Notes

*need to find a good way to
Fit villainous wealth -or- torment of hailfire in!

I want to take it in landfall, mill, discard direction. :)
Medium stax, Minor stasis combo, landfall combo, etc... Guessing at an "8"

Stats 2021.11 :
9 ways to tap down Archelos
9 ways to draw additional cards
~14 ramp cards, depending on how you define it

ideas from Commander's quarters, https://archidekt.com/decks/974896#Turtle_Man_Lands, https://www.moxfield.com/decks/5jstTPa5XUy8CY2eYLJDbA,
https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/11-06-15-chronatog-stasis/,
and various other places
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xNWa1JEKrc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJmaT5U-XFU
etc

probably needs more countermagic as of 1/10 version

Combos present in the deck:
Quirion Ranger + Ashaya = infinite landfalls
Chronatog + Stasis = lock + mill (provided archelos remains tapped down)
Mirrorpool + Splendid Reclamation + Sac lands = https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitiveEDH/comments/jpml3s/comment/gbkv4o5/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

compost would be funny with the mill effects, but that's probably a different deck
