Deck Description

Sigh.....Yes, it's Bolas Control again.

I've changed it around without putting in the seemingly expensive Thragtusks and put in the Sphinx's Revelation instead, along with more Flashback in terms of Lingering Souls for more aerial defense. It's working fairly decent now, and strangely most of the stuff I mill with Grisly Salvage shouldn't be a major concern. I can flashback it with Snapcaster and having multiple copies will ensure consistency.

And oh boy, look at the mana pool for this deck! Man, is it complicated like crap. Don't worry, still works even for a 5-color control deck. You just have to get the correct mana for the lead your about to play on the 2nd turn (say Grisly Salvage) and then continue with the milling and ramping.

How to Play

BOLAS CONTROL!!!!!!! Play Bolas early and go smack down your opponent.

She might actually be. I could use more blue-stalling that could overclass Vraska, but I already fear more phasing out of Innistrad in Standard, so it seems like a good choice, but more to concern about in the future.

Yeah good point, all of the innistrad block rotates? not just the innistrad set?

Innistrad BLOCK (Innistrad, Dark Ascension and Avacyn restored) and M13 SET cycle out when the Theros Block starts in September / October. There are a few months where we will have Return to ravnica block, Innistrad block, M13 and M14 all at once in standard.

So far the M13 dual lands should be safe, but the innistrad WB, UG, RW, RB ones are not so sure. With the guilds still in Standard I daresay they will..

Huh? Everything has been printed most likely. Just gotta see what they spoil. I reckon they'd be leaving that till near the end. Like the dual lands.
