I am currently looking for cards that will slow down my opponent. An example would be Island Sanctuary, it is not modern legal, but it has the type of effect I am looking for. Silent Arbiter is another card and I am considering using it.
Here is a few things I want the card to be.
1. A lower converted mana cost, preferably nothing over four mana.
2. Budget price for paper, nothing over five dollars. (If there is two different versions, The cheapest one is great.)
3. The color is preferably blue, but does not have to be.
The deck I want this for involves triton shorestalker and cards like curiosity, that I can keep exploiting with combat damage. So if there is a card invovling combat damage, that would be perfect.
Most of these decks that you have suggested above, are more like combo plays, or requires a bunch of cards to work. For mono blue boomerang, you need a full deck of such cards, or a way to return it so you can keep returning their lands. Enchantress prison also requires more cards, relying on about 8 or 12 to get a full effect, using cards like ghostly prison, propaganda and sphere of safety. Each one of these could do fine alone, so it might be worth having a look at these. Lantern control is out of the question, because of my absurd card draw, and cost wise to buy. Turbo fog is interesting, but I am unsure if I am willing to put enough fog like cards in it.
Overall, I am sticking with Silent arbiter, because by itself, it achieves what I need. I am not trying to achieve a prison, just slow them down enough, for my deck to outpace them. If there are any suggestions, please list the card, as it might come in great help, because Silent arbiter is not perfect.
Silent Arbiter, is really easy to kill, but in my deck, it wouldn't be too unlikely to give it hexproof. I'm already planning on using four Mana Leaks to slow them down, but this is still probably not enough. As I'm fiddling with my deck, I'm leaning more towards blue/white, which makes Enchantress prison seem more appealing.
I will test these out, and see which ones work.
Thanks
