The ultimate control deck guaranteed to have everyone at the table hating you, meet Dragonlord Silumgar and his army of clones and controls.

During the beginning of the game, you will want to play quiet. Just play non-threatening draw spells like Sign in Blood or Ancient Craving, or creatures that dig through a bit of your deck, while being good blockers, like Augury Owl , Sage Owl , Trinket Mage, and Raven Familiar . These cards will help you find the "stuff".

Once you have the "stuff", it's go time. Start bringing out the threatening cards like Consecrated Sphinx , Frost Titan, and Grave Titan. This deck also has a lot of threatining Demons that can easily win the game by themselves if left unattended. This is sure to draw attention, but that's why you've been drawing and digging! Spells that try to kill your fatties will simply be countered by cards such as Counterspell, Cryptic Command, Silumgar's Command , and more! The funniest thing is, you aren't going to be countering your opponent's good stuff. Hell no, use cards like Desertion and Commandeer to steal them before they even come in, then you can clone your opponent's creatures with Clone, Sakashima the Impostor, Phyrexian Metamorph, and Cryptoplasm, and then gain control of the copied creature with Sower of Temptation, Control Magic, and the mighty Dragonlord Silumgar himself, or just kill the creature with Doom Blade or Evil Twin. Not even creatures with hexproof and shroud are safe, as Arcane Lighthouse and Glaring Spotlight allow you to steal absolutely anything your opponents may place down. Finding these cards is no problem with Demonic Tutor, Vampiric Tutor, and Sidisi, Undead Vizier!

This deck can start off slow at first due to low ramp, but cards such as Sol Ring, Mana Vault, and Mana Crypt can give you the mana you need to start drawing, tutoring, and dominating. Happy stealing!

C-C-C-C-Combo Breakers

Leyline of Anticipation + Sidisi, Undead Vizier to sac a creature you control but owned by an opponent if you would lose control of it at instant speed, with a tutor on the side.

Deadeye Navigator + Dragonlord Silumgar + sac outlet for stealing enemy creatures, sacrificing them, then flickering Silumgar to steal another and repeat the process

Blightsteel Colossus + Bribery or Felidar Sovereign in an enemy deck to win the game. What? That's a combo!

Clever Impersonator + Sword of Feast and Famine for two instances of untapping your lands. You can play instants or flashies after your lands untap once before they untap again. You also get DOUBLE protecion from black, so if an opponent casts Damnation...it still dies...

Chimney Imp + Rod of Ruin for maximum disrespect.
