Deck Description

I am working on UWR control for standard. UWR has been my favorite deck since getting back into MTG. I have the deck started some cards are open for debate and the last 10 cards are whatever is decided. I played UWR at my FNM a couple days ago. I had 26 lands in that build and flooded out very badly that is why I want to play 25. Testing online Keranos is insane in a control build. We all know how amazing Elspeth and Jace AoT are. So please take a few minutes check out the deck and throw me some suggestions to play around with..... Thank You

2 AEtherling. Fav within standard control.
I would say Sin Collecter but you're not playing with black
Maybe some Magma Jet and Lightning Strike. Also, look at Far // Away for Far
Mizzium Mortars is also great in control with red in it, same with Anger of the Gods
Syncopate is also a must, maybe 2 of them

I do not think that there are official names for 4 color decks. "Not red" implying that it's WBUG.

You only need Far // Away for the Far part of it, that's the beauty of Fuse. Turn // Burn is also a good one to have in here. Effective against indestructable

I think if I'm playing a bounce effect that cyclonic rift is better than far

True.
Still, something like AEtherling or Niv-Mizzet would work well in here as a win-con. Probably Niv because of the draw

If I remember correctly, I ran 1x Aurelia, Niv, and AEtherling in mine.

I like the concept s0rinmark0v. So do i get 4 rares besides the sphinx of steel wind? Checkout my competitive grixis control let me know what you think. I'll work on an esper control build.

The concept of the deck is that it is Commons and Uncommons only, and the only 4 rares are your Leaders of the Pack: A rare creature used in the deck 4 times. There are links on both my Leaders of the Pack deck for other examples. As for what you should do, it can be anything; the creator (PrinceCooshie101) had done a mono-red based around Ash Zealot and a mono-white based around Elite Inquisitor

The colors used is it commander style or can I use Trostani, Voice of Selesnya and build a GWB deck?

Commander style. Sorry!
If you want, you could ask PrinceCooshie101 for clarification. As far as I know, it has to be commander colours but you could do something like a Mono-Blue spash Green for Prime Speaker Zegana
