My take on Eldrazi and Taxes for Modern. I chose Esper colors over W/B or Mono-White because it adds counterspells for an extra level of insurance and the mana base doesn't suffer much since the pain lands plus arcane sanctum give me lots of tri-lands in this basically 4-color deck. I'm still tinkering with the numbers on some cards and I am thinking about adding a Restoration Angel or two for extra value.

Suggestions would be greatly appreciated, but please keep in mind that I am on a budget. Thanks!
