Someone from one of my FNM meta's mentioned that Curse of Exhaustion combo'd with Possibility Storm and I thought of building my pillow forts.

Makes sense, but may i ask, and maybe i'm not seeing it the deck right, where is the win condition?

Nephalia Drownyard and Assemble the Legion work as the woncons

Crypt Incursion looks fantastic! Bye bye reanimator?
This seems like the perfect deck for Azor's Elocutors .

Unfortunately the deck is too busy setting up to play 5 cmc wincons that don't also go with an enchantment theme, if the opponent gets locked out then drownyard or assemble get them. In fact after the deck's first pair of FNM's I've discovered the deck would probably benefit with having something to survive the early game, an aggro deck curving out destroys the deck too easily and it'd be especially great if the spell was green at the 1-2 cmc...

I definitely want to read how it goes if you use it at a tournament! Seems like a blast

Well, bhrusson0 one FNM I locked down a casual player's Maze's End deck, then I fought hard against Jund (named the wrong card on Nevermore ...) and lost, then I beat a Bant aggro deck first with soldiers, then with milling just as time was called.
The 2nd FNM I had a good match against a B/W midrange deck (looked like the B/W zombies decks that existed before scars rotated), in game 2 I barely won at 1 life by finally topdecking a black source (Mana Bloom ) and milling him out. Then the rest of the night I discovered that the deck needed a fog effect to fight the little red or white creatures that beat my face in...

Unfortunately the deck is pretty boring to describe the games, it was usually I ramp'd, played some expensive enchantments, then have fun seeing what I'd randomly get with Possibility Storm . The most fun part about that deck though, bhrusson0 was explaining how Possibility Storm worked to my opponents, I have found that it's best to leave that enchantment in the middle of the table.

Hahah I bet! I know I've had to read it like 6 times just to double check all the things it says.

It's also a nightmare to use on the playtester here, sticking 30 odd cards into the bottom of the library takes too long.

I understand you are trying to avoid using non-enchantments, but have you tried Riot Control ? Prevents damage dealt to YOU, and you gain life equal to the number of creatures your opponents control. I know it's more expensive than Fog , but I feel like that life-gain might be worth it against RDW and Boros aggro decks. Just wondering if you've given it a shot.
Also, +1 for making an obnoxious Turbofog deck in standard! I'm working on one for modern ATM.

One of the fog's in the actual deck was actually Riot Control (I was too lazy to find the 3rd Fog ) and it was unfortunately too expensive to have been of use as I was usually forced to choose between advancing my board towards the Sphere of Safety lock or playing the fog effect.
It does seem like at least 5 people tonight would agree that the deck is annoying, two of them wouldn't believe that Possibility Storm and Curse of Exhaustion combo the way they do.

Add tibalt + nico bolas
Play possibility storm, then cast tibalt.. cycle deck until your only other planeswalker is revealed. Its nico bolas. gg
May 24, 2013 12:54 a.m.
Unfortunately b00xx the deck doesn't really care how it wants to win (though landing a bolas would be fun) but it only needs to survive long enough to lock the game down, then it'll either overwhelm with assemble or mill them out with drownyard. Also there'd be those awkward moments where you end up drawing both planeswalkers before you land the storm.

Hey, I've been considering something for you to maybe try? synergy between assemble the legion and descent into madness? Black would give you underworld connections too! Maybe add farseeks to fix mana and go five color? I think it'd work!
May 27, 2013 9:27 a.m.
I once had Farseek in the deck, but I found I didn't need 16 mana fixers but more spells to keep early aggression from killing me before I can setup. The other two enchantments might be good for a format with no aggro, but right now adding them would be making a slow deck slower.
