Ever tried the Isochron Scepter and Silence combo? Guaranteed to make your opponents not talk.

FAMOUSWATERMELON, I knew that Silence existed, I just wasn't sure if that was its name. I was also thinking about Isochron Scepter because it can combo with a few things. Thank you for the suggestions! I'm glad I know that Silence is the card name now, thank you

Grand Arbiter Augustin IV can be pretty good in this deck so your big guys get real cheap.

Venser, the Sojourner Works well with Lavinia of the Tenth and any other creature that detains when it comes into play.

Thank you for the suggestion Therandus! I was considering taking out Archon of the Triumvirate for some more room and to get rid of that 5 cmc, what do you think?

Personally I'm not a fan of that card, mana cost is a bit too high for a 4/5 flyer, and there are better detain effects in the game.

Therandus, yeah, that's what I was thinking too. Thank you for the help!

Oh if you wanted even more control over your opponent, there are cards like Grand Abolisher that don't let them cast spells on your turn, or Curse of Exhaustion which limit their spells to 1 per turn. Really shuts down some rush decks if you get it early enough.

Thanks again Therandus! I am most likely going to add one or both of your suggestions once I go through and edit the deck once more.

Maybe add some Negates, Disdainful Strokes, Ojutai's Commands, and Dissolves? I do like it though, just not a lot of counters for control. +1

Oh my, I feel embarrassed. * Goes and sits in a corner. * I seriously thought that I had Negate in here. * Face palm. *

Thank you so much for the suggestions! I'll be updating the deck after throwing suggestions in people's faces, so it may take some time before I get to add them in. Thanks again!
