[Deck]Stutter Still[Improving fish&landstill archetype]Post Fallout

[garathiel]

Hi there , in the last 2 months i was playing a particular decklist that i made ... after I saw a nice card like - spellstutter sprite -

-
- card advantage
- beater

What a nice card!!!
I take a landstill list and i tried to broke her limits.
Duress was a great problem for landstill , and spellstutter could give us more chance to make  2 active counters(or more) in a turn.

Duress - Black Lotus - Ancestral - Reb - Brainstorm - Fastbond - Negation Pact ... ecc ...with some help like cloud of faeries & mutavault we could counter something of casting cost 2 , in late game we could counter cc3 too like yaghmoth & thinker.

After that i tried some changes and made a powered version that made 2 final in a few weeks ... ( 2time walks split in final = 1time walk wins)

And here it is...the powered version that i'm using now.

bitterblossom is absolutely necessary!

[garathiel]

Bitterblossom give another structure to the deck , we would play more moxes ... and with more moxes we could play also tarmogoyfs ... and so ... trinket mage , or tinker ... and why not Pyraxian dreadnauth

I would remain in a UR deck , trying to upgrade the original UR landstill that we sometimes play.

Thanks!

--------------------------------------------

Fashion news for us , we are in a follouted world but our waters are clean and life continue...!!!
Some technic advices:

mana base
4x wasteland
1x strip mine
3x mishra's factory
1x library of alexandria
4x polluted delta
4x volcanic island
3x island
1x mox ruby
1x mox sapphire

22 , -black lotus , -4° mishra , we need more spells and we don't need many mana , only 2 to go.

--------------------------------------

Fishes
4x spellstutter sprite
3x cloud of faeries
3x grim lavamancer
2x gorilla shaman
1x waterfront bouncer/Looter il kor

7x Faeries it's ok , evasive critters.
Only 5 red critter because of some scriew in the tests , now we are rock solid.
1x tech slot , looter is good to dig into the deck ... with curiosity is a draw two discard one ... much more than a free brainstorm every turn...But bouncer is more solid ...don't know wich is better.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Drawers
4x standstill
3x curiosity
1x ancestral
1x brainstorm

i prefer 1x brainstorm above 4° curiosity because we have already 5 enchant creatures , that is much.
no ponder/mystical/merchant scroll

----------------------------------------------------------

Tools
2x sigil of sleep
1x crucible of worlds
1x timewalk

sigil is our bounce resource , with an evasive critter or grim lavamancer we have a costant way to bounce ... repitetively the best opponent creatures.
Crucible because without gushes our 5x strips is very powerfull .
Strips & Manlands recursion is great vs every decks ... only vs gushbased deck and faster combo is useless.

-------------------------------------------------

Protections
4x Force of will
3x Daze
3x Stifle
2x Mana leak/miscalculation

I tried to take only the more usefull cards.
I cut Red Elemental Blasts , Misdirections , Negates ... i choose for 2x Leak and 3x Stifle , the best.

 couple of notes, the bitterblossoms are insane, compounding damage very quickly if you have out the standstill.
the vondilions under performed i was not happy when i drew them and never unhappy that i did not.
1 scion seems good it can ramp your damage to absurd levels for the extra Punch if you feel drain tendrils are catching back up.

i feel the black is better then red because it gives us preemptive cards like thoughtsize also a insane win condition in bitterblossom + the tutors are helpful.
