Think twice is nice cuz its Instant speed you can end of turn it during there turn and even flash it back during there turn. I played in a few drafts during the prerelease and that was a card i did get during one draft and it was a major advantage in the card draw game but in standard id run ponder.

This dose kinda resemble my build I really like the idea of Frost Titan he is sucks a big control beast! The land Drop is critical for Control and a missed drop could be what is the difference in the win and loss in a game. Ethan had told me that one time long ago on my first control deck. Also i'd like to add card advantage is also key, if you can draw your cards quicker to help you win the better. Recently he told me about Forbidden Alchemy. After placing it in my deck this morning and testing it shortly after, I seen real big differences because i found my self with the cards i need a lot quicker. Ponder is real nice and maybe just add in one or 2? I know that it helped me out alot! Nice build thoe.
Awe Torpor Orb that's a good card i like it i, and ya when i first saw stony silence i was like yes total pod shut down but didn't think about that it did it to my artifacts to.
As always I love the ideas you come across. The Sphinx you make a really valid point i really don't need that much to seeing as i don't have the harsh decks of the old standard to deal with. So for Now i'll cut him to one. Snap caster is a nasty animal, and No money is not really and Object I can get 4 snapcasters. So that being said I'll re-work this a bit. I do like that forbidden alchemy that seems like a really, good card. And yes DOJ im a whore on that to, I was just testing a build with it seems ok , but as I commented on runner's deck I find myself only getting screwed by that card more then not. So yes I'll be ending up with just my DOJ's no Divine. IDK about the stalker yet as you said he does AMAZING with a sword, and to ur other point since ive been testing, i have not had many games where i got that combo out so to say the least im still in the air on that. As always I really appreciate all the feedback and to say the least my deck usually end up better with the comments you have given, thanks again.!
Good call your right I don't have that many creature's so I'll play 4 ghost quarter's, i may end up switching up and going with the Inkmoth's,
Hey No problem :) thats what this site is right to help and show off your different decks glad i could be of some help.
Really nice build must agree that the Snapcaster's potential is ludicrous. There's so much you can do with him and then throw the sun titan in the mix and S*** starts getting real. Ghost Quarter is tricky but is just another insane card, it can take out man lands( inkmoth/the ability lands) and even cycle lands from your own deck like filter them out just another nice card. Again really nice Build. Hey can you give me some advise on my new "caw blade". Your always good with your decks and always helped with my other decks i'd just like to see what you'd think of this deck. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=238007
I have every card (snapcasters pre-orderd ) for this deck just trying to see what build i want to run. They will drop but not as much as everybody is anticipating.
Love Me some tap decks ^.^ Feeling of Dread is SUCH and AMAZING Card! Good build i need to go update my Tap deck now HAHA
well if your unsure about the life loss may a Wurmcoil engine? I have ran that in a U/W build before great late game life gain and wicked beater when killed repopulates. IDK just some more suggestions.
The best card was Feeling of Dread :) i pulled one in each pack i opened thats 12 tapped creatures that's so insane. Also the Moorland Haunt was amazing when one died i pooped in another spirit. it was the best draft i have ever had in my entire life of drafting and that's A LOT of drafts lol.
dude it was stupid how i was getting passed sweet cards i was actually passed 4 Dissipates lol but i only ran 3 lol. Oh im going on a limb everyone in my draft was Jank players cuz they must have went after the rares in the packs and not the win cuz for winning i got 6 packs for the stupidity lol.
Looks good now. I like the addition of the image! also the spell bomb? I'd replace it with more o-rings or dismembers you can never go wrong with removal! also love the Ratchet Bomb fantastic sideboard card! check at my Draft deck from the Pre-Release http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=238213
Also marrow shards? yes its a nice card again whines but not many whine decks left in standard, I'd think about Celestial Purge, its good against black and red, its like a perfect sideboard card.
also kinda has a blade feel that i was working on lol :P
Ok U/W control is got to be my fav build if you see my deck's Ive made its mostly U/W and i have had Major success with U/W in my tournament career. First you want to look at what kinda U/W you want, like aggro control, board control, card advantage or a little of all>? First you want the your counter spells main deck so that 4 mana leaks main deck no matter what, that's a must, and the Negates are fine where there at. Silent Departure is not good for the simple fact that its Sorcery speed, you want to try and run instant speed spells as much as possible. The Divine reckoning is a nice ALMOST board wipe. I would most definitely add DOJ's i just see the Divine not working as planned because you keep one creature and so do they.... Now another thing any control deck has is Removal, like creature, artifact, enchantment, land, the only thing i see really is the sideboard. You want to run like Oblivion rings/Dismembers main deck that helps you against Plainswalker/Creatures. Card draw is essential to Control, so you have to have 4 ponders, and the consecrated Sphinx. Also the sun titans nice you may want drop the overseer (which is still nice) to add in one or even two Sun Titans. And your land count is a little low, i suggest the Ghost Quarter, that has the potential to be an amazing card if used right. Like kill Non basic land and opponent has or even cycle some land out of ur own deck by sacking ur land to bring another land in there's crazy potential with that card especial with the Sun Titan cuz he brings it back and you just cycle land out of ur deck and draw what you really need just. Those are a few idea's that may or may not help you. ( These are just my opinions thoe) Hope this helps you a little bit.
I know not sure how this is going to run. I like blade splicer a lot, i may end up taking it out and adding in more images'. This is just a first draft new caw blade lol. I already miss my old Caw blade deck.
Drop the lanowar you dont need it. You already have enough mana ramp with the birds and simulacrum's. Sylvok Replica should be a sideboard card, and I'd main board another mimic vat. Check out my Pod deck. :) Deck link: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=234590
I did try running this many colors but i always seemd to bet getting screwed over on one color or another. This is def a different take on Pod. I know in my build I ramp mana pretty quick, but with the Architect looks like it goes pretty quick. The only they i see is there's no removal that could propose problems, but this is a good build. i love x Phyrexian Metamorph hes just so amazing and i tell you why, I was playing another pod deck and I was not drawing into my pod, and just used the Metamorph to clone his and then i o-ringed his lol. Just awesome.
your right much i see dont run white, but i liked the different types of removal! lol, and ya distress dose work better, but Im trying to keep it post rotation. I really need to play test some more.
