All you need is Leyline of Anticipation. Play See Beyond on thier turn or temple bell and into the roil on thier turn with kicker or Foresee or Preordain. Also Lighthouse Chronologist helps too (taking extra turns is key obviously). Run Sleep as well, if they cant attack and dont untap and you take 2 turns with Lighthouse Chronologist they are defenseless, and you can stall them to level Level Chronologist. I dont even run counters in mine i just have answers and scry for them. Thats how I run my Archmage deck and it works like a charm everytime basically.

this cards has, for several times, given me the game, usually i play with two other friends, my deck is based on drawing cards and having a large hand, a few creatures with */* (*=nº of cards in my hand), some control, hand a hole bunch of drawing cards like rhystic study, temple bell, words of wisdom, flow of ideas, Azami, Lady of Scrolls, and some cards like Venser's Journal. but usually i win with this card in full, all i have to do is "oh look is it my turn? then let me get this card (time strech) so you never play anything again"

Question: Can I prevent myself from decking out with this card by choosing not to draw and instead activating the effect of Archmage Ascension? I use this card in combination with Mind Unbound to help this enchantment's way onto 6 counters. Eventually it got to the point where I searched out my entire library and there is debate where if I have no cards left in my library I must choose to draw. Is this true?

Blue is the shortbus color from now on. Most non-control players are fine with this since blue is the douchebag color, and control players well screw them

The problem I find with this card is that if you do have a deck that draws a lot of cards every turn, or if you do try and build a deck around this, by the time it gets online your deck is only twenty cards and you've probably already drawn your best cards. Six quest counters is just enough to where this won't work the way you want it to. 2.5/5

That`s an incredibly long waist she has. She looks like a two-legged centaur.
