Hokori, Dust Drinker if you're willing to go with redundancy on Winter Orb

Mana Web can be good, sometimes people can bypass it by just tapping out to play what they want in M1.

Tsabo's Web cab shut down cards like Maze of Ith or Man Lands as well.

I play Brago similarily (http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/brago-bringer-of-sadness/), if you wanted to give any revisions or check for any cards that may fit for Arbiter (he's in my 99). I have not updated or tested it since i built Jeleva, but i have acquired cards like Mana Drain and Timetwister. Also, if you do look, note that Venser PW and Mindseeker would be those cuts.

On that note, +1 from me. I would totally run this deck.

This is a powerful example of hard control in EDH. Thanks for sharing it with me.

Friend of mine ran a deck similar to this, plus 1 for nostalgia. On another note, you seem to have a good mind for locks and keeping an opponent suppressed, care to look at Please Hold (Oloro Stax) and see if anything needs improving that may have been missed heretofore? The deck refuses to link due to another deck with same name, but it's on my page. Much appreciated.

you need all six CoP's aka Circles of Protection (Red, White, Blue, Black, Green, Artifact). so if by some off chance the opponent can sneak past your defenses you have a way off shutting them up.

No, I don't.

are Mulldrifter and Solemn Simulacrum really pulling their weight?also cmc3 counterspells that cannot profit from your commanders discount seem weak - atleast Absorb

i like Arcane Denial as a hard counter.

you could punish creatureramp and lots of creature combos with Cursed Totem or Linvala, Keeper of Silence.

Angel of Jubilation and Suppression Field punish fetchlands as well as other stuff like alot of infinite combos or necropotence.

then there are Torpor Orb or Hushwing Gryff which wouldnt hinder you with mullldrifter and jens gone. these hinder alot of value etb as well as some combos like kikijiki and further can protect your board against any kind of Aura Shards or Reclamation Sage.

your not going for MLD but play cruciblestrip lock as well as sun titan and wordqueller - i want to suggest Dust Bowl and Drownyard Temple.

Ward of Bones is a super sweet card in this deck, stopping your opponents from casting and getting ahead of you when you are mana screwed is an effect that is criminally underrated.

No, no, and more no to Ward of Bones. If I have six lands in play there is a significant chance I'm already winning with this deck. That's just an overpriced Kismet or Frozen AEther or Blind Obedience--none of which I'm running. Hard pass.

Stasis+Chronatog+Frozen AEther?

First game with the deck1. Polluted Delta, sac for Hallowed Fountain untapped, play Sol Ring, play Azorius Signet
2. Play Grand Arbiter, play Azorius Chancery3. Play Fabricate; Sphere of Resistance, play Enlightened Tutor; Winter Orb, play Sphere of ResistanceEveryone quit

10/10 would play again

Have you thought about running the card Forcefield?

I LOVE this deck, do you have any updates for the new set? some decent u/w cards in there.

Teferi, Hero of Dominaria is the only thing I have seen thus far that might have a place in this deck, and I'm tentatively very excited about it. It looks incredibly powerful, its initial +1 really synergizes with the Winter Orb type effects, and this deck can draw quite a few cards--hence making the ultimate ability potentially back breaking if you can pull it off. It also effectively costs 1 mana if you cast it with the Arbiter in play. That having been said, I've been conscientiously boycotting new sets since 2016 due to the pervasive and abysmal design, print, and card stock quality issues that Wizards has had recently. (And I'm aware that I've missed out on things like Dovin Baan, Irrigated Farmland, Port Town, etc.) Oath of the Gatewatch was the last set I purchased new cards from in earnest, and that was really more for draft purposes. If some of the issues resolve I will be purchasing a good amount of Dominaria because it looks like an incredibly cool set with a lot of neat cards, but we will just have to wait and see.

Have you tested out Back to Basics? It could be really effective lock piece. A possible anti-creature card that you could use is Portcullis.

I arguably run as many or less basic lands than the typical EDH deck--basically because this is a very color-intensive two-color deck. So, given that there are generally three other opponents sitting at the table, a lot of times the "symmetrical" effect of Back to Basics is going to hurt me more than (at least one of) my opponents. Portcullis is interesting, but seeing as it costs four, doesn't eliminate creatures already on the battlefield, and is basically a giant Oblivion Ring in that if destroyed (and there's plenty of artifact destruction floating around your typical EDH table) everything comes back, I fail to see how it is any better than simply running a sixth "wrath" effect such as Day of Judgment or Rout.

Cards that I have previously considered that do similar things to the two cards that you have proposed and that have been mentioned here before I believe are Pendrell Mists, Mana Web, and Static Orb. If I ever were to take this deck further in the "Stax" direction that would probably be where I'd start.

+1 for Username

Azorius Chancery is bad, I get that you can untap it with Teferi but that being its only positive compare to the negaitve that it has makes it not worth playing.

Also, Void Shatter is better than Spell Crumple. The only time it's worse is the case where you need to pitch it to FoW. Other that that it does much more work.
