So thinking back to standards past one of my favorite decks was Superfriends. Of course that involved Ajani V and the color red, but looking at the GP Toronto top 8 I saw an updated version of the deck, in the form of Esper.
Reference:
UWb Control
Creatures [3]
3 Wall of Omens
Instants [2]
2 Path to Exile
Sorceries [10]
3 Oust
3 Supreme Verdict
4 Lingering Souls
Enchantments [7]
3 Detention Sphere
4 Spreading Seas
Planeswalkers [9]
3 Elspeth, Knight-Errant
3 Gideon Jura
3 Jace, Architect of Thought
Artifacts [4]
1 Azorius Signet
1 Talisman of Progress
2 Batterskull
Lands [25]
1 Arid Mesa
1 Godless Shrine
1 Scalding Tarn
1 Watery Grave
2 Hallowed Fountain
2 Island
2 Plains
3 Seachrome Coast
4 Celestial Colonnade
4 Marsh Flats
4 Tectonic Edge
Sideboard
1 Ghostly Prison
3 Leyline of Sanctity
1 Meddling Mage
2 Mindbreak Trap
1 Negate
2 Path to Exile
3 Rest in Peace
2 Spellskite
I like the looks of the deck. I feel like the set up is strong. Played around a bit with the list and notice Affinity is a very tough matchup for it.
Also I'm not a big fan of Oust, the deck could need it but I'm not convinced it does, so I tweeked the deck a bit and came up with these changes:
-3 Oust
-1 Detention Sphere
-1 Gideon
+1 Path
+1 Sphinx's Revalation
+3 Mana Leak
That was my first testing. I like a bit of permission, but would Remand be better than Mana Leak in this style deck?
