Bolas' Caress is my grixis discard deck. I lost the original (was stolen out of my bag, probably because it was so mean) and this is my rebuild, where I've basically reworked the whole deck. with specters, Blightning s, and Liliana's Caress and Bloodchief Ascension to punish them for it. in the process of this rebuild though, I have lost a lot of focus and flavor (the original ran Nicol Bolas and Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker !). what it used to do was get down lower in life while picking off opponent's hands, then punished them for having small hands (Shrieking Affliction , Hellfire Mongrel ), and finishing mercilessly with a Cruel Ultimatum or well placed Rakdos's Return . now it is a little more obvious, and less ominous.

I mostly want to get the flavor back, but I am getting to really like the newcomers, Sleeper Agent and Bloodchief Ascension . this deck is casual, but I would be open to suggestions to make it more competitive as well.
