I saw Lilly's Esper Control and was like FINALLY somebody found use for Liliana lol so I'm kinda disappointed

How does it play? I like all of your (other) PWs

Very nice deck, maybe {far and away} ?

For me I run 2 elspeth, 2 ætherling and 1 blood baron. The ashiok would be the 4th dissolve, the rift is another hero's downfall and I also don't run jace either (mainly cause I don't own any) so I have 2 far //away and 2 divination. Have you considered elixer in mirrors or main board? I've found that it's interesting agains most decks

I have really considered the elixer just for really grindy games.. Just got back from FNM went 3-1, Selesnya aggro seems to be the hardest matchup in my meta... Looking at far/away right now.. Might consider it.

Rift is amazing, and Ashiok is underwhelming... Might have to take out Ashiok maybe for a ratchet bomb... Still working on it.

Also jace makes this deck possible...without him I am not sure the deck would work...

I played UW without Jace for a while. Ran fine. Runs 100% better now that I have him, but you can technically do without if money is object.

I feel like Ashiok needs a deck built specifically for her

^ this. I really don't like her in esper control. Feels clunky. I run one elixir mb. It's really awesome
