Deck discussion for Grixis Control

Grixis Control...I keep hearing/seeing "Grixis" and I have no idea what it is.
However, looking at this deck, it is a list of "who's who" of mean cards!
Dark Confident and Snapcaster Mage in the same deck, yucky!

Lots of spells to benefit from Mage.
Lavamancer keeps doing damage with all of the instant/sorcery cards going into the graveyard.
Dark Confidant is going to keep cards in your hand...and with everything, smartly, costing so little mana...he isn't going to hurt you too much.

Good stuff.

Yes I love the idea of lavamancer, confidant, and snapcaster in the same deck, its three color human tribal! Grixis is what they call this color combo, UGW is bant, RWB is dega, etc there are alot

I have never built a 3 color deck. :(
Mostly been scared of not drawing what I need and mana issues.
All the high dollar fetchlands pretty much fix the mana issues.
You could put lots of draw spells and tutor spells to fix the "being scared of" issue of not drawing what you need.

I probably should try!

Regardless, the deck, good sir, looks very mean!

Have you thought about updating this list with khans cards? fetches, ancestral cruise, etc?

Grixis is my favorite shard and I tried making a grixis control deck as well. Mine ran a few more substantial minions such as clique. dope list tho, thinking about adding the ultimatum to mine

yea i havent messed with this list in awhile. i played it twice at FNM's, but didint feel it was ptq ready after getting going 2-2 once and 3-2 another time. america control just seems to have a better matchup late game with collonade. it is a fun list, and polluted delta/bloodstained mire/cruise would all be helpful.

i played when cruel ultimatuum was standard and ran it as a finisher, i think its still viable late game in modern
