay, and Force of Negation are all common good ones. Why are you running Windfall but not/instead of Timetwister? I don't see your deck caring about its graveyard. Since you have a subtheme of wheels, why not run Smothering Tithe and Alms Collector? Or Whispering Madness for extra density? Furthermore, you deck needs a real, tangible, hard win condition. Simply locking your opponents is not enough to win at a competitive table. Why not include Demonic Consultation and/or Tainted Pact and Thassa's Oracle and/or Jace, Wielder of Mysteries? Solid wincon that doesn't require long games to win, but works just fine in them.

goldlion Wishclaw Talisman is probably in there because of its interaction with Aminatou. -1 Aminatou targeting Talisman, activate Talisman in response, then Aminatou's flicker resolves. Unlimited tutors that cost {1} apiece. Avarice Totem is bad.

Cornelius_1216 thank you very much for the feedback. I’m actually veering away from fast, cEDH combos this time around and the lack of a real win-con is by design. I’m sorry if the deck still has the “competitive” tag. It really isn’t. My meta has powered down a lot and i’m following suit. I’m just trying to build a stax deck that wins via submission and modesty aside, it has performed better than expected.

I do plan on adding Smothering Tithe at some point. I just haven’t found the slot for it. Whispering Madness was just taken out but I will give it another try. As for Teferi, it’s there mainly to lock opponents out (with Narset+Puzzle Box).

Do you see anything in the list that sticks out -easy cuts, odd includions? Please let me know.

Oh and as for Timetwiser, I have this deck on paper and I really can’t afford the card. Same reason why Tundra is not on the list. Only got 1 kidney to sell to fund the hobby lol

Megalomania powering down your meta and deck, and forgetting to remove the competitive tag, explains everything I was wondering about lol. I figured you probably couldn't afford the twister (same), but most people are fine with proxies in competitive, so I didn't understand. Thanks for answering my question and now that I have casual in mind, cool deck!

You are a monster making this deck lol tbh it's hard to give a opinion on what to cut for those new cards sadly I couldn't be of any assistance :(

Is it cruel to recommend Mana Web >:D

Exploring Aminatou myself, this play is decisively annoying and brutal :) I don't think I want to go this far, but yes, I can feel it.

Considered a Vedalken Mastermind to pair up with Stasis ?

VayraTheGatherer, this was meant to be a funny, stax-ish build but my playgroup, which is made of mostly stax decks, power creeped so I had to adjust.

I don’t think we need the Mastermind in this list since we already have Smothering Tight to keep paying for Stasis. I could use some ideas on how to fit Stasis into the deck tho. See anything I can cut for it?

The candidates I would look at would be Aura of Silence and Blind Obedience , perhaps swapped for Act of Authority which is a beautiful ETB for Aminatou EVEN if you use it twice. Less tax, more exile, minus one card. The other one might be Oath of Liliana unless you find those tokens very useful. But that would be pretty harmless for getting a much stronger effect in, I think.

A perhaps other and more effective replacement for Oath of Liliana by the way: Tainted AEther ;)

Deck looks great!

Two recoomendations: 1. Tezzeret the Seeker. OG tezz can do many things, stax tutor on demand or a quick plus one into an ultimate to turn your artifacts into 5/5's for lethal swing.

1. If you can get yourself a German black bordered winter orb (4th edition or revised) they translate the name as FrostBringer and it is amazing.

That's it, if you're going to gencon this year hit me up and we can jam some games!
