Deck Description

I have been playing Stasis for about 7-8 years. I have tweaked this deck over the years. I've noticed with this deck I need options in order to win that is why there are odd number of cards. I have a high percentage of wins with this deck.

Explanation of why each card is in the deck:

Stasis: Duh its a stasis deck therefor I need 4
Frozen Æther: Needed for Stasis lock. 4 was too many therefore dropped down to 3
Chronatog: Needed for stasis lock
Black Vice: Took out 1 chronatog and replaced it with this guy. (Options)

Howling Mine: Used to draw more cards to feed my thirst for cards and also Forsaken City
Jace Beleren: Took out 1 Howling Mine for this guy. Good drawing and also has a mill effect. (Options)
Gush: Only one because well it was restricted, not restricted, restricted, not restricted... so screw it only one.

Echoing Truth: Great bounce spell (Options)
Boomerang: Great bounce spell and good for pesky lands (Options)
Chain of Vapor: Great bounce for stasis and I can also bounce something of my opponents if need be. (Options)

Arcane Denial: Good counterspell with a bonus of drawing an extra card to replace the counterspell
Counterspell: The original counterspell... again Options
Force of Will: Need I say more?
Muddle the Mixture: 1, I can transmute for stasis or something else for 2 casting cost. 2, I can counter a spell. (Options)

Demonic Tutor and Vampiric Tutor: Two of the best tutors in the game, thus the splash of black

Ivory Tower and Zuran Orb: The way this deck plays, the games I did lose, I lost because I didn't have a few more life points. Thus the two cards that allow me to have a little extra life. (Options)

Isochron Scepter: I first had 3 Scepters in the deck but took most of them out for other cards. I still kept one for options b/c it is freaking awesome to have a bounce or counter on a stick.

Sol Ring: Good mana acceleration for blue.

Forsaken City: I had 4 at first but took one out b/c having 2 to 3 F. Citys on the board kinda sucks... (Also it taps for Black)

Reliquary Tower: Replaced spellbook, it gives me a land and the same ability. (Options)

Underground Sea: If I had 4 they would all be in this deck but since i only own 3 and don't plan on buying a 4th one, I have 3 in the deck.

Island: It's a blue deck....

(If I could afford any of the power nine, they would be in here... I'm a broke high school teacher so yea, I don't make very much money to blow on only ONE card lol)

If you notice, most of the cards in the deck are really cheap to play in order to help when I do play stasis.
