Deck Title:Stick Prison
Colors:u/w
By: Aaron Amendolia (252 standard if that's not a bum # :) )

Notes: I had been thinking about using humility (seeing as it's the only
rare I get in tempest packs) in some sort of lock deck since I first saw
the card. The posting of the Kibler Prison in the ptqla decks section of
the dojo, convinced me it may be a viable deck. It's extremely slow on
the kill but, interesting to play. The rulings concerning hum. and the
chim. sphere are flakey but they hold the deck up for now damage wise.
Email comments or play results or your deck ideas (or tunings) to me if
