This is my own brew, sort've a take off of Cruel Control but it's not quite that. I would appreciate any suggestions even though I like the deck the way it is as it stands.Basically the idea is to keep the board clear until you find a Grave Titan or, better yet, Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker to finish things up, although you could just as easily win with Snapcaster Mage, Creeping Tar Pit, and burn. You don't need to play as aggressively as a regular burn deck, you mainly use your cards like Electrolyze to pick off their creatures but it is still flexible. The nice thing about the deck is that you only really need 2 Serum Visions because a lot of your spells like Electrolyze, Remand , and Cryptic Command replace themselves and you get some selective card draw off of Jace, Architect of Thought when you need it.Let me know what you guys think or if there is something you guys really think I should possibly tweak.
