The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...
Start typing a card name and use the auto-complete feature to quickly select the card you're trying to add. Enter a quantity and add that card to your sideboard!
Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.
The idea here is to use Stasis to slow the tempo of the match down enough for me to start dropping the Leviathans (thats the idea anyway). Please let me know your thoughts.

In order for Stasis to work, you really need a way to not be effected by it. Cards like Boomerang, Rescue, or Chain of Vapor will allow you to bounce it back to your hand at the end of your opponent's turn thus allowing you to untap and not have to pay the upkeep on it. The classic way of the past was using Forsaken City and cards like Daze, Gush, etc. to ensure you always had lands to play before your next upkeep to fuel the upkeep. I LOVE playing Stasis, it's a card that no one likes playing against and when you can achieve a hardlock with the AEther with a kill condition like Chronatog you make enemies really fast. I've got a couple different Stasis builds on the site (http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=161172 and http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=227960). Perhaps you can find some ideas or flaws in my build and we can help each other out a little further? Hope these ideas help. If you get a chance, take a look at one of the decks I have posted here, I'd love your input (click on my name to see the deck list).

The Vedalken Mastermind allows me to bounce stasis back to my hand as well as any other card that might be in danger of being removed. It also counts towards the quest which is also a good thing in this deck, I used to have a nasty Stasis deck that my play group made me disband because nobody wanted to play vs. Forsaken city was going to be my choice until I came across the mastermind which suits this decks play style better. I always enjoy looking at other ideas for decks so I will take you up on your offer. Thinks for the info.
I completely overlooked the Mastermind, my apologies. But, here's a suggestion that you might like for sure. Meddle the Mixture is a hard counter that will let you search out any 2 CC mana cost in your library to bring to your hand effectively searching for a Stasis, Counterspell, etc. It's a great play to Meddle for a Counter so that your opponent can SEE that you have one, it's a great play as it gets into your opponent's head in regards to altering the tempo of their game.
O wow, thanks for the info. I will put that card in here very nice thanks.
