Remake of my modified Psychic Labyrinth deck which was originally meant to adjust the Psychic Labyrinth deck I had just bought at the time. (Don't mind the maybeboard, that's just to help keep track of cards I have in there right now).

Plan is, stall enemy with spells like Claustrophobia, Crippling Chill, Hands of Binding, etc until I can get a fleet of flying and/or unblockable creatures to win. Hidden Strings will help untap my lands to sustain enchant spam or annoy opponent. Plus, the general spam of ciphers will proc Staff of the Mind Magus for some insane health gain.

Swap Outs (sub out for upgrades):

Crippling Chill, Cloudfin Raptor, Suntail Hawk, Jelenn Sphinx, Twitch, Jace's Mindseeker

Potential Swap Ins:

Ponder, Judge's Familiar, Arrest, Prison Term, Recumbent Bliss, Wall of Denial, Sunblast Angel, Wall of Frost and flying for Wall of Denial, Neko-Te

Land:

Sejiri Refuge, Azorius Guildgate

Edit

Got to play a friend with the prototype version of this deck (the half finished version), and although it was just one game, it was very clear that it lacked a reliable win-con. I can tap creatures all I want, but that won't actually win me games. Granted Sunblast Angel still has not been added to the physical deck yet and it would have greatly helped clear his board and effectively destroyed his devotion (Gray Merchant of Asphodel shafted me really hard). The lesson of the day was that I need something to work with the lockdown to win. So now, I'm gonna try to see if I can do a lifegain win-con with Invisible Stalker and Celestial Mantle.
