Esper Battle of Witts deck. Just basically a bunch of tutors and stall to get Battle of Witts out and if you somehow manage to bring the deck under 200 cards there is Psychic Spiral to put all your graveyard back in to your deck. There is a mill element as an alternate win condition using Nephalia Drownyard and Jace, Memory Adept. If that doesn't work you can always just pound there face in with a huge Entreat the Angels. Suggestions for the sideboard are necessary especially against aggro. I'm not really worried about the mirror....or mill.
