This deck is a control deck that plays like a ramp deck. You have Sarkhan Unbroken and Hedron Archive to ramp up to Ugin, or even an awaken spell (Ruinous Path). Otherwise, it is simply cruel control: bouncing Demonic Pact, casting it, and gaining a ton of life and card-advantage. Brutal Expulsion is a nice bouncer, plus it takes care of stuff. Jaddi Offshoot is similar to an Arashin Cleric, but in green: it blocks, and gains you life, which is nice for a control environment. The Silumgars are good control finishers, and are mainly in here for Sarkhan's ultimate. This deck's focus is to stall the game, play Demonic Pacts, and slapping Ugins on the battlefield with ease.

Inspired from Reid Duke's Esper Control and Ali Aintrazi's Simic Part the Waterveil build.
