Really like the approach here, +1 from me! Ever thought of Tainted AEther to replace Lethal Vapors?

Sol Ring bro....every EDH deck needs Sol Ring and Sensei's Divining Top . Also, if you want to draw cards, play Kami of the Crescent Moon Howling Mine Staff of Nin . And since you're Esper, Sphinx's Revelation

Teferi's Puzzle Box and Notion Thief . They put their whole hand at bottom, draw 1 card, and you draw the rest!

i don't think you read the description , i usually play this deck 1v1 thanks for your suggestions, anyway the cards you suggested me would be a better fit in a Nekusar, the Mindrazer

Why are you not running Necropotence , Mystic Remora or Rhystic Study ?

The problem here is that an awful lot of decks in French contain Aven Mindcensor and other nasty cards.

Also - I know it's surprising but I don't think this is fast enough. Whilst it does follow a rough shell shared by other decks (control outline with combo win condition), it doesn't share any way to accelerate the combo. For example, Grand Arbiter Augustin IV is one of the most popular generals in these kinds of colours simply because he accelerates every spell in the game. You don't have that kind of power.

Interesting thoughts you bring to meChiefBell i'll check the french banlist about Necropotence that i will gadly add;

considering Mystic Remora (never tried) , Rhystic Study (used to be here) i need to draw instantaneously and resiliently, i often play against heavy creature builds and those cards could be a gambit if not in a multiplayer set

About the fastness (hahaha sry i'm french) of course you are right but sometimes you just don't wanna play green But playing this deck don't make me fear of cards such as Aven Mindcensor i usually have great control over the board if i don't counter/discard my opponent hand

I apologise. Necropotence is banned in French.

Your list is pretty good.

Right now, you lose to Sadistic Sacrament, or even Jester Cap or a well placed Castigate. You should run Pull From Eternity, and at least 1 alternate win condition. Maybe Magister Sphinx.

You should run Pact of Negation, it's so useful for this deck. What's the point of Zur's Weirding here?

Future Sight costs too much, and triple blue, so I'd cut it. Check out my list if you are curious:
