Standard vs a year in the making deck?

[lotrwk]

5 colour control baby. Rolled a 13

[Ieatfood7]

I roll 11.

So you want standard? Competitive or fun?

[lotrwk]

Competitive.

{Steam vents} tapped
Pass
20/6

[Ieatfood7]

This is a largely untested deck but I think its good. If not I'll switch to a tested one.

Draw. {orzhov guild gate}. Pass

20/7

[lotrwk]

{Godless shrine} take 2
Pass
18/6

[Ieatfood7]

Draw. {thought seize}. What you got?

[lotrwk]

In response I {Azorius charm} to draw

{Temple garden}
{Breeding pool}
{Blood crypt}
{Jace, architect of thought}
{Fog}
{Sphinx's revelation}

[Ieatfood7]

Discard sphinx's revelation.

I play { temple of silence} scry and pass.

I'm on my way out so my next turn may be delayed.

[Vileo]

Side note: unless it's a big Sphinx's Revelation, never draw in response to a Thoughtseize... It gives them more to look at.

A lot of the time, Azorius charm is seen as a threat. It provides removal, card draw, and possibly, however less likely, gaining the upper hand with life. Though yeah, there was a bad time
