Esper EDH Control

This deck follows the theme of Esper control with lots of counterspells, removal, and card draw; because you know, it plays blue and white.

My favorite way to use this deck, because it is really slow, is to play it like that. We have Ghostly Prison and Propaganda against aggro and green deck hordes to keep us alive. We have a lot of card draw to keep our hands healthy. We keep our heads above water with kill spells, counterspells, and board wipes. My favorite end game interaction is Sheoldred, Whispering One and Karmic Guide to bring creatures out of the graveyard for no cost and overwhelm my opponents. You can work this deck in many ways, but that's my favorite.

Side board is for the French list: Sol Ring, Mana Vault, and Trinket Mage get boarded out from cards on the Side.

And suggestions are much appreciated! Thank you for taking the time to look at my list!
