Ignoring budget, what recommendations do you have?

An Abzan Control deck with emphasis on locking down your opponent.

Mainboard

Removal and Control

Anguished Unmaking- Get rid of those pesky everything else

Ghostly Prison- For protecting yourself

Go for the Throat- Get rid of pesky creatures

Lingering Souls- For flying to the face

Murderous Cut- Potential 1 mana murder

Path to Exile- Get rid of pesky creatures that also happen to be Indestructible or an Artifact

Surgical Extraction- Ruin their plans in general

Creatures

Courser of Kruphix- Who doesn't like more land and gaining life?

Scavenging Ooze - Ruin their graveyard with the option of gaining life and getting bigger

Siege Rhino- A nice, big body for blocking and good ETB effects

Tidehollow Sculler- Disrupt their hand and get a body on the field early

Vampire Nighthawk - Aggressive attacker and a deterrent

Warden of the First Tree - Potential 3/3 on turn two, an 8/8 Lifelink Trampler later

Sideboard

I'll be honest, not sure about this sideboard

Dragonlord Dromoka- Nice big body along with protection on your turn

Elspeth, Sun's Champion- For going wide

Kataki, War's Wage- Punishment for Artifact decks

Murderous Cut- Potential 1 mana murder

Ruinous Path - Removal for things instants can't hit

Scavenging Ooze - More of a good card

Sorin, Solemn Visitor- For making those 1/1's very mean and gaining life

Surgical Extraction- More ruining of their plans

Zealous Persecution- For the extra oomf in a game winning swing

This is my first Modern deck I built completely from scratch so if you have any improvements that should be made to the deck, let me know!

If you like the deck, be sure to +1!
