Mono U Control
1 Eye of Ugin
4 Tectonic Edge
4 Halimar Depths
4 Scalding Tarns
1 Mystifying Maze
12 Island
4 Everflowing Chalice
3 Ratchet Bomb
3 Steady Progress
1 Jaces' Ingenuity
4 Jace, the Mindsculptor
1 Jace Beleren
4 Mana Leak
4 Stoic Rebuttal
2 Into the Roil
3 All is Dust
3 Wurmcoil Engine
2 Sphinx of Jwar Isle
I came up with this deck in an attempt to do something constructed worthy with Proliferate. Steady Progress is the only card that was reasonably cost to use the mechanic and being and instant speed cantrip helped a little. I have several cards that use counters to my benefit. Proliferating and being able to add a counter to Rachet Bomb to blow out somebody's board a turn earlier than they expected really just makes me giggle. I'm not for certain though if its just a cute trick or a blowout combo.
I saw Pat Chapin mention adding the one Eye of Ugin to search out his Wurmcoil Engines and randomly make his All is Dust's cheaper. I haven't gone as far as adding 4 Eldrazi Temple to further cheapen All is Dust yet, but it doesn't seem like it would hurt to do so.
I'd really like another colorless creature to replace the Sphinx so I can search it out and make it immune to All is Dust, but I can't find one that even compares to the power of Wurmcoil Engine. Maybe I should just go to 4 of them and 1 Sphinx?
Another possibility is to replace the Sphinx with Chimeric Coil. It also works ok with Steady Progress and survives a lot of creature kill. I still haven't decided if I like Coils yet however.
