Darksteel Reactor might also be your thing if that's what you're going for.

Isochron Scepter might also help for your fogging.

Here's a list of cards you should consider:

For fog effects: Angelsong , Blunt the Assault , Constant Mists , Dawn Charm , card:Druid's Deliverance, Energy Arc , Kami of False Hope , Kor Haven , Lull , Maze of Ith , card:Moment's Peace, Respite , Spore Cloud , Spore Flower , Spore Frog , Tangle Terrifying Presence , Frost Breath

Everything else: Tamiyo, the Moon Sage , Ghostly Prison , Sphere of Safety , Bant Charm , Seedborn Muse , Sterling Grove , Dovescape , Privileged Position , Wrath of God , Day of Judgment , card:Kirtar's Wrath, Collective Restraint , Meishin, the Mind Cage , War Tax

Hope this helps!

Also, you're going to need a LOT of counterspells to save yourself from any non-aggro threats.

Thanks! you gave alot of awesome suggestions, but now i have to cut some to make room for counter spells lol

So from what I talked about here, this is what I don't think will work as well.

Meishin, the Mind Cage wont work unless you've got the cards in hand to make it efficient.

War Tax doesn't seem to really get there to be honest.


Other things you should add as win conditions:

Palinchron infinite mana for that Helix Pinnacle win.... Or any win, come on infinite mana man. So Palinchron + Mana Reflection (Or any Mana doubler) or Palinchron + Deadeye Navigator .

Another cool thing was Haze Frog + Deadeye Navigator .

That being said, you'll need card draw to feed your fog engine so I'll suggest:

Rhystic Study , Mystic Remora , Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur , Mulldrifter

Rites of Flourishing can be used well in turbofog, card:Blue Sun's Zenith might work well with your deck also

You could ramp into a giant Fireball lol

The fireball idea made me laugh lol. I know that i cant run this deck using only plains, i just through them in there for the card count. i like to figure out all of the other cards then adjust the mana accordingly

@sz i like both of those sugestions. i really need help thinning this deck down though, and adding counter spells / mana rocks

i'd suggest some tutors, Worldly Tutor to pull out the card:Azor's Elocutors and perhaps Congregation at Dawn

get rid of the Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth , you can't even use the black mana.

you've got Dissipate in there twice.

Counterspell , Spelljack , Redirect , Silence are some of nice counters/tricks

i'd also recomend focusing on the electors as a win condition as they only need 5 counters to win. try Swiftfoot Boots , Darksteel Plate , Asceticism to help protect it and Contagion Engine /Contagion Clasp /Thrummingbird to make it win faster (they also work for the Darksteel Reactor and the Helix Pinnacle )

only if they're playing black

it combos anyway. when something becomes a swamp it gains the ability to tap for black. by playing Mana Web in addition to Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth , they tap out their mana by tapping a single land.

in edh a permanent can only tap for a colour that's part of your general's colour identity otherwise it produces colourless mana... unless mana web would force all his lands to TRY (and potentially fail) to produce black and instead give him a whole bunch of useless mana
