Mono-Blue Control

Alter Reality + Llawan, Cephalid Empress = Opponent can't play creatures

Alter Reality + Douse = Opponent's spells are countered

Elite Arcanist + any instant + Training Grounds = Tap to play spell for free

/\ above combo + Galvanic Alchemist = Untap for 1 mana/Repeat

Guile + any counterspell = Play my opponent's cards

Lorthos, the Tidemaker + Training Grounds = Board control ability cheaper

Into the Roil = Board removal + Draw

I realize that Guile and Lorthos are expensive to cast, but I figure that I have all the time in the world, so it doesn't really matter. And I'm not running multiples because I want to avoid a dead-draw as much as possible, plus they're mostly just in here to really put the game to an end.

Jace mostly for draw, but also as an alternate win-con (plus milling may help get rid of future threats if my opponents only have a few and didn't draw them yet)

Maybeboard has some things I may want to switch in.

*This is my first attempt at a control deck and I find myself getting stuck every now and then. I feel like I'm on the right path, I just need some more tweaking, so any help to keep things running smoothly is greatly appreciated!
