It's a truism that "counters are nerfed in Standard". So what do I want to do? Build a permission deck. But with a twist. I want to use all those expensive, "unplayable" counters like Counterlash and Plasm Capture that give me nice goodies in return. I deny my opponent everything, while reaping the rewards in the shape of cards, extra mana and free spells. No idea if it'll work.

Incidentally, apart from two cheap cards I need to buy, everything here I already own, so there is some wonkiness - eg I own no UG rare duals whatsoever.
