Deck Description

mono blue stasis deck.
For more than 10 years, I tried many stasis decks. This one is one of the easiest to play : only one mana color, few combo cards, multiple ways to bring back islands and play them again to pay stasis upkeep cost.
However howling mines and gushes are enough to keep the combo, 2 forsaken cities make you feel the life better. Use Frozen Aether to lock your opponents.
Winning cards (2 choices) :
- black vise
- feldon's cane

Deck discussion for Mono_U_stasis

Nothing really wrong here. I too have played Stasis for years (and have two Stasis decks listed here), and agree that mono-U seems much easier to play. Jace Beleren is an excellent addition to this style of Stasis play.

The other alternative you could consider is Vedalken Mastermind as a means to bounce Stasis to your hand at every EOT. I personally have found bounce to be most effective, as I find it easy to protect the creature with a full suite of counters.

Note that in Legacy, Brainstorm is not restricted if you wish to play more.

If you're looking for some alternate takes, again, I have three Stasis builds here:

Alternatively to the Vise being the kill condition, you could also add Chronatog once to obtain the ultimate hardlock. The Howling Mines allow to shorten the 'clock' to create decking as a kill condition.
