Nice Cruel Control, I like the amount of control you have. I suggest taking out 1 Island and 3 Mana Leak to put in 3 Mulldrifter and another Kolaghan's Command to have Kolaghan's more consistently and Mulldrifter to get Cruel Ultimatum into your hand faster.

I had those evoke dudes in mind, Shriekmav also but i don't want to cut too much. Replacing all Mana Leaks seems to be a heavy change in my opinion. What do you think about cutting 1 Mana Leak and 1 Spell Snare? Is it worth playing 2 Mulldrifter? Also like i said i thought about adding Shriekmaw instead of 2 Terminate or 1 Terminate and 1 Cryptic Command. But i'm stil not sure.
About getting Cruel to your hand faster wouldn't in be better to use Serum Visions since it dig's for 3 for only 1 mana? It also smooth out the mana for when you have 3 mana and you are gonna keep manaleak up etc.
I had Serum Visions in previous builds and was not so happy with it. Many times i had the problem I scried after drawing got the Ultimatum on top and had to fetch during opponents turn to kill something and lost the Ultimatum or ich fetched and shocked me to fix mana or being able to counter or something and draw Ultimatum and did not get it on top.Either i lost Ultimatum to answer a threat or i lost 3 life without needed reason in case i could get the Ultimatum on top.So i dropped the Serum Visions and i don't like Ancestral Visions. :-p
Nice deck, I really like CruelControl. How are the check lands working out for you? I don't personally like them in 3 color deck's especially with manlands, I myself too often have a starting hand with only land's that come to the play tapped. All in all the deck looks solid ;) I see you have some agro players on your meta!
In past it was sometimes a little drawback playing 4 checklands with 4 manlands but i try to keep the lifeloss minimal because of lacking lifegain.Yeah there are many aggro palyers and it's another reason for less shocklands. We got some W/x Token, Soulsisters, Elve/Junk Company Chords, Ravager, Merfolks and if i am not wrong i have seen Goblins and a zombie guy too if i'm not wrong.
