Hi. I'm quite recent legacy player and friend of mine want's to get a bit of competitive and he want's to play Ux control, propably white eventually black. Need some help in deckbuilding, howeaver just in making a "plan" for the deck. I have 3 types of deck "classic" Uw, thopter foundry combo, psychatog??
Few questions first:
Is trinket mage still cool?
Same for meddling mage.
Times of Mono U control with Morphling was super cool ;)

Most viable will be Uw as a most "flexible" version. I'm pondering something like that

10-12 counterspells (is absorb fine? which to choose after a counterspell and mana leak?)
4 Swords to plowshares
2-4 sweepers (WoG? ratchet bomb, keg?)
draw ponder, fact or fiction (theese two we have :) ), impulse? Any other ? Ancestrall vision?

some utility cards for earching and disrupting opp gameplan
Maybe a Trinket mage + toolbox pithing needle, meekstone, tormod's crypt any others?
Finishers are most difficult for me.
Morphling <3 but hard to get it and it's not so cool novadays. Sphinx of jwar isle? Any other?

Let's keep the total deck cost in about 60-80$

Waiting for You's advices :):)
