I've seen several Grixis deck lists recently and most of them have been underwhelming. Fear not Grixis players, I bring you a competitive Grixis deck composed of a healthy mixture of control, discard, and bombs.

Win Conditions:

AEtherling: (Surprise surprise)

Stormbreath Dragon : (What a bomb)

Jace, Architect of Thought / Card advantage: (He's Jace)

Discard:

Lifebane Zombie: (So good and stays relevant with his ability)

Rakdos's Return: (Discard and Burn to either finish MoC or to just be annoying as hell)

Bombs:

Desecration Demon : (Overall good)

Stormbreath Dragon : (Pro-White is relevant and a good replacement for Thundermaw Hellkite)

AEtherling: (With open mana, watch your opponent weep)

Control:

Thassa, God of the Sea (Scry me a river)
