{Angus Macenzie}

And I really like {Prophet of Kruphox} with him so you can just have no damage every turn lol

 {Ghostly Prison} and others like it
{Witchbane Orb} and other stuff to prolong the game
{Grindclock}, {Keening Stone},  {Mesmeric Orb}, and just survive till they mill themselves out? Im not sure if this is the best deck to build, but thats what id do.

Angus is definitely a control freak.

You can even use all the circles of protection!

I was thinking of playing a deck with angus and the theme of the deck is effects that happen when they enter the battle field and use a lot of flicker spells any reccomendations

If that's what you're looking for, I highly recommend picking up the Commander2013 Bant deck. It's very heavily based on flicker effects, and is even the same colors as Angus! It would be super easy to swap Angus in there, plus I know from experience that the Bant deck is pretty solid.

Turbo frog EDH? I'm highly intrigued. FI you do decide to go this route isochron scepter is fun with this deck. Tutors will get pieces such as {orim's chant} or fog. {Stifle} is going to be interesting here too or a budget version such as  {Squelch} could work.  {Path to Exile} or swords can help you avoid the occasional spaghetti monster or face eating, indestructible demon/angel/ dragon/ combo of the above that is very common in EDH. board wipes, especially one sided ones are fun and  {Curse of the Swine} makes opponents cry if you have  {Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite}, or as I like to call her, the crazy hat lady, on the field anywhere. It is very mana intensive for the curse to work, but the only other curse I would want is everyone's favorite storm hater and occasional combo piece  {Curse of Exhaustion}. I would also run a few mana dorks in here and a ton of draw and draw shaping cards such as  {Brainstorm} or {ponder}.  {Thassa, God of the Sea} is going to be a fit only because of her scary scry ability and not her body, which while impressive will not be very exiting in this dress.

So to sum it up
TL DR: Thassa needs a different dress, I need sleep to continue to keep helping with this build, and we all need to avoid giant face eating spaghetti monsters from beyond the dawn of time.
