Deck discussion for UB control FTW

Yikes! 26 Lands??? I'd replace a couple of Tectonic Edges with 2 Despises. You get more hand removal and you've already got spreading seas which is already a land control card. Also, stoic rebuttal is not that great of a counter card since you don't have a single artifact in your deck (besides the three in sideboard). Phyrexian Revoker is a better choice for control and I'd put Hex Parasite in the side besides Wurmcoil. Otherwise...great deck. I'm thinking about making one myself.

A lot of land is necessary when you are always keeping mana untaped for counters or kill spells. Stoic rebuttal is the same as a cancel, a hard counter for late games when spell pierce and mana leak don't really do much. Wurmcoil is in my sideboard because I need alternate win conditions in some cases surgical extraction can remove all other options.

I think you need some more maindeck win conditions. Creeping Tarpit won't really cut it with all of the land hate around to combat Valakut.

I say cut the stoic rebuttals, add a wurmcoil and a karn liberated. I would also consider cutting 1 duress and 1 more into the roil, into the roil will be very handy with all of the enchantments that are gonna see play.
