Since I wanted to play Disciple of the Ring, I was looking for some replacements of Dig Through Time. Those cards just don't go well together (also helps Jace, Telepath Unbound). Demonic Pact gives insane card advantage and Anticipate helps filtering and fuels Disciple of the Ring very well.

Ob Nixilis Reignited gives us more card draw or creature removal and can be a finisher with his ultimate.

With Anticipate and Jace, Telepath Unbound I figured 6 bounce spells should be enough - so far I didn't die to Demonic Pact yet. Just be warned, in the control matchup it's very possible that Silumgar's Command has no legal target for any of the other modes, which is why I only have 1 copy in the deck. Displacement Wave can bounce tokens and flipped planeswalkers really cheap and for 6CC Demonic Pact.

The manabase of UB Control is phenomenal. Skyline Cascade is amazing against aggro and midrange, Mortuary Mire gives us back a dead Jace, Vryn's Prodigy   or occasionally a Disciple of the Ring and Blighted Fen is for cards like Dragonlord Ojutai or Silumgar, the Drifting Death.

Would love to hear your thoughts about the deck. Also, I don't have a sideboard yet, suggestions are very welcome.
