Idea for a 3-color deck that incorporates multiple cards from the upcoming Modern Horizons set. The goal here is to use Astral Drift in combination with free or cheap cyclers to repeatedly flicker value-oriented ETB creatures and eventually grind the opponent out, all the while employing other control elements to help get us there. Cute things this deck can do include: flickering an opponent's creature with Slide and then eating it with Wasteland Strangler (RIP my hopes for Containment Priest in MH1; repeatedly cycling lands/cards and returning them with Eternal Witness / Life from the Loam ; sacrificing Flagstones of Trokair to Edge of Autumn to cycle for free while fixing mana; and so much more.

On the side, we have Dead of Winter . Ideally this card, with some help from Drift and cycling, will allow us to one-sidedly wipe the board for 3 mana. This inclusion is still up in the air (I'd be lying if I said the pun "Snow Drift" didn't have an impact), but I'd like to test the list before passing judgement.
