This is my tuned Talrand deck, on the higher end of casual EDH.

The goal of the deck is to ramp and ideally bring out Talrand early, then control the board through counterspells and removal all the while building a small drake army for chip damage and chump blockers.

Once you've taken control or all other blue players are tapped out you cast Synthetic Destiny to cheat out all the big creatures from the deck and completely overwhelm opponents with card advantage and annihilator triggers, then chaining together nexus of fate extra turns.
