Comments shouldn't affect "likes", in my opinion. It isn't a true reflection of actual 'likes'. But being an asshole about it is hardly justified lol. Anyways... Is Bitterblossom your win-con here? This looks pretty mean, but I would probably have at least 3 Cranials, but that's just me. I know they cost 4, but they have been super effective in my experience!
For number of cards I just mean the number of 1 ofs and things like that, little things.... like wouldn't you want to run either 3 Doom Blades or 3 Go for the Throats and sideboard the other 3? Maybe you don't run into that being an issue much at your FNM, it just looks weird to me is all haha. I've never been in a situation where I never ran into either someone using artifacts or someone using black creatures. You don't want a dead card in your deck! I do think getting Tez. out a turn faster would be excellent. Mana acceleration is pretty crucial imo especially against aggro. decks, but I suppose it could hurt your control a bit by using your mana. Like I said I don't think this is bad by any means and I'm not trying to diss your deck or anything, some things just confused me a little bit. But if it wins, it wins! There's not much arguing with that lol
I agree with Natasdroll. Drop Evolving and Terramorphic since you already have 8 fetchlands...4 more coming into play tapped is just useless overkill. 4 Gatekeepers of Malakir and 4 Dark Rituals are a MUST in any Vampire deck. At least 3 Guul Draz Vampires are extremely useful. Sanguine Bond + Blood Tribute is instant win, you should consider it.
I like that you have confidence in this deck but I think you may be overestimating it a little bit... You have way too many lands. You don't have any mana acceleration. The numbers of cards are honestly just all over the place... You definitely have some power in here, I would just tighten it up a little bit. If this is placing consistently at your FNM, you are either pretty lucky or the people you play with don't know what they're doing.
Hell yeah! Panoptic + Living Wish is really cool. Whatever card you want, every turn? Hellloooooo
Holy shit man, I completely forgot about Enlightened lol. I was going around my ass to get to my elbow with Muddle the Mixture...it's counter use isn't variable enough to even be considered really. In lieu of the inclusion of Enlightened, I'm switching Power with Brainstorm because 1) it can draw me that artifact I just put on top of my library and 2) it is another option for imprinting on an Iso to get basically infinite deck manipulation. The Powers were just tempting to couple with Iso, but after some testing they honestly didn't help that much. I'm still not 100% sure whether I'm going to keep Brainstorm or use Preordain instead. It requires some testing to see which works better. In all honesty, this is the ONLY blue deck I've ever made since Preordain came out that didn't include 4 of them. I really wanted Power Artifact to work lol
But Living Wish is a sorcery... you should read Isochron Scepter again... you can't do it. Now, Iso + Memory Lapse or Iso + Counterspell is WHAT'S UP (especially Memory Lapse, one of the easiest locks to pull off in all of Magic history :D)
Yeah man, I really want those Grindclocks...I'd put 3 in, but there's literally nothing I can take out for them. The denial/sweep is way too crucial...I'll probably make another colorless charge counter variation that includes them. Isn't this deck beast though? It seriously fucks shit up, and is usually quick about it. The only drawback is that 3 of it's most crucial pieces are expensive as hell...2 Karns, 4 Wurmcoils and 4 Inkmoth Nexuses net about $90, although that's really not that bad for such a good deck. All the other cards are relatively cheap except All is Dust, which are like $6 a pop. I was thinking about maybe swapping 1 Wurmcoil for 1 Hellkite and 2 Grindclocks for the 2 All is Dust to make it more affordable, but that would only be detrimental really. Sweeping an opponent's entire board (except lands) with sacrificing is EXTREMELY win!
Actually, you should throw some Swiftfoot Boots in there as well. Good ol' Stuffy is indestructable, but not immune to being exiled, -1/-1 counters, or becoming unable to tap, and he's your only win-con here so you want to protect him from your opponents (but not yourself lol :p) You could sideboard some cheap counters as well because if Stuffy gets extracted, it's game over!
This is pretty epic man. Stuffy Doll ftw! The only thing I would say is add blue to the deck colors lol Oh and as others have said before, a couple Seething Songs and 4 Rite of Flames should help!
I completely agree about Preordain. ALMOST EVERY BLUE DECK CAN BENEFIT FROM THIS CARD. Scry and card draw? Thank you very very very much. Preordain replaces Divination period.
Except equipping any of those Illusion creatures would cause you to sacrifice it... Equip = targeting Also, counters won't save your creatures either. Say someone targets your Phantasmal Bear with a Doom Blade, you play Negate to counter Doom Blade. Doom Blade gets countered, and you have to sacrifice your Phantasmal Bear because it got targeted and it's triggered ability goes on the stack immediately. Many people aren't understanding how these illusion creatures work, I hope this helps!
Okay so if you're going to make this Legacy, here's some suggestions. - 4 Grand Architect - 1 Phantasmal Dragon - 3 Divination - 2 Negate - 3 Spell Pierce + 4 Phantom Warrior + 1 Phantasmal Image + 4 Preordain + 4 Counterspell Ta-da! Much better.
Damnation ;)
You have 4 Preordains now!!! YES. Liked. :)
I like this. So much artifact hate! But where is Creeping Corrosion? It would be pretty epic to play against with the Colorless Control deck I just made. Race to Karn!!! Peep it out if you'd like - http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=218195
I frigging love this. I bought 2 Crucibles a long time ago when I started playing Magic for no reason other than I was playing Sundering Titans (lol) and never really gave them a second thought, but this is what they are for... I'm definitely going to build something similar to this when I get some extra loot.

This deck is really awesome. SO MUCH PING. Though I'm sure you've thought about this, how about throwing in some epic untap to get even more damage out per turn? Crackleburr - though he's a littler color specific, he can tap sick creatures to still do damage, or can untap your pingers and boomerang a pesky creature Cerulean Wisps - gives you an extra ping and deck thinning for one blue! It could even make Crackleburr's 2nd ability possible if you only have one blue creature out at the time. How about pinging with a Curiosity creature, Cerulean Wisps, and ping again? 2 damage and 3 drawn cards for almost nothing Breaking Wave - obviously 2 rounds of full ping in a turn is extremely win Just some ideas! You probably don't want to dilute your core straight ping focus but these could seriously get some extra damage in there, especially Cerulean Wisps. Those are so frickin' sweet!
