The whole point of this deck is to use your opponent's deck against them, by taking control of their creatures.

CORE

Dragonlord Silumgar: This card is a great fit for this deck, as it steals opponent's creatures,can deal damage, and has deathtouch.

Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver: This card is great for its +1 and -X ability in this deck. I can use Griptide to take whatever creature I like.

Clever Impersonator: A new card that is quite powerful. Being able to copy any non-land card is useful, especially against artifact decks and stuff.

Fated Infatuation: Nothing like making copies of already stolen creatures.

Mercurial Pretender : A solid copy spell for Standard. If I see a bigger creature, I can always pull him back. Also dodges removal/boardwipes.

Worst Fears : Pulling this off is awesome, but again, too slow to run multiple copies.

Utility

Omenspeaker : A good defensive card. It can survive Drown in Sorrow, and can kill creatures when I use Polymorphist's Jest

Dissipate and Dissolve: Counterspells are what's expected of blue mages.

Divination and Read the Bones: Card draw to power the control engine.

Thoughtseize: Unbeliavably useful.

Jace, the Living Guildpact: A cool planeswalker with good abilities. Only a one-of though.

Please leave suggestions, this is a rough draft!!! +1 if you like it. It's not intended to be super competitive, just fun to use and amazing vs creature-heavy decks.

As the rotation period dawns, it's time to say good-bye to a few (actually a lot) key players of the deck.

-4x AEtherize -2x Cyclonic Rift -2x Devour Flesh -2x Syncopate -2x Grim Return -2x Time Ebb -3x Domestication -3x Soul Ransom -2x Lazav, Dimir Mastermind -2x AEtherling -2x Grim Return -2x Doom Blade -2x Watery Gravefoil

Hopefully, the new deck will be even more powerful than before, even without most of the mind control cards.

STAY TUNED FOR MORE MIND CONTROL
