Although I like Grixis and dragons more, I have come to accept that white is a better complement to U/B than red. I want to try and make something that's still going to be good after rotation in April, please don't suggest any degenerate mana additions. I want it to be good against Bant Collected Company, and Four-Color Rally the Ancestors until rotation, which is why I have the sweepers, and I'll sub in more one for one removal once their mana bases rotate. Also Hallowed Moonlight shuts down both of those. I've got Flaying Tendrils in the sideboard for Atarka Red matchups now that they're going wide along with lifegain both mainboard and sideboard in Ojutai's Command and Foul-Tongue Invocation . I've got Myth Realized in there as something for the deck to do on turn one, and it's a good mana sink and win con later in the game.
