Quiet Contemplation
Enchantment
Whenever you cast a noncreature spell, you may pay {1} Mana. If you do, tap target creature an opponent controls and it doesn't untap during its controller’s next untap step.

Glad you were able to find a place for Quiet Contemplation! Don't know if this card is any better than anything you already have, and you may already have as many water-bending cards as you want, but ran across Waterknot and I thought of you. It's actually nice pseudo-removal against commanders that want to attack or use tap abilities, since it doesn't allow them to go to the command zone! Not as good as Darksteel Mutation or Song of the Dryads for that purpose, but still has use, supports your "non-creature" theme, and is very on-flavor. :)

Halbrechtt thanks for the upvote. haha wow I’ve never seen that card before! There’s definitely a spot for Quiet Contemplation I’ll have a fiddle around and see where she can go.
Abzkaban thank you!

You know what card looks like Zuko?? Nameless Race! Too bad it's black!
Is there a slot for Quiet Contemplation in the deck? It also cares about non-creature spells, and it always reminded me of Katara. :D

If you're going to devote a deck to your favorite card (Nice choice, mine's Soulcatchers' Aerie), I would go all in. For example, in Dimir, Mana Skimmer is the Timeshifted version of Somnophore.
Time of Ice, Quiet Contemplation, Back to Basics, Dream Tides, Wrath of Marit Lage, Temporal Distortion, Neko-Te Thalakos Dreamsower, Wall of Stolen Identity, Frost Titan, Queen of Ice, Wall of Ice, Niblis of Frost, Guardian of Tazeem, Icefall Regent, Dungeon Geists, Mesmerizing Benthid, House Guildmage, Tidebinder Mage, Watertrap Weaver, Frost Lynx, Stitched Mangler, Fogwalker, and Vertigo Spawn would probably be my picks for "freeze" tribal.
Alternately, if you're not invested in Dimir, so much as in the creature itself, you could build a Derevi, Empyrial Tactician, or Empress Galina deck, since those commanders probably best represent what the card is doing.

Not sure if in this deck's long revision history this has ever come up, but how about Quiet Contemplation? It's not total removal, but it pretty much gives all of your spells the kicker effect of 'single-target' Sleep for .

I like Hunted Lammasu best of those options. Akroan Horse is good, but takes time to really earn itself, and there's a lot of artifact hate, from Kolaghan's Command to Abrade .1 horror is a lot easier to deal with than 5 goblins, though, yeah. I I should have looked through the hunted cycle again. I went down from 3 to 2 phantasms for that reason, 5 creatures being hard to keep under control.
I'll take out the time ravelers, but I'm not sure what I'll replace it with. If I end up needing more reliable creature presence on the opposite side of the board, I could add more Hunted Lammasu , but Niblis of Frost is also good, and I like the ability to make an Opt a free activated ability from Quiet Contemplation . Against aggro, lifelink would be helpful, so maybe Ojutai Exemplars instead of the niblis of frost?
As for having a way to permanently shut creatures down, that kind of goes against the aesthetic. The hope is that I'll be able to net more value out of it than my oppinent will with Verity Circle . Not all games will have verity circle out though, I know.
Gideon is a way to deal with tapped creatures, but he's a 1-of. Should I bump that number up, or go with a card like Swift Reckoning ?
