A fairly standard Esper Control shell, with the exception of the Take Inventories I'm testing. Gisela is a great creature worth playing on her own, and Bruna can reanimate Gisela after her inevitable death. (Or Jace, if you already have Gisela.) However, Bruna is too expensive to play a lot of herself. The planeswalkers are just great value, and Sorin and Ob help you find Bruna faster. And if you Meld Brisela, you basically just win. Ob Nixilis is the only good card I can think of that answers her well, and she can easily lock entire decks out of the game.
