A deck to replace my current dredge because I just don't really feel like trying things to fix the deck right now, so I figured I would go a different way and go with a controlling deck like this one. I got the core of the deck from the Magic Online deck that Ari Lax used on SCG that he took off of MTGO, the deck's creator was Fuuunk originally. I added some stuff to really help the deck perform in paper by not running tons of anti-burn cards and instead begin focusing on value with cards like Snap Mage and more redundant targets for Gifts like the board wipes. I will be updating how the deck does at my LGS against other decks. Any suggestions to help strength the deck against different match-ups either through main and sideboard or just random suggestions are really helpful. Thanks for checking the deck out.
