So the theme of this deck is Nicol Bolas. He's been a favorite of mine for a long time and I really wanted to make a deck with him since I like playing the mechanics he works with. I also tend to like grixis colored decks and have been working with 3 color decks a lot. The goal is control. Lots of powerful effects. With that, I need mana, so we have what I could find for mana ramp in grixis. It's not perfect, but it'll do until I find some better options. I also have some early game in the form of a couple creatures, some hand control, cheap counterspell and some draw/scry spells. After I've started setting up my board state, I should have enough mana for some of my deck to shine with Gonti, Lord of Luxury , Hostage Taker and The Scarab God . I just had some passion and kind of threw this together. I have some alternate ideas I may try once I have my questions responded to by a magic judge that could be really good synergy. Please give me some advice or comments on this deck, as I'm looking to improve it as much as I can. Thanks!
