Mono-white trick of the day:
Tap all your lands for mana, using CatA to bounce all your plains to your hand. Use two remaining mana to cast Balance, forcing your opponent to sacrifice down to zero lands.

The Ghostly Prison is just there for "Ha ha, you can't attack me now" sake.

They can play more lands after they play Balance and once they do THEN they'll be able to get attacks in on you

In order to not be completely boned by all the plains you are sweeping to your hands, I'd recommend Aphetto Alchemist+Illusionist's Bracers along with Gustha's Scepter.

Wait, scratch that. Instead of relying on an infinite combo, you can do Vedalken Orrery (or something that gives creature spells flash) and WormFang Behemoth in response to Balance.
This optimizes the play because it takes away each opponent's hand AND lands, and knocks them down to one creature UNLESS someone already has none, at which point you get your hand back. Since Balance has to completely resolve before any triggers can take place for any of its parts, your hand is safe.

Okay fine, don't edit my post.

Instead of Orrery, you can Use Scout's Warning or Winding Canyons.

Scratch Canyons, as it is a land.
