Main idea is to control the board until one of my beaters come out...thassa plus master of cruelties is a great win con as well

Feels a little incomplete...thoughts? Sideboard suggestions?

[JordanCirk]

-2 cancel
-3 diabolical tutor
-2 lazav, dimir mastermind
-2 ral zerek

+1  {Dissolve}
+2  {Syncopate}

All about that {Young Pyromancer}

[Steerpike]

Shouldn't you just run a playset of {Dissolve} and take out a {Counter}?

Edit: oh someone already mentioned that :3

[Pirate John]

Yea, replace all {cancel}'s with {dissolve}

[respawned]

Trying a slightly dif approach...thoughts?

Is Thassa mainly used as just a scry? To me it doesn't seem like she will be that useful. Takes up the space where a counter could be used instead. Also do you not have any blood crypts?

Thassa is in to make master of cruelties unblockable and for scry...I do have crypts...I haven't actually worked my mana out completely yet

 {Rogue's Passage} for your master of cruelties

Leave Grixis to Lady!

Jk, I appreciate how you were going old school with the {Cancel}, but {Dissolve} is the same cost plus a little treat!

[Pirate John]

No ral zarek whatsoever. You aren't really using his tapping/untap pig ability all that much. It'd be better to play 2 more Jace or Chandra. Maybe liliana (2BB) to help dig for swamps like blood crypt and whatnot.

[JordanCirk]

Seems better, but I agree with no ral zereks. He's just been proven to not be impressive.
