Deck discussion for Esper Allies 3.0

Tiny problem. Eldrazi. I ran a deck very similar to this and lost miserably to anyone who ran Emrakul, Ulamog, or the other one (I forgot the name). Since their ability causes that playe to shuffle their graveyard back into the library, milling is pointles. For that reason I keep Ulamog in my sideboard just for mill decks.

I see what you're getting at, but that's where my Hagra Diabolist comes into play. Also, if I see someone has Eldrazi that will destroy my mill deck purpose, I'm going to use Jwari Shapeshifters on Hagra Diabolist to double the damage they take...barely focusing on the mill aspect. I can probably actually remove the Journey to Nowhere and instead put in Sadistic Sacrament, making it 4 at the cost of one Loremaster. Whats your opinion?

very nice deck! I've considered making esper allies for a little while now, it's good to see someone has given me a bar to evaluate myself!

so far I've got my original 4 color ally deck (love it!) and a bant deck that has worked out quite well. feel free to check them out!

I just did some MASSIVE remodeling of the deck. Let me know what you think and what you think of the changes. I'm interested to hear your perspectives on my decisions to have more creatures, even though there is less consistency and redundancy. Let me know what you think <3

Let me know if you think I should go back to having maximum repetition by having 4 of all allies but having the Kabira and Lore Master back on SB. Give me your opinions.

I actually really like this build! the ardent plea is very interesting, not only do you cascade for any of the amazing 2 drop allies, but it automatically takes quite a few of them out of lightning bolt range.

A little less allies, but the additional spell backup is looking very good.

Hey rin, I changed the deck around a lot since the last time you saw it. Let me know what you think of it now. I basically shortened up loose ends in the deck and cut both dead draws and incorrect cascades.
