Notes
 
GU Wizards is a mid-range deck that stalls the opponent with superior tempo for the first 5-7 turns with bouncing, tapping, flash, and (on turns 5-7) sizable creatures. It then finishes with Willbreaker, Docent of Perfection, Westvale Abbey (transformed) or Decimator of the Provinces, though occasionally Woodland Bellower or Outland Colossus or good enough to close it out.

This deck was initially inspired by a UG tempo deck from hakeem928, but  I changed it from a pure tempo deck over time, to the mid-range deck it is now. The name UG Wizards is inspired partly by a few Wizards, but mostly because it has lots of tricks up it's sleeve.

This deck may seem unfocused at first glance but the wide variety of cards serves two purposes:

1) Opponent can't plan well what's coming from my untapped mana.

2) There are many subtle synergies. Most obvious are the synergies with Docent of Perfection (quite a few Wizards) and Willbreaker (lots of ways to target a creature).

Some cards are enablers for other cards, such as Whirler Rogue which can help Willbreaker or to transform Westvale Abbey.
