Glad you made your adjustment and let me know how it goes. I did make some adjustment to spirit since I was really impress with the card value mid to late game. Turn 5 and paying all 5 mana for it still really good, forcing the opp to do something with it.

Thanks and let me know how it goes :) Another thing I wanted to note, I did adjust the numbers above due to couple play testing and spirit is really good on turn 4 if left alone. Even on turn 5 the pay-off is stupid good
I mean it is a pain in the a** to grind to get a lot of the cards. I got lucky that I got in Arena early and kept playing so I managed to get most of the cards throughout historic formats.It will take me some time to find some good suitable replacements for it especially the sideboard. Couple cards I can think of that is an instant add are Inquisition of Kozilek and replace the spark harvest for fatal push. Maybe replace the pathways for fabled passage. Kolaghan's Command will be replaced with bedevil (add it to sideboard)
The idea behind it, was due to all the lands are snow. Ideally by turn 6, you can cast the it. Even in far late game it can be casted for 2 land (not ideally) and forces them to not untap next turn. Even with Jona's artifact on end step can bring it into play
Well my intention was to have Lurrus be a companion since it is more fast control (being able to force early discard of key cards). I can see freebooter being in it due to disruption of opp's hand and forcing a removal. However the only problem I can see with it is, it does not fully remove the card out of game vs thoughtseize along with being a weaker target for claim vs dreadhoard, kroxa, or pyromancer. It would be totally worth it to playtest it and I will update it, if it works out. It would be great against UW control decks. Kolaghan's Command is not in historic format but I would totally mainboard that card in place of awaking and/or shock. If you want I can create my modern version of this deck
