I've build this deck over the time since I've started playing MTG Arena. It started as a Dimir ans slowly evolve to an Esper, especially with the arrival of Allegiance. It is very flexible and could answer most of the threats. With about a dozen of surveil cards and a lot of Drawing I'm still very attached to Disinformation Campaign . This card can empty the hand of many opponents very quickly. Kaya's Wrath and Cry of the Carnarium can clean the board and leave sufficient time to put a planeswalker or a Doom Whisperer into play. There's also some way to gain life. It's essential against red decks. And 3 copies of Mortify can help with all those hateful enchantment in the format. Finally Discover /Dispersal and Eldest Reborn can deal with Carnage Tyrant and the latest can bring back my planeswalkers or any good creatures like Chromium, the Mutable , Doom Whisperer or anything good in opponent's graveyard. Mono blue tempo and mono Red deck are the strongest against this deck.. So the sideboard goes accordingly. Since this deck is highly based on removal, the sideboard also contain spells to switch against creatureless control decks.
