Deck discussion for Grixis Control

Bolas is cool but he's in a mana cost of his own in your deck, he's why your running gilded lotus I assume and it's never a good idea to run 1 card to help 1 other card
There also seems to be a split between wanting to mill and and wanting to kill through damage pick one and stick with drop the jace which doesn't apply and if not mill drop the drownyard it's not increadably good

I would say same goes for Nephalia's Drownyard. I would rather have a land that gives one of your colors instead of a side effect of milling.
Also idk if it is really needed but Gem of Becoming is grixis colors and helps you keep consistent mana if you need it. Just an idea :D

Thanks for the critique!! Gilded lotus helps many other things in this deck aside from Bolas. Buffing your Rakdos's Return, Bonfires, ramps you to Temporal Mastery, and helps Olivia. Along with possibly fixing your mana base in the situation that you're missing blue red or black.
The mill aspect is in there as a very underrated and fast win condition for a control deck. Especially when vsing other control decks. But also would side out the Memory Addepts in a zombie match up.
