A cruel control deck that's sure to keep the field clear!This is a brand new lineup that I have yet to play test. Just took a splash of blue out, and it's looking a lot more solid on the control end now.

Edit

So this deck was finally a decent competitor at FNM last week. I went 2-1 against a gruul and an orzhov, I went 1-2 with a second gruul beatdown, and finally went 0-2 against a solid blue devotion counter deck.

I've added the Nightveil Specter to the Mainboard, and put Chromatic Lanterns in the Sideboard to help cast some of the spells he exiles. I've added 3 Erebos to replace the Underworld Connections. The reason behind this is to prevent opponents gaining life, having another possible creature out, Erebos is Indestructible, and if I have a Nykthos and/or a Whip out it's easy to draw multiple cards every turn.
