Counterbalance

[Zelow]

Hey guys kinda new here and dont know if this topic has allready been brought up or not but ill try anyways lol. I was wondering what your guys opinion would be on the best deck for counterbalance to fit in I really seem to like the card a whole lot. Right now I have a counterbalance deck with bomberman barrings lol as hitman would put it. if you guys have any deck ideas or lists that would be awsome. Oh and one more thing to mention lol I have been out of magic since ravnica so newer cards I dont know so well if I could get help there it would be amazing. Also lol I will post my actual deck list i have the next time I post, I just didnt have it on me at the moment.

Thanks, Keith

It seems that counterbalance would have the most success in Tog.  I want to experiment with counterbalance in u/r fish, as it could be interesting especially in this meta..  I have also been out of magic for a couple years, and in my build back then I didn't run brainstorms, but to maximize the effectiveness of counterbalance, top and brainstorms are necessary.

yes i agree top and brainstorm are a must for counterbalance to be even thinkable but what kind of deck build would you use for a u/r fish?

right now im working on a mono U aether vial build, running voidmages, spiketails, Bouncers, Martyr of frost (from timespiral),ninjas, COtV, and of course wastelands and manlands.  I havent decided on the exact numbers for the creatures, counterbalances and such.  I havent got it into the testing stages yet, and i have tourny to prepare for on the 30th.  I doubt I will be running this build, but i might if i can get some testing in.
