Control decks in the current meta are so lame.

-WU? So Wizards decided to make an unkillable creature. Good for you. Wake me up when you draw it.

-Esper? Board wipes and counterspells aren't enough for you? You need Thoughtseize and Hero's Downfall too? How about you actually try to beat me?

Time to show them all how a MAN plays a control deck. If watching Elspeth, Sun's Champion slowly creep up to her ultimate is your idea of winning with style, move on. But if you want to see the look of "Holy $#!t! WTF just happened?!" on your opponent's face, this is the deck for you.

At first, your opponent will think that you're just being slightly creative by playing the less-celebrated American control as you play Azorius Charm, Anger of the Gods, and Dissolve, but they'll still assume that Aetherling[[ is on the way about 40 minutes from now, with [[Sphinx's Revelation eventually digging it up. On turn 5, however, things will begin to change really, really fast. First comes Hypersonic Dragon or Stormbreath Dragon to deal the initial blow, and next turn, Aurelia, the Warleader comes in to mop up.
