Put in{ grislebrand} instead of something, also {ammas the components} maybe {killing wave}

ChrisRodriguez

Put {grislebrand} in over the sphinx. {curse of Death's hold} should be main boarded. It's so good right now.

Guypocolypse

Can someone post an end declist for this?

I don't know why more people don't run {spellskite} and {Ludevic's test subject} in control decks. Seriously almost unstoppable.

Test subject is too easy to kill and I rather have something else that does more than him, and spellskite would be a good side board but I don't like using him lol

Wally

Dunno how it's easy to kill when you play control, you cancel anything that would kill it, and redirect anything that you can't to the spellskite. Drop your untapped mana on it at the end of their turn, flip and trample for 13 damage. Two hits and it's GG.

I love Love LOVE {Ludevic's Test Subject} in control!  It starts off as an 0/3 for 2 to hol off some early offence, You're always leaving mana open til the end of their turn and if they don't cast anything worth countering, you dump your extra mana into the test. If you have board control late-game, you can just plop it down an pile counters on right away. What's not to love?

Idk I just like how my deck flows like you do little to nothing turn one/two, turn three you can drop a talisman and gain life or go for the throat/ tragic slip, turn four and five same thing just throwin them off tempo and turn six dropping big daddy grave Titan or wurmcoil to start hitting big, I don't wanna mana early game to drop a feeble creature instead of getting a draw or mana leaking and late game I rather have a big guy I can just drop than an egg that I have to pay 12 mana for to make it a 13/13 trample

I don't know if you should be playing control. If you like dropping stuff, try playing pod or something. Your plan is to basically conceive to delver.

Also, is there any reason for the mainboarded {Ratchet Bomb}?

I use it alot in my meta, alot of aggro decks, and it's very utilitarian, takes out tokens, planeswalkers, and enchaments which are my biggest threats to the deck
