Paralyze
Enchantment — Aura
Enchant creature
When Paralyze enters the battlefield, tap enchanted creature.
Enchanted creature doesn't untap during its controller's untap step.
At the beginning of the upkeep of enchanted creature's controller, that player may pay . If he or she does, untap the creature.

FormOverFunction: those cards aren't modern legal, and i think you were thinking of a different card when you mentioned Paralyze.

You might benefit more from untap effects, as the vehicles are not creatures at that point. I think something like Smoke or Meekstone may be more what you’re thinking of..? Speaking of untapping, as I usually forget about mentioning it, I think Paralyze offers you the opportunity to untap something when it isn’t going to otherwise. It’s expensive (four) and can only happen in your upkeep (not untap phase) but I have been meaning to mention it for over a year. I hope this makes sense, I haven’t had any coffee at this point.

TheMeadiator, let me start with thank you, I had fun writing this one. I definitely have a problem with aggro decks but when playing casually I add Paralyze in exchange for my Hissing Miasma, it helps but isn't a big game changer.

You might want to update this decks listing to be “Casual” instead of “Modern”, as it has a bunch of cards which aren’t Modern-legal - namely Temple of the False God, Paralyze, Sol Ring.

All of a Pauper's Stax Pieces

It maybe doesn't fit your definition of Stax in Pauper but I would consider adding cards like: Mana Chains (I think it's still boken online), Paralyze, Contaminated Ground and Psychic Venom

I would also recommend Marauding Blight-Priest , but I would like to recommend taking out Kalastria Healer and Vermin Gorger . How about switching the Gorger to another gorger: Savage Gorger . With all the pings, Ol' Savage is almost guaranteed a counter each turn. Vermin Gorger just doesn't have good hits beside Kalastria Healer ; which isn't great. Regarding the Healer, I would either swap it for Dusk Legion Zealot or; If you are counting to go into the late-game, Bloodrite Invoker could be a serious threat, pummeling for three with drain while still synergizing with the theme of the deck. If not, Dusk Legion Zealot could be a good one-shot card draw while still holding a chump. With stall-y decks like this, Withercrown doesn't seem great. Go with Cast Down instead. On that note, I feel that Paralyze is self-deprecating in this deck. With the extra mana they have, they can just pay the tax needed for Paralyze , and swing in. If you want to keep their baddies at bay, I would recommend Typhoid Rats (in the main board), a Oldie but a Goodie. The Rats do a great job on defense, and most-often trade up. (Kill a creature with a greater mana value or alternate cost.) Vampire Envoy doesn't do much in a pillow-forty deck like this, i would take it out for Sign in Blood .
Misc. Recommendation: Mesmeric Fiend / Toll of the Invasion - Both snatch your opponents best cards and leave a body, which can be a Mirror-Breaker. (Although Mesmeric Fiend is a bit risky)

I love statistics though.
I'm picking up copies of all these cards now lol especially these
I just want to mention Gaea's Touch , this card is criminally underplayed.
