The plan:

• Play a cat.
• Play a stax thing.
• Repeat step 2 as necessary. Other cards optional.

Unlike other decks that only deny some resources (such as Winter Orb in a deck full of mana rocks), this deck aims to deny as many avenues of play as possible, because we don't need anything else to win once there's a cat. (We WILL however play one particular cat if the opportunity arises ...)

This is version 2.0, which has only been goldfished, but looks promising. If you'd like to test it in some real games, please feel free to do so and let me know what you think.

Some tips:

• default stax/hate to search is Aven Mindcensor.
• default direction of attacks is whoever has the least favorable blocks (don't be afraid to use a removal spell to accomplish this).
• Cavern of Souls names whatever is most appropriate to your hand.
