pretty solid control deck

hold the board while you have jace or ashiok and just wait for aetherling

side board gives you tons of options, but it's set up perfectly to take on almost any speed of deck with supreme verdict. only thing you need to be concerned about is slaughter games - just toss in the thoughtsieze and hope you get it out of their hand - not to much you can do about it though

few note's on some of the cars

• syncopate's, use them early on sync and sync for 1 turn 2 and they're not terrible latter on in the game and they exile which is nice for some of the golgari stuff but they can easily be replaced for render silent's if you prefer

I like mutavault's but i find having some color issues while running them - up to you

enjoy it's a fun (if you're not playing against it)
