Avacyn Restored Update —May 3, 2012
So now that Tamiyo, the Moon Sage is an actual card, let's invite her over for some Magic: The Gathering!
Tamiyo's abilities seem perfectly suited to this deck. She can:
+1: stall out a player relying on one imposing creature at a time.
-2: profit tremendously in card advantage after Fogging a horde of tapped creatures.
-8: Fog forever and ever and ever and ever, barring Dissipate. Also: Thought Scour for the kill.
I decided to drop red entirely. I have enough of that going on in my burn version of this deck (Tibalt's Turbofog. To replace Blasphemous Act as a board wipe, I may end up including Devastation Tide. It's a panic button, to be sure, and may not always be very beneficial, but bouncing everything is better than getting killed next turn.
Anyway, I'm resetting all the old comments under this update. Thoughts and opinions about Tamiyo and everything else is definitely welcome.
No problem dorminjake. though i'd love some credit in the description lol :p

I applaud you good sir. I would probably also Update the chat to somewhat clear up this 80+ posts so its easier read so long as there arent still applicable suggestions.
But, even if there is only 2 or 3, I would definately add back in Jace's Erasure. Its such a hard to deal with card pre-side board and even if you only get 1 out, its still that extra mill a turn. It would just make things faster.

Charmbreaker Devils is a truly fantastic suggestion. Cudoes Nephilim =)

I, personally, see a lot of werewolves with Kessig, so I'm wondering what this deck would do against them? Moonmist is crap against them and they can be awfully agro. Anything on that? Oh, and +1 because I love Turbo-Fog builds

Charmbreaker Devils is so nuts.
Most fun thing in the world is to have only Dissipates in your yard and Devils on the board. Guess what's going to be played whenever your opponent plays a spell? :D It's even worth using a Nihil Spellbomb on yourself for.

In my opinion Jace's Erasure is worth it. Even as a 2-3 of. A turn 2 erasure, turn 3 rite, (turn 4 looking pretty) turn 5 jace is the stupidest play you can do. And by stupid I mean the best. I use it in my (somewhat less than stellar) deck:blue-green-standard-mill-fog. Regardless I still think this deck is awesome and taking it to an FNM gets credit from me.

@wizard924- I've beaten Kessig on a consistent basis. Hell, this FNM I was at 1 life and 9 infect but he couldn't get the job done before I milled him out. In decks like this, think of life (and poison) as just another resource to stall with. It kills me to watch people Fog against four or even six points of damage.

@wizard924 The only card werewolves really ruin is Moonmist, which is more annoying than game breaking for game 1. After game 1, you just sideboard in something to replace the Moonmists, perhaps Witchbane Orbs to prevent the damage caused by Ravager of the Fells flipping or something unexpected like a Tovolar's Magehunter.

i wonder if is playable in a turbo fog, gain some life while negating combat, then if you can't mill them, you can deplete their life with the flip, Chalice of Death

I don't see working well. My usual strategy is to tank the first few hits from creatures before I start fogging, which usually takes me down pretty low. Since the chalice only restores 1 life per activation, it's going to take a really long time to get to 30, even with Blunt the Assault helping on occasion.
Anyway, if I had room for the chalice, I'd probably put Jace's Erasure back in instead. As it stands, the Erasures really just make my opponent angry more than it actually wins games, but at least it synergizes well with everything else in the deck.

If only Howling Mine/ Jace Beleren was in standard...

hmmmm....im seriously considering adapting Decimator Web you dont even have to mill, just fog for 10 turns and you win.

i was thinking just to be more annoying you could add Phantasmal Image to copy your Snapcaster Mages and bring back more fogs lol.

@theurbanraptor I know what you mean! I built a shell of a Decimator Web fog deck a couple of days ago, and was all excited until I realized the web's ability cost so much. I was reeeally hoping it was automatic every upkeep. I'm sure there's still a deck to be built, but for now I'll leave it in other, more capable hands.
@everyone I think there's a place for some Hysterical Blindness effects in the sideboard. I will look at this for a bit.

its like im stalking you, so many posts...
I was also thinking, if it was possible to splash white, you could use venser / stonehorn, or venser / geralfs mind crusher, since he mills 5 cards when he comes into play.

Runechanter's Pike might be a funny late game twist. xD

lol i love how your fog has 48 votes, i have 3 (including one from me) :p

Oh my gods, Charmbreaker Devils! I...I want to run these. I--. Yes indeed.
Dies horrifically to removal, but so does Consecrated Sphinx. The Sphinx's enemy draw step ability triggers sooner than the Devils' your next upkeep ability though, so sorcery-speed removal would kill the devils without you ever getting to net any card advantage.
And both are 6-drops. I'm going to have to think about this for--
Nvm, I'm including Charmbreaker Devils, because Charmbreaker Devils.
Thanks Nephilim!
