This is my take on bant walker/ bant control. So far I have taken this to two local FNM competitions and came first and second respectively. I'm looking to play these colors after rotation hits so I'm looking to improve the deck as much as possible. So tell me what you think?

The main win condition of the deck is Elspeth, Sun's Champion however we have alternative win cons with AEtherling who can become an unblockable beat stick and Kiora, the Crashing Wave who's ultimate is honestly no joke.

You maybe thinking why I run Bant over, Esper or even American control. Well the simple answer is Bant, to me anyway can be more aggressive with the use of Sphinx's Revelation due to splashing green we have access to some of, if not the best ramp in the game in Courser of Kruphix + Sylvan Caryatid Not to mention we have access to some great instant speed spells and monsters with Advent of the Wurm + Voice of Resurgence .

To me this deck is extremely underrated compared to what's being played (in my area anyway). And it's a nice change from seeing the normal Esper Control and Jund Monsters deck at my locals. I just love the aspect of how fast I can set up and keep a good control of the game state. I'm mainly trying to decide my sideboard and any help would be greatly appreciated.
