I absolutely love the Grixis color combination and i feel like I want to play a deck that has a board presence and also has the disruption of a control deck. I believe Grixis can do it.

This build has smooth curve through-out with relevant cards in each slot

With Master of the Fatties (aka Feasts) being a huge threat early game that can also block a stormbreath two turns later seems good at 3 cmc and also does not die to my own Anger of Gods.

Planeswalkers come in on turn four either Jace or Chandra to start building a card advantage through Jace's filter and/or Chandra's zero ability.

Turn five is where we stabilize with Keranos, Stormbreath, Lilianna, and Sarkhan. Keranos, Sarkhan, and Stormbreath generate some much needed damage (assuming master of the feasts was dealt with ASAP). Sarkhan, and Keranos can also be used as spot removal. And Lilianna combos with Chandra to get the answers you need when you need them.

With Khans now in standard Grixis has access to (in my opinion) the best counter magic available. Dissolve, Nullify, Negate, and Mindswipe provide the disruption needed for this deck to stabilize.

Side board to come. Still figuring out exactly what I'll be up against in my area.

Comments and advice welcome!
