Tasigur or angler are good
But you don't get to use tasigurs ability. Seems like such a waste.

It is which is why angler is a better pick in this situation

Ps never forget modern 101 : if you play black you play bob

I don't agree with this. Especially for control.
Controll is the whole reason to play bob.... Your spells are cheap and it gives you extra draw power that you need to keep up in controll

At the expense of your life, which control cannot afford. It has a hard enough time in modern as it is. I have never seen a control list (I've only see Jeskai, Esper and Grixis for modern) with bob in it. It dies to your wraths and opponents spells and hurts you. {Sphinx's Revelation} is king. (Or close to it). If I wanted something on those lines I'd run {Phyrexian Arena}. I could totally see it in Tempo and it has a deserved home in many decks (Jund, Mono {B} Devotion) but I think it is over rated and over priced. I know it's a powerful card, I respect it. But it is not a if black run this card.

I honestly see your point. I guess we will agree to disagree

I usually don't like rakdos decks but I made a troll deck focused on discarding your own cards and putting them into play with madness/unearth, I was running fiery temper and Liliana of the veil in it (Somethimes Tibalt the fiend blooded), you should try a deck like that, it combines control discard and aggro, I don't guarantee it being effective :)
