Deck Description

Grixis Control/Burn with Duskmantle Seer and Guttersnipe . Augur of Bolas helps me in early-game defense. Most of the time it will do some passive burning with these two, as these can damage opponents without even touching them.

Deck discussion for Duskmantle's Flames of Control

Nice deck, I have only some suggestions. What does Thought Scour do for you in the deck other than reducing its effective size? I ask because you run no Snapcaster Mages.

Also, look at Guttersnipe + Cipher interaction. Duskmantle Seer makes it a bit awkward due to the high mana costs of most Cipher cards, but still, the synergy between Last Thoughts and Guttersnipe seems great. Hands of Binding is probably not going to make it here, as you dont have the early creatures to take advantage of the tempo, which eventually leads to card disadvantage.

Stolen Identity: Create guttersnipe, shoot for 2, cipher on creature and attack, create another guttersnipe, shoot for 4. Downside is how it will hurt you with the Duskmantle Seer, but if you are feeling lucky, you can play this card anyway since you are a control deck at the end of the day.

goblin electromancer and past in flames would help this deck if you could make the room for them, great fun casting past in flames for one red while guttersnipe is out.
