This deck was made as the new and improved control deck without sphinxes, d-spheres and aetherlings. It might not be as good but this is my first control deck so what the heck. I'm open to any and all suggestions.
Now for the Deck List
How I win: I play either Brimaz, King of Oreskos, Elspeth, Sun's Champion, Wingmate Roc, or Chasm Skulker and kill them with direct damage.
Stubborn Denial - This card is one of my favorite cards. Even though this deck doesn't have any creatures with power 4 or greater this protects you from that t1 thoughtseize or that all out attack with that pump to get the last damage though when they are tapped out. Can be sided boarded out for better straight-up counter
My next favorite counterspell
Dissolve
- Great counter spell because it comes with a scry, nothing more nothing less gets the job done with a little present that can accelerate you to a victory.
Another simmilar card is Dissipate - It gets the job done but completely removes the card from the game which is great against Abzan Midrange or Sultai Delver ot just anything with delve.
My final counterspell is Cancel - Nothing special just a generic counterspell but felt the deck needed more.
Creature Removal is another big part of this deck and Banishing Light does the trick as well as gets rid of everything they have except for their lands (come on wizards what happened to land destruction)
End Hostilities
also works great against creature heavy decks as they tend to swarm you with creatures(why would anyone want to do that with a creature deck maybe im going crazy) This is the card I'm not so sure about because I usually let nothing hit the table.
Voyage's End
- this card is used to return a creature i accidentally let through my defenses before I can begin to play my counter spells.
Tiagam's Scheming, Treasure Cruise, Dig Through Time and Divination are what gets me my counterspells and win-cons faster
