As you can see, in game one I got plenty of countermagic and a bit of aggro in my maindeck, not very unlike Illusions but unless you have a blazing fast hand I don't try to rush control decks. Instead I just make sure I always have a creature out while I keep up countermagic and punish them with Swords if they tap out or I see they have no answer via a probe. I have chosen to not run Mirran Crusiader and Hero of Bladehold because equiping a small creature and getting it killed is a huge tempo-loss, but equiping a 3/4 mana creature and getting it killed is often game over. Mirran Crusaider got some protection, but the most common removal (in my meta) is 1) Red spells, 2) Doom Blade, 3) Vapor Snag and it's protection only holds vs half of that.

The best part about the deck is the sideboard. In G1 you have a quite bad match-up vs most aggro decks, and I felt that in G2 and G3 it would get even worse if I tried to stick to the same plan. I don't need many cards at all vs control, I only want to get out SoWaP and a Vapor Snag most of the time so I only needed to Dissipates in the board (good against ramp too). This made it possible to transform into UW-control when needed. Against humans for example I take out:

3 Doomed Traverer
3 SoFaF
1 Midnight Haunting

And take in:

1 SoWaP
2 Gideon Jura
4 Day of Judgement

If they don't seem to be running Mirran Crusaider and Angelic Destiny the Vapor Snags get replaced. This was just an example, against Illusions and RDW you obviously want the Timely's and not the countermagic (Humans rely a lot more on bigger bombs that cost 3-4 mana, so I want countermagic here).

What are your thoughts? I've been thinking about a 3rd bomb in the SB for the aggro match ups, but I don't want a titan with only 22 lands and I couldn't find anything else as good.

Delver Of Secrets Is The BestWorst Card In This Deck inspired this deck, yeah this is a modern article. It was still the article that gave the seed that later grew into the above deck.
