Suggestions?
{Silumgar, the drifting death} maybe more {Heros downfall} and {Bile blight} over {ultimate price}
Besides that, it looks really good!
I feel like Esper is greedy I mean you don't need B or W. I think I'd suggest going UB or UW Control bc the mana is a lot easier.
Also Dragonlord Silumgar is just worse than Silumgar Drifting Death so I'd swap them

You're probably right, but Esper is a fun little combination of {Narset transcended} and {Ashiok nightmare weaver}
Oh, speaking of Ashiok, this deck needs two or three of him
I feel like {Evolving Wilds} should be in here. You also need more basics than fetches.
Updated version after testing. I'm fairly happy with it except the fact that its hard to run 4 ofs unless I pull something.
{Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver}, {Elspeth, Sun's Champion}, {Ugin, the Spirit Dragon}. Where them walkers at?
{Narset Transcendent} feels like a two of to me.
It's probably worth running more than one {Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth}.
Ashiok and elspeth aren't really needed. Ashiok doesn't do as much as Narset does. Plus I would rather have removal or a counter over her. I was originally playing elspeth but I pulled them out because she's not really needed. Whenever I would get an elspeth out ojutai was already taking care of my opponent. Narset is working really well. Giving me 2 dig through times or 2 copies of a removal spell is really nice. Plus she is a great distractor. I have been thinking about 1 or 2 ugins but the deck does fine without him
How's Ojutais Command?

Makes sense, but Ashiok is very good vs some decks. Might he worth side boarding.
I highly recommend trying Ugin. He's stupid good.

How's Ojutais Command?
I've done some testing with UW and it's just bad. None of the modes are great, most of the time you're paying 4 to gain 4 and draw a card. Just super mediocre, probably the worst command
Ojutais command has worked really well for me. I usually get a counter from it and the 4 life is a nice option. The extra 4 life has won me a game before but generally drawing a card is the better option.
Soorani did a deck tech on his list that looks sweet that's probably what I'll be running
