A general Talrand EDH deck. Having not played mono-blue before I previously wanted to use Rayne, Academy Chancellor , but Talrand was better. I've settled on around 15 counter spells, lots of card draw and the only creatures in my deck are bombs. This is to go in conjunction with my Polymorphing strategy.

Synergies:

1. Isochron Scepter + Memory Lapse - In 1v1, this combo lets me counter a spell over and over meaning that the player opposite me will never draw more than the same card unless they're drawing more than one card/turn.
