Here is the completed version of my very first deck ever constructed. It is quite simple and to the point really, basic control utilizing flying, cipher and extort. Keep in mind this is a really budget deck being new to the game I really do not have much invested into it. However I am planning on adding cards such as one of the many Jaces, Desecration Demons, Thoughtseize to replace duress, and Heroes Downfall for Doom Blades, it is all just a matter of time and money, so please if you are to suggest cards keep that in mind. Do not suggest cards such as those, i'm mainly looking for small minor fixes. Scratch that, you can suggest whatever you want, all help is appreciated after all!

One more thing... do not suggest something along the lines of "hey, maybe add a bunch of mind grinds and just turn it into mill". Absolutely not. I've already considered mill and I do not like it. :)However mill can be a secondary win condition for me once I get Jace.
