U/B draw-go control using my own personal swarm of Pack Rat s as a kill condition. Empty the Pits is back-up inevitability.

Plenty of counters and removal with a couple Mystical Teachings to find certain things. Geth's Verdict hits hexproof guys or a resolved Emrakul. Inspiration and Think Twice for card draw and advantage.Standard 3/3 split of hand disruption (budget versions) and Redirect as my one-of spicy tech to try out.

Advice and criticism very welcome, especially for the sideboard!
