Wouldn't the Kill Switch tap the Voltaic Key? You would have to use Relic Bind.

rakso: Go to bed, man! :)

Griffy: Splash blue and use that buyback tap/untap spell :)

No, seriously, maybe you should swap Creeping Molds instead of Kill Switches. And maybe Tangle Wire for the Orbs. 'Cause I don't think it's going to work :(

My first thought was to use Blue, Trickster Mage, Opposition, Hoodwink... That sort of thing.
Maybe some artifact mana like Star compass Sky Diamonds, Cameo...
Also rhystic spells, and some creatures like Gulf squid, Jolting Merfolk and/or stuff like Ribbon Snake where You have to pay 2 to keep it from flying .
Maybe splash white, like LotusMox said "creatures that don't tap to attack".
What do You think?

Or maybe Static Orb would fit into a modified Skies deck which needs very few lands to operate.
Maybe Ribbon Snake would replace Rishadan Air ship and Trickster mage for Spiketail Hatchling.
I don't know, just some random thoughts.

4 Spiketail Hatchling

I had tried a white green with untapping creatures and it really doesn't play right the static orb slows down an already slow deck. White blue with trickster mage or plain blue with the mage may be it.

the trick is to tap the orb during you opp. turn.

It will untap naturally during your untap step with all the rest and will prevent your opp of untapping.

Why not simply use elder druid ? I think he is reprinted in 7th isnt he ?

Play some elves to get him out early, maybe a couple of birds. Drop the elder and the orb and you're in business.

I quickly went over the thread and saw it mentionned.

Esp. with green you should have enough mana available.

If you play extended just go with the icy.

Propaganda + static orb = good luck for trying to attack.
Could add sphere of resistance or Kismet to make your opponent even happier.

for Gizmo, but I just saw Mundungu is also under the wrong impressions...

The Static Orb will NOT untap during your untap step. Only Kill Switch will untap. Thus, unless you have another way of untapping the Orb before your opponent's turn, it will remain tapped and it will not affect him either for that turn.
