Deck Description

Standard, Sultai control...

How to Play

I like it how Interpret the Signs work well with Delve... ...I can actually cast spells with Delve for cheaper, but when I cast Interpret & I draw cards according to Murderous Cut for instance, it's still 5 cards, cuz what matters is it's CMC...

I wouldn't play 4 Rakshasa's Secret if I couldn't control well when not to draw it & when to put it in my graveyard, cuz when an opponent got no cards in hand, it's useless... ...though right now in standard, many deck types play considerable draw spells, so it's a bit better...

I think the rest is clear... ...any thoughts on improovement?..

Deck discussion for Empty the Bowels

I don't like interpret the signs (again), it just seems like a bad card that can miss very easily. It seems like this cost far outweighs the benefits, so I would suggest jace's ingenuity for that slot. I would also swap the Rakshasa's Secrets for thoughtseize and the bitter revelations for counterspells like more dissipate or a few dissolve. I do like the one of hornet queen in here, have you thought about building a sultai reanimator deck? :D

Do we have cards for reanimator now in standard? The only thing that gets creatures into play from graveyards is Liliana's ultimate I believe...

I never missed with Signs yet... ...I always drew at least 4 cards with it & in the worst case sinerio, I'd draw 3 cards in this deck + that Scry3 beforehand is awesome... ...it is a highly underestimated card, though it's way-way better in my 4 color control deck.......

You're probably right about running more counterspells, but I think that in the main deck, I just gonna' run 1 more... ...I'm gonna' swap a Rakshasa's Secret with the Dissipate in the sideboard & not even using Secret in the sideboard, I'm gonna' use either 1 more counter spell or a 4th Thoughtseize...


Thanks!

You have Whip of Erebos as well... :3 I just think that it is too conditional and while you haven't missed with it yet, when you do you will be horribly disappointed. Yeah that's fair, I think that your sideboard looks pretty solid now, and the deck looks pretty sweet as well! :D No prob, just trying to help! :3
