I'm kinda fishing for ideas on what would make a good standard planeswalker deck. I was thinking an esper color scheme and trying to grab the new {sorin, solemn visitor}. If I got this together, it'd be my first legit standard deck so input is appreciated.

Most def gonna wiggle at least one in there. Lol.
But honestly I'm more stumped on my control options. Banishing light, bile blight, and dissolves are primo choices. I suppose it wouldn't hurt to wait for the rest of khans to be spoiled. But my main walkers as of right now will be {Elspeth, suns champion}, {jace the living guild pact}, {Ajani steadfast}, and {sorin solemn visitor}

Elspith and Sorin work quite well together.

Sorin wants to be in a deck with creatures.

Jund walkers is an actual deck that's competitive and not just junk. And no. Don't play {the chain veil}.

I imagine it's still solid with the new sarkhan. I'm not familiar with a jund pw deck though.

What's your argument against the chain veil?

Low impact. If rather have that four mana to hold up a removal spell.

That's a good one. Haha. It's almost always a sea card in my Bant walkers deck. It's just fun as a one of if I ever get the chance for shenanigans.

Bant decks have access to the most OP card in standard, {prophet of kruphix}, making that 4 mana mean nothing.

I love the prophet. Haha. But in my modernish pw deck, I'd rather drop a pw turn five than a creature that I can't protect.
