Extended Tezzerator deck

The Tezzerator deck is a control, or rather "lockdown" deck. The deck has been set up to deal with all the popular decks that appear a lot in the Pro Tour. It was best designed and played by Kenny Öberg as he made his way to the Top 8 in 2008 during Pro Tour Berlin.
==Deck Makeup==
The entire deck is based on <c>Trinket Mage</c> and <c>Tezzeret the Seeker</c> to search for the weapon to best go against the opponent. The card drawing in the deck is based on <c>Thirst for Knowledge</c>.
<c>Chrome Mox</c> serves as acceleration.
One of the key cards in this deck is <c>Chalice of the Void</c> using it to call on 0,1,2, or 3 can lock down most cards on every deck. Another card that shines is <c>Engineered Explosives</c> since most creatures in this format have similar mana cost this card simply says: destroy all creatures your opponent play for the past few turns.
<c>Pyrite Spellbomb</c> and <c>Aether Spellbomb</c> is a card that solves one creature, in the early stage this is good to stop creature-combo deck and/or slow down aggressive decks using creatures to attack their opponent.
<c>Ensnaring Bridge</c> is there to deal with decks that attack you with creatures. Even more, the deck uses <c>Vedalken Shackles</c> to reverse the situation.
<c>Trinisphere</c> is a card used to slow down the tempo. This card locks down both spell-based and creature-based decks.
<c>Pithing Needle</c> and <c>Venser, Shaper Savant</c> is just a card that solves everything. One prevents from the early stage and the other stop as the game goes on.
<c>Vendilion Clique</c> is a card that slows down an opponent depending on what type of deck one's opponent is playing. It also can be an attacker and beat down opponents.
For counter spells, the signature of the blue mana-base deck the deck offer <c>Spell Snare</c>, <c>Stifle</c>, and <c>Cryptic Command</c>.
The lands the deck use are <c>Academy Ruins</c>, <c>Breeding Pool</c>, <c>Flooded Strand</c>, <c>Great Furnace</c>, <c>Miren, the Moaning Well</c>, <c>Polluted Delta</c>, <c>Riptide Laboratory</c>, <c>Steam Vents</c>, and <c>Island</c> only Academy Ruins provide ability to recycle artifacts. The rest of the lands are just there to smoothen mana.
The sideboard mainly focuses on dealing with creatures as we saw <c>Firespout</c>, <c>Stifle</c>, and <c>Threads of Disloyalty</c>. It has 1 <c>Tormod's Crypt</c> to deal with the Dredge deck to deal with the graveyard-base deck. <c>Blood Moon</c> is there to drive every player crazy. Imagine all you have is red mana while not playing a red deck. Lastly <c>Ancient Grudge</c> is there for artifacts, for sure but there might be a possibility that this can be used in mirror match.
