    Hi, I've been working on Grixis Control for a few months.  When was the last time you played this deck?  Pros, cons?
    • Isaak Davis | 25-May-2014 17:00
      the cons are that it has trouble when the board gets flooded with creatures due to the fact we dont have any board wipes, keranos would be an amazing thing to add to this deck, overall the deck played pretty solidly

        I had the same problem with my second build.  I'm working on acquiring 2x Keranos and the Temples of Epiphany to try it out again.  I want to try it against burn because I think the Izzet Charms and Negates should be enough to survive until Rakdos Return blows them out. How did you feel about Ral Zarek?  I thought he was pretty useless.  If I didn't use him to ramp into a big Rakdos Return he just did nothing.  I'm thinking about trying Chandra, but Keranos might be better card advantage.
