Since the early days of Magic playing at the kitchen table, I was always more into playing control. Fast forward, I happen to be working in corporate compliance, so I guess that playing a deck that is all about rules, controls and policing the table to keep everything in check is somewhat fitting.

I appreciate that it is not the kind of deck that brings much excitement to the table, but its goal is to preventing degenerate things to happen and enforcing "fair Magic".

The main win condition is to get rid of my library and then trigger Thassa's Oracle or Jace, Wielder of Mysteries or Laboratory Maniac. The simplest way to remove my library is Thought Lash, otherwise the 2 card combo Grindstone + Painter's Servant , or a 3 card combo to generate infinite mana with Grim Monolith + Power Artifact and use it to cast Braingeyser or Stroke of Genius on myself. If I am left in a 1v1 situation, the two combos can be also used to mill the opponent to defeat.
