A bit too fat, I know. But I was just thinking that maybe that if it could survive long enough to sink it's teeth into the game, it could work. I am seeing a load of "WWW.bounce" Wash Out/Warped Devotion/Waterspout Elemental w/Recoil, Repulse, Rushing River, Distorting Wake, and the likes. I think this U/W control deck could be good against it due to the Mercy's life gaining ability and the renaming of Voice to better suit the color protection advantage. The Blow is for Warped Devotion and The Mercy is for Pyre Zombie (although I could sideboard in Cremate for the Zombie ;)).
The Dromar is in there because I have never used it before so it gets the 61st. slot (a.k.a. "The Cutting Slot").
I was thinking maybe adding Ertai, The Corrupt (nah!).
Artice Wolf might be a good choice for it's synergy with Angel of Mercy and Voice of All.
I may have missed a discussion before on these decks but could anyone add or give advice for this?

You're always welcomed to fire the first shot Gizmo, and I appreciate the honesty!
Actually, maybe if I dump Black and splash Green for Questing Phelddgrif.
I'll post another deck list after lunch today.
:)

1x Treva, da Dragon
I think AoM and QP are gonna Rock in an IBC environment (as a rogue deck). I am seeing lots of bouncy U/B Discard decks so I'm thinking, sure, bounce my AoM back to my hand so I can cast it again. The QP's ability for Pro from B/R is a plus, too.
That's it, no more creatures.
4x Absorb
4x Prohibit (lots of hurtful little guys out there).
Perhaps 8x Counter Magic spells is a little light for a control deck, but I have ways of dealing with other stuff.
4x Reviving Vapors
4x Opt
Opt is good for diggin' for the right land and Vapors is a good searcher too along with it's life gaining ability.
4x Orim's Chant
3x Dismantling Blow
1x Tsabo's Web
2x Teferi's Moat
3x Meddling Mage
4x Coastal Tower
3x Elfhame Palace
1x Treva's Ruins
8x Plains
8x Island

I do not know what the current metagame environment is out there because folks out there are tighter lipped than, than,....well, this is a family show so I won't say thighter than what, but goodness, there's no real indication of what's going on out there, and maybe that's how it should be (I'm sure we'll all know after PT Japan <I can't spell Toe-key-yo>). However, I am LOCAL metagamming, and I tell ya, there's a lot of Warped Devotion decks in my town.

Anymore good sugesstions out there?
