How to Keep an Idiot Busy.

Description of deck by it's Brian David-Marshall (quoted):
One of my favorite all time decks was a blue-white-green deck called “How to Keep an Idiot Busy” which was first built when Feldon's Cane was unrestricted. It relied on four copies of the Cane to recycle the deck many times over, and included reset buttons like Nevinyrral's Disk and fun cards like Jester's Cap. When Gaea's Blessing was printed, Feldon's Cane was replaced with the Blessing; as added protection against having your Blessings countered the deck played Pursuit of Knowledge. Pursuit has what is known as a "replacement effect" for drawing cards. This means that anytime you would draw a card you could use the effect of Pursuit of Knowledge instead—another means of eventually decking your opponent. The deck actually made Top 8 at a major tournament but it is by no means recommended as an actual good deck!
