Needs more persist, and actual creatures that have either undying or persist.

Woodfall Primus

Also maybe a more easy to reanimate gravepact, like Butcher of Malakir.

So, what level of tournament play are you aiming for? And for now, my observations would be:

• Tasigur, the Golden Fang would make a much better commander in BUG. Especially considering the whole graveyard mill thing.

• You either need more counterspells, or don't run them. 5 is a really awkward place to be - you have a 1 in 20 chance of getting any one counterspell. And then two of them are conditional and one costs triple blue.

• I count only two main win conditions: Avenger of Zendikar + Craterhoof Behemoth and Mikaeus, the Unhallowed + Triskelion. Mike + trike is fairly stock but with avenger, presumably you're going to Living Death into the combo or something. So haste is a must here. Akroma's Memorial or Concordant Crossroads.

• I'm going to have to disagree with DudelRok, Woodfall Primus is not a good fit for the deck. It only combos with one card and even then, you need a sac outlet. Not to mention its not actually a win condition. Glen Elendra Archmage could be a good persist fit though.

• Ponder and Preordain feel really underpowered. You're not trying to storm off, I would look at more steady options. Monastery Siege is good.

• Since you're not running Hermit Druid instant combo kill, Narcomoeba seems not great. Sure its a creature to sac, but other than that its not overly good.

• Jarad's Orders is a great way to fill up your graveyard / hand. I would highly recommend it here.

• Buried Ruin should probably have a home here as it gets back Crucible of Worlds, and witha Life from the Loam, you can set the whole thing up even if you mill all the pieces.

Its just some small thing at a Game store, my brother wants me to play so I figured I would throw something together. I agree with Tasigur, but I don't have one, along with a great many of the cards you suggested from Khans block, I'll keep my eyes open for one and make the switch if I find one in time.

Out: Ponder, Preordain, Narcomoeba, Forest.

In: Remand, Jarad's Orders, Swan Song, Buried Ruin

I've been tinkering with a Tasigur Deck myself. I would suggest using Palinchron and Deadeye Navigator over Dark Confidant and Arcane Denial. With infinite mana, you'd be able to basically draw out your entire library and combo off from there

skull clamp seems terrible in this deck. Where is your mana drain?

Also rewind is a great counterspell for the tasigur deck.

I don't yet own a Mana Drain, though I plan on picking one up in a couple of days. Rewind is a good idea, I'll play around with in and see if it works.

I was wondering what are you exactly trying to target with Mental Misstep it kinda seems like a dead card 90% of the time in EDH.

Have you thought about maybe running mini combos? something like Deadeye Navigator + Venser, Shaper Savant or Vraska the Unseen + Doubling Season

I do have a couple lesser combo's in here already, Including the aforementioned Venser + Jedi, however, I don't think Vraska is a great choice for abusable ults with Season. If I find a season somewhere, I could see myself replacing Bribery with Jace, Architect for the uber bribery however.

Mental Misstep eats Sol Ring, One drop cantrips, One drop discards, and a bunch of other various things, I'll give you it's hyper narrow, but it isn't totally useless either. Also, it pitches to Force of Will like a champion.

Fair enough I also like vraska season for the multi turn removal.

I've stuck Karn and Vraska into the maybe board, though honestly if I wanted the Vindicate on repeat I would probably just take Karn.

how about Tormod's Crypt as some redundancy for Nihil Spellbomb?

I love how your 8 creatures, excluding the commander, are the best in the format. Looks strong to me. +1

Yeah, I'm not really a fan of creatures for the most part.

I can tell. I would have a fun time playing against you with my decks that averages 29 creatures. Nonetheless, how does the deck do overall?

It's come in second and third in the two six man pods it's been played in.

Sounds about right. I see a few esper and grixis control in my playgroups. Been a while since I've seen a BUG control deck. Most be fun to play!
