Deck designed around using Permeating Mass. The deck strength is that it is a low cost deck that has a couple tricks that we are trying to exploit. This deck is not a serious deck for topping at an FNM, but ment to be a silly deck that has winning potential.

Trick of the deck:

Once you transform enemy creatures into Permeating Mass, try and get your Fairgrounds Warden or Spell Queller transformed as well. Once these creatures have been transformed due to mass effect, then they will lose their ability to return the card the have locked down. If we take this a step further, we can use Eldrazi Displacer or Essence Flux to "flicker" the creature and have them return to normal and lock up a new target.

Down side of the deck:

There is no way to force you opponent to block the mass for combat damage outside of Destined/lead (link not working) and I don't think its worth the black splash. Next weakness to the combo end is that there is no way to force our opponent to use there already transformed creatures to block or attack into our combo pieces. Last weakness is that all the creatures are really small and can be overwhelmed by larger creatures relatively easy.

Strengths to the deck:

It is a low cost deck that can win by means of rush and has enough blue/white control options that that it can win without the combo.

Update: deck in the process of changing out cards to be less complicated and have more reliable game play. The goal will be to keep it as bant spirits, but with less dedication to the mass. Deck may become a bant flash style deck at this rate. Deck changes after some consideration from the new set.
