Thanks for the reply Saucemaster, once I started testing it I came to the same conclusion, in fact, my LoA hasn't been useful since I got it, it could just be my metagame though. One card I included that I haven't seen discussed, (maybe I just missed it), was crop rotation. Since it is all about the orchards or waste, crop rotation seems like it'd be a great include.

Here's the decklist Standstill x4 Ophidian x4 Tradewind Rider x3 Cloud of Faeries x4 Spiketail Hatchling x4
Mana Drain x4 Force of Will x4 Mana Leak x4 Back to Basics x2 Ancestral Recall x1 Time Walk x1
SoLoMoxen x7 Fetchland x5 Island x7 LoA x1 Wasteland x4 Strip Mine x1
Sideboard: Back to basics x2 BEB x4
up for discussion
Choices I wanted to build fish but I wanted to be able to utilize back to basics and standstill, and possibly chalice thus this is what came out. Tradewind Rider: This was the main reason I wanted to make the deck, I've always been a Tradewind fan but I realized if I wanted to make the deck halfway competitive, thus I needed the mana accel of the moxen and drains. I thought it would work wonders with standstill too. Spiketail Hatchling: Pretty solid first turn with a mox, land also works with tradewind Cloud of Faeries: Free creature, synergistic with tradewind Ophidian (vs. Curiosity): Ophidian is a creature, making him tappable (sp?) and doing almost the same thing as curiosity. Standstill: Like I said, this is a fish hybrid, beside the spikes and clouds, if you have an active tradewind down it might as well read draw 3 cards. Mana Leak: Solid counter with the solomoxen
I think most other cards in here are self explanatory
Cards I'd like to think of adding Powder keg (the deck doesn't have alot to deal with welder besides the T-wind or force) chalice of the void- so strong but I just couldn't find things I wanted to drop for it Stasis! - the old prison player in me has always loved this card, wouldn't be terrible with a tradewind down. I'm also a little sketchy on the manabase, the lack of impulse could make UU hard to come up with Any comments would be appreciated
