I haven't been a huge fan of Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver only because she doesn't immediately impact the board. My opponent could just wait a few turns for her to mill something decent and then kill her before I ever have a chance to use it with the -x. I might do some testing with it in the sideboard though, for use against something like temur aggro, or G/R monsters.

TOTALLY PLAY Despise !!!! First of all, it's AMAZING! It's pretty much Thoughtseize execpt you don't pay life! Actually, maybe you should play Thoughtseize ....

Resolute Archangel is a much needed 1-of, for its amazing ability to reset your life. Of course you can still die after, but this will help a ton against aggro and midrange decks - so basically all of standard.

Prognostic Sphinx is also amazing. It can't be burned, and can gain hexproof if you choose to let a first burn spell hit it, at least the second wont kill it.

Apart from those, I really think you need scry lands.

Them and Prog. Sphinx. will provide some much needed topdeck manipulation. 3-4 of each temple I think would really help you out a lot.

Could you check out my Esper build too? The Rogue Shard of Tarkir

+1, and good luck to you. May your improved topdecks be ever in your favor!

Hmm. Totally think you should up to a full playset of Dig Through Time too. Its just too good.

I was thinking about it, but I didn't want to put too much stress on my graveyard. I'll have to test it out with the full set though, thanks.

Even if you can't delve it all the way down to every time, it is an amazing card. The best draw spell in Standard for sure.

I was thinking you should play maybe some mill cards so you can get out Dig Through Time for maybe 1UU. Maybe something like Mind Sculpt would be good, but that's just for the opponent. You'll probably think of something. You always do :P

BTW, can anyone tell me a card I should play in my artifact deck? I have $50 and I don't know if I should buy a Mox Opal or save up...
