Good old-fashioned Azorius Control

Win cons

Sweeping and attacking with a few high evasive creatures with help of Teferi, Time Raveler and counters for protection

• Mobilized District WAR gave us a manland that is cheaper with walkers out leaving mana for counters.
• Gideon Blackblade inert high evasion leaves mana during attacking for counters

Key Synergies

Wincon: Gideon Blackblade + Mobilized District + Teferi, Time Raveler can use Counters if you dont have Teferi, Time Raveler out

Manland: Mobilized District + Narset, Parter of Veils + Teferi, Hero of Dominaria + Teferi, Time Raveler + Gideon Blackblade Means you can mobilize for free

Sorcerous Spyglass + Teferi, Time Raveler keep looking at their hand and picking a card to negate its ability

Deputy of Detention + Teferi, Time Raveler bounce spot removal especially for tokens could use Augur of Bolas as well

Ixalan's Binding + Teferi, Time Raveler + Time Wipe bounce to change target of bind

Deputy of Detention + Time Wipe to reuse could use Augur of Bolas as well
