Esper Control deck that I hope to have before it goes out of standard. I have most of the cards, it's just the pricier ones (Sphinx's Revelation, Blood Baron of Vizkopa, most of the shock lands) that I don't have (I have 1 Sphinx's Revelation right now, though).

I know the Planeswalkers are a bit different from the normal control setup (4x Jace, Architect of Thought, 2/3 Elspeth, Sun's Champion) but I've found that Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver adds a bit more pressure against Aggro players since it's a turn 3 Planeswalker that can take and use their creatures, and Jace, Memory Adept is just a good card to have since it also adds a lot of pressure to your opponent, since they need to find an answer in about 5 turns or less depending on when you get it out. It's a cheap way to win, but hey, a wins a win. ;)
