This is the updated version of my original Black/Blue Infect/Control Deck.

The idea of this deck is fairly simple: give the opponent flying and unblockable poison counters, while canceling anything they play that you don't like (with just a touch of proliferation for good measure). It's quick, it's still pretty messy, but it's been very effective.

This deck usually wins in 6 - 8 turns (with the fastest I've ever won being turn 5), but I'm sure there's a way to make it faster.

The powerhouse combo of this deck is definitely:

Turn 4 - Hand of the Praetors Turn 5 - Blighted Agent for one poison + Distortion Strike on Praetors for 4 more. Turn 6 - Distortion Strike Rebound + Blighted Agent for a winning 10.

This can be achieved by many different creatures however, and is by far not the only strategy capable of winning (it's just the most lol'able one).

Any comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated!
