Alright, I've messed with this deck a lot, and intend to take it to FNM soon. Phantasmal Image is an incredibly versatile card, working best with Lord of the Unreal (to make a hexproof illusion that makes all other illusions hexproof), and Sun Titan (to pull all other Phantasmal Images out of the graveyard as Sun Titans). Ponder and Gitaxian Probe help me know what's coming from both my deck and my opponents, so I have a better idea of when to use my counters. They also let me draw, which keeps the cards I need coming. Oblivion Ring is wonderful, and is to take care of anything problematic that gets past my counters. It can also be pulled out of the graveyard and reassigned with a Sun Titan. Timely Reinforcements helps to even the odds against pure aggro decks, and if nothing else buy me time. Celestial Purge is rather obvious, but I've been playing a lot of Vampire decks lately and this should help. Nihil Spellbomb cripples decks that draw heavily from the graveyard. Lastly, any advice is greatly appreciated.

Tournament Record So Far: Did well at FNM. Three wins,one loss in the swiss tourney, and got rushed by a grave titan deck in the finals round
