Legacy Scepter deck

Scepter decks use <c>Isochron Scepter</c> with spells like <c>Orim's Chant</c> and <c>Counterspell</c> to control the opponent until they can win with a big creature. <c>Exalted Angel</c> is preferred because of its life-gain ability, as this deck frequently has the player at low life totals by the time it comes into play. <c>Eternal Dragon</c> and <c>Decree of Justice</c> are other viable finishers used in this deck. The countermagic and Chants are complemented by draw spells like <c>Brainstorm</c> and <c>Fact or Fiction</c>. Some versions use <c>Abeyance</c> (usually sideboard, sometimes main-deck) against control decks with a lot of instants. Mass destruction spells like <c>Wrath of God</c> are also common in scepter decks. <c>Meddling Mage</c> is a clear need for this deck type as well. <c>Meddling Mage</c> can control certain environments and allow for a win on control v/s control.
