A bit of a spin on modern control decks. The idea is to stall out the opponent until you can land a miracle (There's the exception!) and skid to the win on that. In order to skew the odds in our favor we have a deck loaded with scry effects. Everything is instant-speed so that mana can be saved for the opponent's turn and the second chance at a miracle that provides.

The group my play with isn't the most competitive, and I have had some success with this deck. An Entreat the Angels on turn 5 or later has won me several games, while Bonfire of the Damned and Terminus help me break Zoo decks I can't quite keep down.
