Tap for 2 blue and play the Mastermind. Next, get Stasis into play. You can create a lock with those 2 cards and at least 3 mana. Just keep building your mana base until you can maintain the lock AND play additional spells.

Put Boomerang/Counterspell/Mana Leak onto the Scepters to enable every-turn bouncing/countering. Chain of Vapor can be useful in a pinch, or early game. Capsize is a potential bounce every turn for 6 mana.

Let their hand fill with cards they can't cast. Add to it while also helping yourself with Howling Mines. Kill them with up to 4x Black Vises (these can also be bounced back to your hand to be recast, when dealing with multiple opponents). It's a slow win but a win nonetheless.


Tolarian Academy not required. Replace with island.
