Maybeboard


Back in BFZ standard I played a deck centered around the Awaken mechanic. I had a lot of fun with it and wanted to try to make it work in EDH.

The deck is heavily control focussed, with a bunch counterspells and (often one-sided) boardwipes. Obviously this is a 'spells matter' deck, in which the goal is to grow and protect your awakened lands as well as possible.

Some remarks concerning card choices:

Land Protection: Teferi's Response , Equinox , Sacred Ground , Terra Eternal .

Land Boost: Brave the Sands , Always Watching , Inexorable Tide , Abzan Battle Priest , Abzan Falconer , Ainok Bond-Kin , Herald of Secret Streams , Halimar Tidecaller .

Removal: Path to Exile , Swords to Plowshares , Reality Shift , Snap , Return to Dust .

Nonland Boardwipes: Displacement Wave , Crush of Tentacles , Devastation Tide , Hour of Revelation , Planar Cleansing , Planar Outburst , Tragic Arrogance .

Countermagic: Counterspell , Disallow , Disdainful Stroke , Mana Leak , Negate , Rewind , Scatter to the Winds , Muddle the Mixture , Arcane Denial , Render Silent , Swan Song , Teferi's Response .

Draw: Blue Sun's Zenith , Brainstorm , Sphinx's Revelation , Fact or Fiction , Frantic Search , Coastal Discovery , Deep Analysis , Recurring Insight , Treasure Cruise .

Card Selection: Anticipate , Dig Through Time , Impulse , Preordain , Opt , Ponder , Jace's Sanctum .

Cantrips: Brainstorm , Opt , To Arms! , Ponder , Preordain , Serum Visions

Isochron Scepter Shenanigans: Azorius Charm , Counterspell , Hindering Light , Impulse , Reality Shift , Snap , To Arms! .
