Hardcore "draw, go" control deck, no action, only reaction. The philosophy of the deck is "if they never resolve a spell, you'll never lose." Having 44 counterspells, It is rare to not have a counter for every occasion.

Turn Order:

turn 1.) land, pass.

turn 2.) land, baral, pass.

turn 3-50.) land, counter every spell they cast.

win conditions are;

• beating face with baral,
• Runechanters pike on baral to make baral a 30 power first striker,
• let chronozoa live for about 12 turns to get an exponential army,
• token beatdown with lullmage/talrand,
• desertion to steal their win con,
• or, them scooping to cyclonic rift

Suggestions would be greatly appreciated, Please upvote so we can get this monstrosity to the top
