"Across the expense of time and space, certain things were required to sustain balance. Through the abilities of Vast, any who believed against this ideal were forced to contend with an arsenal of preventative tactics, forcing them to travel across vast expenses of the universe simply to remember who they were after fighting the forces of Vast."
Vast is an FG based on CC, making him amazing OTK fodder. However, he runs more spells than permanents, making him extremely deadly in the most Octanely sense. Taking down as many early towers as possible can give you a distinct early advantage, so abuse it to its fullest extent. If he can't congeal or lance, then he loses tons of CC even if he still has rewind and precog (although those are annoying enough in their own right). He runs no time towers, despite running loads of time cards.
Here is the deadly deck of Vast.

After this, he plays into Fate Eggs and Ice Lance for damage. He can use Inundate well with only 4 creatures in his entire deck. Once all of yours are congealed/rewinded, he will start attacking you with Lance. Before that, he can also use Lance as CC.
He can kill you in ~6 lances and an egg, presuming lances are full powered and the egg isn't something silly like retrovirus.
If I really wanted to buff this deck, I'd add purify, but I don't think it needs something so annoying as that.
I also think the name sounds a little too much like a gravity god, but I can't think of anything better.
Any thoughts on this?
