Deck Description

My second Esper Control build. I wanted to do something different with the planeswalkers so I put Elspeth in the board and main decked Memory Adept.

How to Play

Hold off your opponent's deck with mass control. Win conditions are AEtherling, Blood Baron, Obzedat, or milling them out with Jace.

Deck discussion for Esper Control 2.0

I'm just making these points to try and help your building process. Constructive criticism, if you will.
1. Why only 3 Sphinx's Revelations? Mono Blue and Mono Black matchups are almost always ended by a mid-late sphinx's revelation. I think you might as well play 4.
2. I don't know that you need 2 aetherling's with also playing 2 barons and an obby.
3. No far//away mainboard? I think there isn't really a matchup where you want it out. Maybe against control, but in that case, since you want it against the rest of the field, might as well play it mainboard.
4. I like the spiciness of the Trading Post in the sideboard. Maybe more than one?

1. I only have 3 Sphinx's :(
2. AEtherling is tougher to get rid of so he's in there just in case
3. I've been considering switching Far//Away with Devour Flesh
4. Refresh the page and look at the deck in about 2 or 3 minutes.
