this deck has 4 main cards in it which is....boobey trap
deck list is deals with cards which put stuff back on top of their owners libary as an instant such as hinder or stuff like that so in your turn you could play boobey trap and insure 10 damage then you have sway of the 7 stars to increse the fun and ensure victory with 10 damage
It's actually not a terrible idea, this combo has been mentioned for a while, but I don't think its viable in T2. Just not enough cards that put things back on the top of the library. Plus its a 6 mana artifact and you have to have hindered something durring your opponent's last turn.

splash black for the new 1/1 for B saying "1,sac a creature: look on the tp 2 cards of the opponent's libary, then remove one of them from the game". Play the trap, sac the 1/1 to itselfand name the card that your opp is about to draw.
Just for reference, mono:symu: burn, would look something like:
:symu:burn 4 Psychic Purge 4 Mind Bomb 4 Winter's Chill 4 Psionic Blast 4 Volcanic Eruption 2 Energy Vortex 2 Sway of the Stars 4 Force of Will 2 Twincast 4 High Tide 20 Island 4 Rishadan Port SB: 4 Suffocation
Not that it'd be good, but...

Best Sway of the Stars combo I ever saw was Sway + Healing Salve + Second Rite.
I have a T2 deck that uses Sway to set up a next turn win.
Helix is played imprinting a Promise of Power and Sway of the Stars.
Cast Promise for the critter.
Helix triggers putting a copy of the card Sway of the Stars on the stack, for which I can play it at instant speed for free.
Play the Sway copy.
Last in first out applies.
Sway of the Stars (copy) resolves resetting the board, filling all players hands to seven cards and sets all players at seven life.
Promise of Power (originally cast) resolves providing you a 7/7 flying Demon token.
7-Up (8th Edition Standard:)
4 Promise of Power 2 Sway of the Stars 4 Spellweaver Helix 4 Thirst for Knowledge 4 Concentrate 3 Gifts Ungiven 4 Serum Visions 4 Mana Leak 2 Condescend 4 Barter in Blood 4 Talisman of Dominance 3 Chrome Mox 2 City of Brass 2 Tendo's Ice Bridge 2 Salt Marsh 2 Waterveil Cavern 1 Shizo, Death's Storehouse 1 Tomb of Urami 1 Oboro, Palace in the Clouds 1 Minamo, School at Water's E 1 Mikokoro, Center of the Sea 3 Swamp 2 Island SB: 4 Cranial Extraction SB: 4 Hideous Laughter SB: 4 Defense Grid SB: 2 Boseiju, Who Shelters All
but i still think you would fare better casting gaze of adamaro or sudden impact after sway of the stars...
well who knows..

The Sage is occupied with the unspoken
and acts without effort.
Teaching without verbosity,
producing without possessing,
creating without regard to result,
claiming nothing,
the Sage has nothing to lose.
for the low low cost of 10 colorless 2 blue and 2 red you win the game... Sway+Gaze/Sudden impact.. Sway is fun with any of the Maros as well...Personally i been doing Lava spike/Sway on a Spellweaver using Desperate rit and Seething song to get the extra mana on turn 4 casting spelweaver imprint lava and sway getting 7 new cards and oppenent being at 4... with v-Hammers lava spikes and flames of the blood hand...

Excuse me, but Gaze and Sudden Impact are Instants and will not imprint. I'm working on a 1.X version swapping out for using Spiring Embers.

Too much to depend on for the combo. In the :symu::symb: version I played it as a pseudo-control deck, willing to use my first Helix for things like Concentrate and Barter in Blood. Even using Embers, you'd unlikely need Seething Song, and having to have 10UURR is so unnecessary.

Maybe the U/B draw/control deck I have been making could run. I think with all of the Dimir goodies and the abundance of good U/B cards from Kamigawa block, that U/B will be quite competative in the new type two.

Or any number of other hards that commonly show up which completely hose the deck.
Fun for casual, not constructed.
