Alright, so I took my grixis deck, The Power of a Dragon, to FNM this past Friday. It did well, but more importantly it showed me holes in the deck that need filling, and I wanted some advice with it.

So, my first big problem is removal. If I don't have Counterflux in my hand it's a problem. So I'd like to run just a few more counters to protect my cipher combo. Second, a friend of mine suggested Dimir Charm for it as well, especially because of the synergy with Nightveil Specter , but I'm not sure what to take out for that either, plus I don't have any right now. Not to mention it acts as another counter if I need it and weenie removal. That's my last thing, simple removal. A couple of straight up Murder s would be ideal I think, thoughts here?

Bumping for more help, caved and cut out Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius and sideboarded Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker Cipher with Guttersnipe has proven to be a reliable and hard to beat win con, even for a "fantasy" deck a friend proxied out worth $500, so I'm trying other cipher spells as well. Plus, there's no such thing as a wasted spell with Nivmagus Elemental on the field. Everyone's always surprised when the cipher does guttersnipe damage...
