U/W/R Control

Standard*

DasRuff


Sideboard


Type II control deck. More permission based to take advantage of Fated Retribution. It's entirely possible that the 2 Divinations could be an Azorius Charm and 27th land. I do like Divination as a way to continue hitting land drops (instead of running 27 lands) and as an effective way to fight Thoughtseize. No AEtherling main because the deck is already heavy on virtual 7-drops (2 Fated Retribution and 4 Sphinx's Rev) and it doesn't help you get back on board if you are already behind, a similar problem shared by Assemble the Legion. Assemble the Legion is strong against Mono-Black, and Stormbreath Dragon x4 out of the sideboard helps fight other UW-based control, so no need for AEtherling anywhere. Also, Counterflux can act as a trump card against control. Domestication is in the board due to the current popularity of Brimaz and Courser of Kruphix, both very good targets. In theory, this build should have strong matchups against Mono-Black, Mono-Blue, U/W Control, and G/R Monsters.
