Started out as a challenge to myself to build a 4-of Fbltp deck in standard. Ended up being my best standard deck.

The key is Heartwarming Redemption . Because early cantrips like Fblthp, the Lost and Revitalize keep your cards-in-hand high, while also providing survivability, Heartwarming Redemption gives you a huge ability to churn through your deck looking for whatever you need while gaining life. The wincon is milling via Psychic Corrosion , most normally paired with Heartwarming Redemption but there's plenty of other draw in there too.

Lots of mass removal, with plenty of other spot removal via Deputy of Detention and Prison Realm . Planeswalkers and control are generally the biggest danger, but between the deputies and prison realms, plus one Star of Extinction which comes in handy surprisingly often, we're able to mitigate the former.

Need to tweak mana base for a bit more blue, and get a consistent sideboard.
