1  Eternal Formats / Creative / Re: [Free Article] So Many Insane Plays -- The Parfait Ambush! on: November 17, 2010, 03:23:42 am
Hello this is our decklist which we made in 2006-08 it is own mind property of Brothers of Fire from Czech Republic

Engine:
4x Scroll Rack
4x Land Tax
3x Zuran Orb

Protection:
3x Aura of Silence
1x Seal of Cleansing
4x Orim's Chant
2x Blood Moon

Anti-Creatures:
4x Sword to Plowshares
2x Humility
1x Moat
1x Balance

Tutors:
1x Enlightened Tutor
1x Vampiric Tutor
1x Demonic Tutor
3x Tithe

Kill:
4x Goblin Charbelcher

Art.Sources:
1x Mana Vault
1x Mana Crypt
1x Sol Ring
2x Chrome mox  /Mox Pearl and/or Ruby
2x Mox Diamond
1x Lotus Petal    /Black Lotus

11x Plains (prefer pieces from Tempest set)
1x Mountain (Mirrage)
1x Swamp (euroland)
1x Scrabland
1x Plateau

SB is influenced by local field or type of tournament:

3x Engineered Plague / on  my field exist many of merfolks or goblins (mono raced) or vs Oath
1x Aura of Silence
2x Abolish / Seal of Cleansing
1x Rack and Ruin
3x Tormod's Crypt
3x Argivian Find
1x Yawgmoth's Will
1x Relic of Progenitus

This deck is drafted on Budget style to get a prices. I played him before many years alot, because Parfait was suitable for creature field and old times are old times. But in my opinion this build or any similar have chance to disrupt modern field.

Auras, seal, permanents, swords - again Mud style
Masive artifact destroyment again all Tezz, controls etc.
Humility rape all kind of Fish or Gush Dryads - or u get enough time
Ichorid, i hope i have enough cards in SB - humility is too good
Combos - i dont know mby Orim or Auras

But i had and have fun with this deck. If you have an idea how to pimp my deck, please let me know.

While I think that this particular build of Landstill is going to have trouble resolving Disk, I don't think resolving Disk is an unrealistic expectation for Landstill in general.
Even against MUD or Stax? Making land drops under spheres is obviously a big plus, but by turn five or six when you can cast Disk, I'd expect MUD's fast clock to get you, or for that Stax would have had plenty of time to establish a solid lock.

So my experiences talk:

Mana Drain+Disc = end
Land+ crypt, 2nd turn after 5/3 disc (or lightning) and mud man is stacked
It is about force opponent to make mistakes when disc is on the battlefield
The game again mud is all about: how fast you get disc on table, than keep situation to get more control cards and/or lands and than punish him by disc, than cast standstill to get maximal control over the game. I never tested landstill with null rod, i could imagine that again all mana sources and time vaults decks (oath, tezz, jace, tendrills) and etc. is really great.
But again mud is not so good in my opinion,  even if some mud, stax builds consist some of them mby again triskelion , metalworker, equips......

Agains all others blue deck i had advantage with the number of control cards over the game. Fow, ManaDrain, Echoing truth, Chain of vapor, REB, and draw engine which isnt only about ancestral recall.

The build which i posted is quiet old - i am thinking about add more vintage pieces like Sol Ring, Mana Crypt, Tinker, Colossus, Voltaic Key, Time Vault, Artifact Transmute.
On the other hand still can be powered with Null Rod in the way of stack opponents - Null rod+Wastelands+Strip Mine+Crucible+Stiffle - question is , is it enough?
Question how great is null rod again other decks on the field......Fish? sux, Ichorid sux.........??

Hello from Czech Republic, i love standstill too, is pretty strong deck and i was in many TOP4 with it. I play it for 3 years and i will go on i rape many fishes, oaths, dredgers, staxes, tezzerets and some probs i ve with well-played tendrills

There is my decklist:
Lands
    1  Library of Alexandria (i would like to cut it out - this card is awesome shit, mby with standstills you have chance to get 7 cards back + is collorless)
    4  Wasteland
    1  Strip Mine
    4  Mishra's Factory
    4  Volcanic Island
    2  Faerie Conclave
    3  Island
    3  Flooded Strand
    2  Polluted Delta

// Spells
    2  Chain of Vapor
    1  Mox Sapphire
    1  Mox Ruby
    1  Black Lotus
    1  Impulse
    2  Lightning Bolt
    1  Brainstorm
    1  Ponder
    4  Force of Will
    2  Echoing Truth
    3  Stifle
    2  Crucible of Worlds
    3  Fire/Ice
    1  Ancestral Recall
    3  Nevinyrral's Disk
    4  Standstill
    4  Mana Drain

// Sideboard
SB: 3  Rack and Ruin
SB: 2  Spell Snare
SB: 2  Pyroblast
SB: 1  Red Elemental Blast
SB: 2  Relic of Progenitus
SB: 2  Engineered Explosives
SB: 3  Tormod's Crypt

i am really thinking about add tinker+colossus+key+vault+crypt+sol ring+tezz for next competition
Coz it could produce really fast kill with tinker+colossus and is resistable again disc

Disc = nightmare for all MUD, staxes etc.
