Patron Wizard is a very nice wizard card that lets you tap any wizard in play to counter a spell unless its controller pays one. This card can singlehandedly allow you to win a game, and I couldn't go without having four of them in my blue deck.
The implications of this card are extraordinary, as one can clearly see that as long as you have more wizards than your opponent has lands, they will not be able to put anything into play. Now one may ask if you can stack the ability, and the answer is yes. According to the rulebook, a player has time to use Patron Wizard's ability on the stack after the last ability resolved to continue forcing your opponent to pay mana.
Patron Wizard is best paired with cheap wizards that can come out every turn, some include:
Nameless One: This card is very nice because after six turns of your opponent not playing anything, this can come out as a very powerful creature and directly sink a very hard hit into your opponent.
Clone: This card is very versatile because it could come into play as another Patron Wizard for security, or a nameless one for power, or possibly some legendary removal later game, even if said legend had protection or shroud.
Arcane Laboratory: This is a very excellent card in any control deck because of its ability to shut down your opponent's spells and it can give your creatures a chance to attack if you have a counterspell in your hand.
Overall, Patron Wizard is a very powerful card, and if left unchecked, one of your next spells will be your last.
I was able to buy these cards inexpensively on a website called http://www.mtgfanatic.com/ and benefited greatly from discounts and rewards programs.
