The goal is to keep my opponent's hand empty of key cards so I can drop in my winning creatures.

WIN-CON

Distended Mindbender and Mindwrack Demon are the closers. Either one can come out Turn 4.

Filigree Familiar is a great card to hit delirium, and Dead Weight, as a one-drop, also helps to reach delirium. I can sacrifice the Familiar, draw a card, and bring in the Mindbender. I like that set up.

THE DISCARD ROUTE:

Turn 1 with Harsh Scrutiny, I get to scry 1 and I can fix early; I really like that scrying ability. Plus, the intelligence of looking at my opponent's hand so early. Turn 2 Transgress the Mind to keep them off balance. Turn 3, I could use Pick the Brain , but I would rather repeat with either Harsh Scrutiny or Transgress the Mind. Turn 4, I go into my creatures, but I also gave Witness the End . I like that curve.

THE CREATURE REMOVAL ROUTE:

A slower play is Turn 1 with Dead Weight. Let them put out a creature and remove it. Turn 2, take out the next one with Grasp of Darkness. If possible, Turn 3 can continue with To the Slaughter, but better is to hit them with another Dead Weight or Grasp of Darkness.

A typical hand is a mix of those cards up front. The only creature I really like up front is Filigree Familiar. If I get to kill it, I hit delirium pretty fast, and then Pick the Brain becomes an excellent 3-drop.

That's the deck so far. I still need to work on the side board. Trying to figure out how to deal with aggro decks. My only answers right now are Biting Rain and Warping Wail. Those cards are pretty solid. I'm still waiting for more cards from the new set.
