Extended Faeries deck

Extended Faeries is a control deck centered around blue and black tribal Faeries. The core of most builds consists of Bitterblossom to produce a small army of faeries, along with strong creatures like Scion of Oona, Sower of Temptation, Mistbind Clique, Vendilion Clique, and Spellstutter Sprite. Faeries also uses a suite of strong counterspells, such as Cryptic Command, Broken Ambitions, Rune Snag</c>, and Remand</c> to keep enemy decks in check. Mutavault</c> and Faerie Conclave</c> are very popular manlands in faeries lists.

Although most decklists were blue/black, some decks splashed green for Tarmogoyf</c> or white for Path to Exile</c> and Esper Charm</c>. Some even used only blue (or the Ravnica "shocklands" e.g. Hallowed Fountain</c>) to take advantage of cards like Vedalken Shackles</c> that benefited from using islands.
