Kill control with Master as a wincon. You can also just smash their face with the Demon or the keyrune, or the Plate Mail. Whatever floats your boat.

Non budget version would obviously use Thoughtseize instead of Duress. You'd probably throw the Duress's in the sideboard though, because haveing a 4 of of Thoughtseize and a 4 of of Duress would just be a nightmare for the control mirror.
