When the new Dominaria set came out, I came across Jaya Ballard and was very curious about the possibilities of her. It wasn’t until I played against a home brewed deck that showed me her capabilities of how messed up she could be in control. Her “Ultimate” can let you cast instants or sorceries from your hand twice. Or if you messed up and wasted your last counter on something too early in the game, you’re able to recover it and save yourself.

I’m still on the fence about Censor. I’m not sure if I should have more or have them in it at all. It’s very situational and if you missed your opportunity, it’s now a draw for 1 Blue.

The deck is still in the making, so PLEASE feel free to help out.
