      I won a lotus in like, 2009/10/11 area with a deck playing

      3 Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas
      4 Dark Confidant
      3 Phyrexian Revoker
      2 Master of Etherium
      1 Vendilion Clique
      Full moxes + 1 Opal

      The number of people who said 'THEY STAY 5/5?!" was great.

      Brass Man (to me): "Yeah, you're very specific about the things you're really mean about."

          @moorebrother1 GaT is alive and well, people just don't want to deal with their 9/9 managorger hydra getting destroyed by a STP.

              On my walk home from work today, I came up with an idea I'm calling "Key Control"

              Produce lots of mana:

              • Lots of artifact mana production
              • 3-4 Voltaic Key
              • Paradoxical

              Use lots of mana:

              • Time Vault
              • 2+ Blightsteel Collosus
              • Walking Ballista
              • Mind Twist
              • Banefire
              • Black Sun's Zenith

              Possible fun-ofs:

              • Charbelcher (cutting lands down to Academy and Minamo
              • Other ... Sun's Zeniths
              • Trinisphere - I'm making a shitload of mana, why do I care about a 3ball?

                @thecravenone leyline helm works too and grindstone/painter is an alternative

                If you do it add at least one paradox engine. I built it with that and it was awesome.

                  Played this pile of Vintage-legal cards today. (5C Staxx)

                  [[Spire of Industry]] and [[Chromatic Lantern]] were both friend recommendations and were great in the deck.

                  Play of the day was:

                  Waste your Underground sea. Float (3) with Workshop. Tap Emerald. Crop Rotate sacrificing Workshop. Get Strip Mine. Strip Mine your Island. Cast Trinisphere. You have no permanents. Go.

                  Deck was fun to play but ultimately just too slow. Many games I was struggling not to lose instead of being able to even begin to execute my gameplan.

                  5C Staxx was the second deck I ever built in any constructed format. It was fun to get back to it. I might tweak a bit and play it again next time around rather than switching to another crazy deck as I'd planned.

                        How about Vintage Taking Turns with Baral, Burning Wish for Time Walk, Regrowth, and Snapcaster?

                          Red shops is a pretty fun variant of shops IMO.
