..is a good defence.

Thought of this after seeing Colossus of Akros previewed the other day. The idea of the deck is to defend and ramp until you can cast either Colossus of Akros or Guardian of the Ages as your win condition. Worldspine Wurm another option if games go very long.

The alternate win condition is milling out your opponent using Doorkeeper or Jace, Memory Adept.

I'm still learning how to play standard and i've never played blue counter magic. I thought this would be a fun crossover deck thats cheep to build. Any advice welcome, partially as I have no idea how I'm meant to beat other control decks.
