Hi everyone! After being inspired by DesolatorMagic and his Beholder Alpha (you can find his list in this video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObPiUhE6Z00 ) i tried my take on his build and i'm playtesting it.

The aim of the deck is to control the opponent via counters, bounce anything you can't counter and eventually imprinting on Isochron Scepter a counter (possibly Deprive since you don't have to bounce a land by casting it from Isochron Scepter or a Remand to get card advantage) or Silence to lock your opponent out (I was also considering Angel's Grace for this task).

The ultimate goal of the deck is actually to stall and stay alive untill you can kill your opponent with creatures. The deck can really crush combo decks thanks to the load of counters and Meddling Mage which almost always spells gg for decks that are all-in on a combo like ad nauseam. Tough I'm still looking for a way to consolidate against cratures decks.

I'm sill not sold on those Judge's Familiar and i'm thinking about Delver of Secrets instead, i'm also considerind to take out 2 tandems (that looks to me like a win more card) in favor of 2 Muddle the Mixture for both counterspelling and tutoring isochron but i'm still not sure about that.

Help and suggestions are really appreciated for sideboard cards too.
