This is similar to http://www.mtgcombos.com/view.php?fid=2&tid=38317
but, you may play it mono white

you can lock your opponents ability to cast spells by setting the additional cost of sacrificing a land type they do not have.

Activated abilities with mana symbols can be locked, too. Either set to the proper color word or land type they do not have.

Finally you may alter the basic land type of their lands to provide mana which is not useful.


Doesn't work on activated abilities which do not require coloured mana costs (just tapping...).

Since Mind Bend can only change color WORDS, not mana symbols, this does nothing if they are not actually playing black, since Drought counts the black mana in the costs to determine its additional cost.

If they are actually playing black though, they are going to have a heck of a time doing anything.

drought has been errated to actually use the words black mana rather then the symbol, only symbols on it now are the WW for the upkeep. this works because of that change

Well, I stand corrected, but that is the most hair-brained thing I've seen yet for errata. Blame hybrid and phyrexian mana, I guess. Still black without being the classic skull symbol.
