This is my take on Grixis control with bolas coming in the next set alongside torment of hailfire and the new gods there is a ton of potential to do well. Here are all my choices for the deck and why i chose them, i hope you like my deck and remember to +1 if you do, thanks so much for giving it a look!
-Harnessed Lightning is a great spell for many reasons, it gives us energy, lets us decide how much energy we use to kill a dude, lets us mana fix more with our aether hubs, and reliably can kill most creatures in the format granted we have the energy, but with 2 copies of it alongside glimmer an aether hub that should be very manageable.
-Supreme Will is a super rad card, its a good counter spell from early to mid game or its a good card advantage/ selection tool, overall just a good card.
Negate for cheap counterplay on instants sorcery's planeswalkers etc
Unlicensed Disintegration is a great card even just as a vanilla kill spell but if we have a Gearhulk on board it's also gonna deal three to our opponent or a planeswalker they control which is fantastic.
Glimmer of genius is just great for card advantage, it lets us not only draw but also fix what we want to draw.
Disallow is just amazing as a counterspell, it can hit pretty much everything and that's why we run it.
-Censor is a very advantageous card in the early game and in the late game its a one mana draw a card at instant speed which is not bad at all the card is just really good so we run 3 copies it also has awesome synergy with The Locust god because then it's essentially "1u, draw a card, then you get a a 1/1 insect token with haste.
-Cut/Ribbons is insane in our deck because first its two mana to remove most viable creatures in the meta in the early game and late game it's just straight up a finisher that drains them for a ton.
Fatal Push is just awesome for removing little dudes in the early game not to mention it hits man lands too.
Hieroglyphic illumination is just for card advantage and you can cycle it in a pinch, its had good results in testing and is worth a copy.
-Pull from Tomorrow is just an amazing card it isnt sphinxs rev but tbh it totally is, the card draw advantage is just too huge to not run this not to mention the absolute insane amount of insects you can make off of the locust good with a good pull.
-Sweltering suns is good in here as it can wipe the board against opponents looking to go wide and we dont want too many bontu's last reckoning; the card is amazing but the downside can be bad sometimes.
-Bontus Last Reckoning is just a powerhouse of a board wipe, 3 mana destroy all creatures is usually all that matters as long as you are playing the card right the downside is kinda negligible.
-Nicol Bolas, God-Pharaoh should be a self explanatory choice, he's one of the biggest reasons i even made this deck in the first place, everything he does is just incredible and once he's resolved he can end the game very fast.
-Torrential Gearhulk is just probably the best card printed for control decks in a very long time its not only a flash finsher but recurs any of our instants letting us counter something when we dont have a counter in hand or kill something or draw some cards, the card is just incredibly strong and everyone knows it by now, auto include in nearly any control deck.
-Torment of hailfire is one of the best cards in all of standard in my opinion when i saw this card get spoiled i almost squealed like a little school girl, this card is everything that defines Nicol Bolas, its seemingly gives our opponent choices but in reality is only Harming them no matter what they choose this card is incredible, it is so devastatingly oppressive that most of the time upon resolving in this deck, it WILL just win you the game.
