Diabolic Tutor was reprinted in M14, and that means we now have access to 16 Battle of Wits! The above list is a competitively aimed, 250 card Esper control shell.

Please comment and pick apart the list as much as physically possible. Don't forget to not only recommend cards, but which cards should be swapped for them. As usual, do not hesitate to question seemingly stupid card choices or the meaning of life.
