I'm trying the Muddle the Mixture in the ICBM Oath and it works very well, you have a conunter or a tutor in your hand, I think it works beter than the tfk. Now I'm playing with three creatures (the angels and spirit of the night) and two Muddle the mixture, without tfk or impulse and the deck works better (it's more dificult to have a bad hand).

I'm playing now this deck (ben Carp) and it works very very well
Now I'm playing with three creatures (the two angels and spirit of the night) but I'm not able to say if it works better or not. Now I have more possibilities to draw a creature card but I have two more creatures to play. If you play with only two creatures and you draw one of them, you need to have a brainstorm/tok/fetch to play it, and usually you don't have time to do it.

You just don't ever want a creature in your hand. Playing 3 just increases the chances of drawing one.
It's true, but if you draw one you have two more creatures to play with them. With only two creatures, if you draw one (and it happens quite often) you only have one more in your deck.

and why not three creatures in the main deck? akroma, razia and spirit of the night
If you draw one of the three, you can play brainsorm and a fetch land to return the creature to the deck, but sometimes is hard to do it

Which one do you prefer?
Now I'm using Impulse, but I see many decks with tfk, oath has enough artifacts to play this card?
Do you think one SSS in the main deck is a good idea? (with akroma and razia in the main deck too)
In a second match, against which decks do you play the SSS?, and when you play them, do you change them for one of the angels?

Ramon, First of all donīt use Spanish expresions like the laught "jajajaja" because this is an English forum
Also, Running TimeWarp and Isocronīs scepter, I wonder how do you get serius results, what do you mean with serius?
This is Open Vintage, no casual forums, you arenīt playing CS, you are playing Scepter.deck with welders.... please, ask Brian Demars or someone else about CS and read the post, you will learn a lot of things of Control Slaver or why Isocron Scepter is unplayable
First of all, all I want to do in this forum is learn more about my favourite game 2nd I'm sorry about my english level, after my phd in england (in 2001) I haven't speak english 3rd "spanish expresions" isn't a beautiful expresion 4th I'm not living in the usa with competitions with more than 80 players (I think in my town we are only ten players with moxes and the black lotus), I play with friends and in competitions with 20-30 players. And I'm not here trying to be serious, I'm here for read opinions about my decks (or my ideas) (maybe for you think they are crap, but maybe someone can help me and give me good ideas) And thank you for your message, I wonīt use the "jajaja" expresion again in an english forum  Modified - Sorry NaNaKy3k I think I have been too susceptible, Smmenen's CS list. Thank you trick 219, I admire Stephen Menendian and their decks, but the only thing I want to know is what do you think about the three isochronn scepters in the main deck. Now I know the answer (crap) Thanks Double post merged & long quite removed. - Bram

I'm not a slaver expert, but Time Warp is just horrible.
jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaj ajaja thank you I'm going to start to play with two mindslavers and one jar Last week I played the deck with more instants (boomerang, fire/ice, remand, etc) and three Isochron Scepter, and I won lots of matches, but I'm not sure if the deck needs them, what do you think?

I'm now playing this deck with great results and I would like to know your opinion about these options: - Darksteel colossus or platinum angel (or both) - One or two Mindslavers The only card that I don't have from the main deck is the time walk, and I am using the time warp  (I can play it after a mana drain), do you thing I must use another card (please don't answer me "time walk"  )

its hard to say because obviously some cards in the main are way better in some matchups than others. cards that were most commonly taken out were stifles and the shadow of doubt. There was also mathups like stax though in which the duress some out. it obviously depends all on matchups. if you have any specific matchups in mind let me know
Thank you for your answer! It's what I want to know

and why not an arcane laboratory in the main deck?
Because it's a dead card before you flip Erayo. You don't need the hard lock in this deck. The soft lock between Erayo and Cutpurse should be perfectly sufficient. Also, it limits the usefulness of your own Confidant & Cutpurse duo, taking away the advantage of playing more than one spell that you have just because of your card drawing. Even as a singleton, it does more bad than good. What I really like about this deck is the super-heavy LD component. Stifle, Shadow AND Wasteland make any Fetchland a very risky proposition. On the other hand, with only seven real mana-producing lands, how is the Stax matchup? Any deck with 5 Strips has almost as many LD effects as this deck has lands. I'd imagine Stifle to take on a very protective role, right? Great answer! Thank you  Tomorrow I will start to play the deck here in Valencia (Spain), I hope it will be a big surprise for all my friends
