How do you deal damage?

How do you deal damage?

I'm thinking of putting angel of serenity, isperia but idk

I would run 4 lingering souls and take out your syncopates

The Esper control decks I've seen on TCGplayer.com have {Lingering Souls}, have {Azorius Charm} and {Thought Scour}, but I don't know how they deal damage either. {Sorin, Lord of Innistrad} tokens? {Jace, Architect of Thought} ultimate? {Snapcaster Mage} and {Auger of Bolas} damage? Seems unlikely.

{entreat the angels mabe?

90% of the Esper control decks run 4 {Jace, Architect of Thought} and 2 {Tamiyo, the Moon Sage}. Sometimes 4 {Augur of Bolas} (or less) and maybe 4 {Snapcaster Mages}. They all run {Lingering Souls} and...I don't know how they do damage. I'm gonna try to put it together for the sake of it. I'll provide a report

In response to all... Ill try it! Ummm yeah sorin seems to be the best kill con.. But I'm gonna test different things out..I need spot removal but I don't think ultimate price will make the cut..murder is a bit too much

You could use  {Undead Alchemist} and mill?

 {Runechanter's Pike} on a token maybe?

thanks buddy I really appreciate it!!:)

I play Bant Aggro and although it took over 12 turns, my deck won.  It very well could have been due to keeping bad hands or just not playing the deck properly. I don't usually play control though.  Supreme Verdict slowed me down a lot though. Have you looked into {Fettergeist}? I haven't seen it used much in standard but I think it would help your deck early game. Who doesn't want a 3/4 flyer for 3?!
