Removal Suite/Counterspell Suite
2 Abrade a nice card that allows to remove creatures and artifacts.
2 Grasp of Darkness best removal spell for all the 4 toughness creatures currently in the format, namely Hazoret, Glorybringer, and any eternalized creature.
1 Harnessed Lightning removal that scales with the energy from our aether hubs, glimmer of genius, and recastings by gearhulk and dark dwellers.
1 Magma Spray best 1 cost removal for all the aggro decks currently in the meta.
1 To the Slaughter good for catching lone planeswalkers, gods, and fricking bristling hydras. Sometimes we even get delirium, so watch out for that.
2 Unlicensed Disintegration a catch all removal spell, for when nothing else works.
1 Lay Bare the Heart a good discard spell for when you need to see your opponents hand.
1 Disallow a hit all counterspell. Quite literally.
3 Supreme Will a counterspell with a dig effect attached to it, count me in.
2 Negate hits all the discard spells, planeswalkers and nasty enchantments we don't want to have to deal with.
Board Wipes
2 Sweltering Suns best early board wipe as its never dead in any matchup. Against control or combo you just cycle it away at the end of turn.
1
Hour of Devastation
an amazing board wipe!! kills basically everything including the gods, planeswalkers, and indestructible creatures too!! It even has Lord Bolas in the picture!!
Card Draw/Filtering
1 Anticipate a decent 2 mana filter card.
2 Glimmer of Genius best card draw spell for this deck.
3 Supreme Will a card filtering spell with a counter attached to it, count me in.
Wincons
2 Goblin Dark-Dwellers a nice body with menace that recasts stuff from the graveyard. Even if it gets removed its a 2-1.
2 Thing in the Ice
a really good card for stalling out aggro, sometimes we even get to bounce dark dwellers or gearhulks for extra value.
1 Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet mainboard lifegain really helps to stabilize some games, also VERY good against mono-red, and decent against zombies and other aggro decks.
3 Torrential Gearhulk an MvP of almost every standard control deck right now, these give you so much value, especially when you recast glimmer of genius.
1 Chandra, Flamecaller and emergency board wipe, can cycle a hand of dead cards for a new one, and a win con 6 damage at a time!!
2 Liliana, the Last Hope a very good card against aggro, slows them down quite a bit and allows you to catch up to them and start the 2 for 1 value train.
1 Nicol Bolas, God-Pharaoh if grixis control isn't playing at least one copy then they probably don't have him yet, or is a traitor to the God Pharaoh!
