Deck discussion for Grixis Control

Really?
You chose Jace over Nicol Bolas in a Grixis Deck?
There's no place for red in a control deck, and the Mind Sculptor is more of a mill card anyway.
This deck is all over the place.

Converta turtle? Sounds like a ride at disney land.

I chose Jace because he's a strong card. He's significantly easier to cast than Bolas (which is a bit hypocritical considering there's cruel ultimatum's in there I know). If he mills I've no problem with that. I think more often than not Roiling Terrain will be the kill card in this deck.

Keep in mind I don't just copy and paste top decks. I built on the colors of the grixis shards. If there's any similarities between my decks and Top 8 stuff its because they just happen to be good cards.

That being said, removal and control run right up each other's alley's so I don't see why "there's no place for red in control."

grappple hanger is a retard and doesn't know anything about grixis

almost all removal in grixis is red and blue has an even bigger part in grixis hitting the double blue is almost always needed hiting double red not so much

i myself wouldn't run nicol bolas in grixis because he is a dead card for most of the game but when hits he hits hard or he is over run by creatures but he is a very good win contition especailly because he can't be killed by manlands or most types of creatures

the mind sculptor is almost never a mill card it it is stupid if you think so he is just control and card advantage witch is what you want in this deck

i like all the cards in here except for night hawk maybe you could replace it with a sphinx of jwar isle of lost truths, or gatekeeper, persecuter, sedraxis specter, or some more good spells
