I found Johan while perusing my LGS for weird/old/off the wall generals, and I thought his ability to give all my creatures pseudo-vigilance was interesting. That evening I was sorting a box of cards I bought on eBay and came across Meekstone . I figured it went well with Johan's ability and I started to build a deck. Infinite Hourglass came along later and cleaned up my issue with smaller utility creatures, letting Meekstone and Marble Titan affect them too.

Essentially, this deck wants to control the board and win by keeping all its opponents creatures tapped and out of the way. It hasn't seen much playtesting yet, but I'm proud of it, simply because Johan is a weird general, and it seems to be a relatively original use for him from what I've seen so far. I'm looking to improve it any way I can, so any suggestions are appreciated!
