This deck came out of a weird idea to create a deck that controls by hand and land.

The deck starts with standard hand control, trying to keep the power out of play and then switches to getting rid of their lands as fast as they can play them. All this while the deck slowly removes their very best threats out of their deck by way of Pick the Brain , Lost Legacy, and Crumble to Dust. The game ends when they take enough damage from the small pings throughout the deck or when Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger is cast and removes even more land. Hand recovery in this deck is found in Asylum Visitor and Sin Prodder.

While bizarre, Inverter of Truth might play a vital role in this deck with all of the cards which can cause me to lose my own important pieces and then regain all of the cards I had been using for one final push.
