Really need feedback and suggestions! Trying to keep costs somewhat low but willing to spend the money to see results. If not I can always dismantle and use the staples somewhere else.

Precon Mind Seize deck with a few changes.

I like the card draw and control, along with the copying of spells.

Win cons:-Death by draw-Swing with something big and unblockable

Plays mostly off of Nekusar, the Mindrazer's draw/damage ability, doubled up with Underworld Dreams. Furnace of Rath to double the damage from all sources and Wound Reflection to double that. With all 4 out, drawing cards is pretty devastating. Font of Mythos for 2 extra cards during draw step. I don't think I'll have all of them in place much of the time though.

Threw in the Cyclonic Rift + Windfall/Winds of Change combo for some more good damage. Jace's Archivist's ability is a good substitute of either of those too.

Price of Knowledge is still in because with a lot of card draw it can make a difference.

Exquisite Blood + Sanguine Bond thrown in for laughs.

Kept in a lot of cards that copy spells, useful in many ways. I like copying opponents spells back at them. Wrexial, the Risen Deep and Jeleva, Nephalia's Scourge for more free spells.

Staples like Thraximundar and Vampire Nighthawk kept in.

Glaring Spotlight thrown in because I play against a lot of Hexproof.

Took a lot of inspiration from tlk_lone_knight's Nekusar EDH deck.Thanks for sharing!
