A rough draft of a cycling control deck for Amonkhet standard. The maybeboard has some cards I'm considering that could take the deck in different directions. It could go combo focused with New Perspectives and Shadowstorm Vizier or Flamblade Adept or Cunning Survivalist, Collective Defiance, and maybe Fling. Or it could go really controlling with Fevered Visions. Or even graveyard based with Goblin Dark-Dwellers, Bedlam Reveler, and Enigma Drake. Suggestions and tips welcome. Lots of choices to explore for this deck. +1's appreciated, thanks!
