This is an attempt to build my old fate-themed deck You cannot change your fate... into a more traditional political control deck. While I have enjoyed playing the deck in its theme, it felt a bit restrictive to always play it to the theme, and made it hard when to decide to play it. When the very political Silverquill elder dragon was revealed, I decided to give it a little makeover.

The deck looks to build up while keeping our opponents off our back with defensive cards, as well as making deals using Silverquill's ability and our other controlling effects that can be used to help other players out. Winning the game will either be achieved by buffing up Silverquill enough that he can start killing our opponents with his Double Strike, or through some of the life-related win conditions present in the deck (possibly involving False Cure and Tainted Remedy).

The cards in the maybeboard are cards that were in my previous deck but I'm not sure I need in this one. Any suggestions will be appreciated
