Now you may look at this deck and say, "Hmm... That's a neat little High Tide combo to skirt around people playing Gaea's Blessing or Emrakul." And you're right. You can certainly win the game by making infinite mana with Cloud of Faeries and Cloudstone Curio and then making your opponent draw then discard their entire deck with Dimir Guildmage. However! You may have noticed a few other cards that seem... A little out of place? Quick backstory, I was undefeated for three months with a similar High Tide deck back in 2005 where I was regularly milling my opponents with Brain Freeze. That is until a "friend" decided to slip Gaea's Blessing into his Goblin deck. So after that embarrassment I decided to create this deck, which included a devious, dare I say, maniacal alternate Non-Win condition!!!

It's simple. 1: Make infinite blue and black mana with the Cloud of Faeries/Cloudstone Curio combo. 2: Draw your entire deck using either Dimir Guildmage or Whispers of the Muse. 3: Capsize (Buyback) all of your opponent's permanents. 4: Make your opponent discard their entire hand/deck with Dimir Guildmage. 5: Play Null Profusion. 6: Play Sky Swallower. 7: Capsize (Buyback) Sky Swallower and all other permanents, except for Null Profusion to your hand. 8: Play the second Null Profusion. 9: Play Tormod's Crypt. 10: Play Mind Shatter on yourself. 11: Sac the Crypt. 12: Laugh like Dr. Evil as your opponent tries to figure out what just happened.

Oh and there's no sideboard because you'll likely get banned from your LGS before you get to play a second game.
