White / Blue Artifacts & Enchantments.

Control - (n) the power to influence or direct people's behavior or the course of events.

This is about supremacy. You have the power to create, and destroy, to stop the battle before it happens. Build your artifacts in safety behind invisible force-fields that punish your opponents. When your creations fall, it is not the end.

Destiny is in your hands.

Stax is usually not my thing, but I really wanted to make a deck for my new Hanna, Ship's Navigator. I like the idea of not getting hit, ever, and disrupting the hell out of my opponents. It's geared toward multiplayer, generally 3+ players. To avoid getting run-the-hell-over in the early game, I decided to use quite a few low CMC artifacts and enchantments. Even though the CMC is low, the cards I chose should be able to hold their own in the later game. If they can't, I'll just bring them back with Hanna and re-play them.

I would like this deck to run consistently, so if you're a Stax or Control player and have suggestions for cards that are must-haves or combos that I am missing out on, leave a comment below. If you're a fan, Gimme a +1! Thanks for stopping!
