This is the hardest build I have ever encountered, honestly. I don't understand why it's so hard for me to build this. If you have any suggestions, please tell me. I can use all the help I can get.
The idea is to use the spells and early-game creatures to control the crap out of your opponent. Delver of Secrets
is pretty sweet. It usually transforms early, and it has flying.Inferno Titan is a fatty finisher for the deck. If the need comes for these guys, they usually pull through.
While powerful, the marauders are generally a large target for my opponents, so I need a more waterproof way to finish my opponent. That is where
Sorin's Vengeance
comes in. It is insanely powerful, and, if need be, it can be copied via
Chandra, the Firebrand
to insta-kill my opponent.
The only problem is, both of those cards cost large amounts of mana. So how can I be sure I'll draw the lands necessary? Well, the card advantage provided by Think Twice and
Tezzeret's Gambit
and others generally get me to the lands and other cards I need.
I tried to design this deck to run like your traditional U/B control with the addition of red aggro and burn.
I'd run liliana, but she has gotten too expensive.
The sideboard is designed for this deck's worst nightmare: aggro. It also has some Nihil Spellbomb to fight solar flare
The other 2 decks I plan on running in standard are F*** yeah, Tokens! and MBC (post rotation)
