My (ill-fated) intentions were for this to be a conversation about the best cards to durdle with in Uwr -- and I felt white null rod was an excellent start. With that said, it would be a refreshing change of pace if people discussed decklists with the namesake card "Stony Silence" somewhere in the 75. If you're looking for the most optimal Young Pyromancer deck please check mtgtop8.com, morphling.de, or your website of choice for some excellent competitively proven decks.

The original list you posted has a single Stony silence, and is playing delved (the complete opposite of durdling?).  You should really be looking closer to a landstill build than a depver build if you just want to durdle.

My thoughts exactly. You can play a Landstill deck and even name it "Durdle.Deck" if you really want to.

Durdle implies you're doing something though, even if it ineffectual.

Actually the definition he gave states it's doing nothing. (Not that this is necessarily the only definition of durdling).  Landstill's "win cons" secondary purpose is winning the game, which is more what I'm getting at if you want a true durdle deck.  Cards like Young pyromancer, and delver* are not durdle cards.


*why does my phone autocorrect delver to depver it's not even a word!
