Starting a thread which will cover the different versions, so far the most common is Ub but there is a legit Uw version, both have their strengths and weaknesses. Black gives you Duress and Engineered plague while white gives you Enlightened tutor, Swords to plowshares and Disenchant. I am starting with Ub just because it seems to play very lean and has excellent disruption with Duress/Mesmeric Fiend. Lim-dul's Vault and Psychatog are also strong.

4x phyrexian dreadnought
2x psychatog
4x stifle
4x vision charm
4x portent
4x gush
4x foil
4x Daze
2x ghastly demise
3x duress
4x lotus petal
1x lim-duls vault
1x counterspell
1x impulse
4x Polluted Delta
10x Island
4x swamp

Sideboard
2x hydroblast
1x blue elemental blast
1x annul
3x engineered plague
3x tormod's crypt
3x chain of vapor
2x mesmeric fiend


Sideboard is a complete guess. Some lists use more dig, like Impulse. The white version uses maindeck Disenchant and sideboards Meddling Mage and Circle of Protection: Red.

Red is also a really good splash color, giving Grim lavamancer, Bolts, fire/ice, and Fling. I'm leaning towards the black splash currently but the red one is really appealing because it has more interactive play patterns.

The author has presented a balanced view on the topic and has provided useful insights that I had not considered before.

Why is there the usual blue stuff missing eg FoW etc? Not needed?

This is a Premodern deck, Brainstorm and Force of Will are banned in the format.

The deck aims to play lean and disruptive with cards like Duress and Mesmeric Fiend to disrupt the opponent's strategy. It also features cards like Lim-Dul's Vault and Psychatog as strong threats.
