Disclaimer: THIS IS MY FIRST CONTROL DECK, SO IT PROBABLY SUCKS. THEREFORE, ANY CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

Hello, and welcome to my deck! As one could probably assume from the title, this deck aims to stall until Sphinx of the Final Word hits the board. I'm not really sure how good of a win con it actually is, but it can't be countered, has evasion, and has hexproof, so that's something, right? Anyway, there are many cards in the deck that contribute to controlling the game for as long as possible, like obvious counterspells ( Void Shatter and Dissolve), removal ( Last Breath , Crush of Tentacles , Supreme Verdict, and Banishing Light), and, of course, card advantage (Sphinx's Revelation and Compulsive Research).

Once again, this is my first control deck, so I would greatly appreciate any help. (Also, I would be grateful for sideboard help :) ).

Thanks!
