BlurrySC Thanks for the +1, And i have a few reason to run more than one Urborgs actually.
-- My deck has a lot of 3 drops that require either double Black or double Blue.
--Allows you to tap fetch lands for black mana, also makes Island, Island and Urborg the best opening mana combo.
--I did once tap Urborg for mana, floating it i then played my other Urborg moving the old one to my graveyard then used it to delve Dig Through Time
-- I already had 2
In playing the deck it hasnt been an issue yet with me drawing both, but i was hesitant to play more than one at first

Have you tried adding Empty the Pits that way you can use all that removal for a awesome finish.

@kthulurising I originally had that in mind when i was first making the deck but have since forgotten about it, ill have to try it out.

This deck's not Cruel Control, since your finisher isn't Cruel Ultimatum.

Using Cruel Control in the more literal sense of control that is cruel.

Cruel Control is defined as an archetype of Grixis control decks where the finisher is Cruel Ultimatum. It's difficult to find and evaluate/give suggestions to Cruel Control decks when the hub is saturated with non-Cruel Control decks. Thanks for understanding.

This deck isn't Cruel Control, no matter how cruel it is or how not fun it is to play against. Cruel Control is Modern-legal UBR control that has a finisher of Cruel Ultimatum. Nice to see control decks Post-rotation.

How do you like the deck with the red? I'm currently in the process of building a Grixis mana base in preparation for the next set, but as it is, do you like Thoughtseize? You mentioned in an early update that it was underwhelming, do you still feel that way?

Love the Red, i have had no Issues getting Red mana at all, it needs some tweaking, but its fairly solid at the moment. Keranos, God of Storms is still one of the best win cons and Storm Breezy does work.
As for Thoughtseize, its still lame, i can't play it on turn 1 with any consistency and its still the most underwhelming card in the deck, Once you get to three colors you might want to consider cutting it, maybe i should add a few more red sources and just run Lightning Strike. But i can't take it outa the deck cause its fucking 88$ worth of Thoughtseize...

Well you can still take it out if you want, lol, and just trade it for fetch lands or something. It's still a card in high demand

I'm curious why you are running 2 Urborgs. Your deck is only 2 colors so there isn't that much mana fixing needed, especially in black so there are times when it will become just a dead card. Other than that, looks good +1
