Theros Esper with Ashiok to replace Drownyard.

Instead of milling to death with Nephalia Drownyard , the plan is to bring back the opponent's creatures as shadow demons with Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver and beat them to death with it. Rest of deck is standard control fare. Kill cards, card draw, general disruption and shenanigans. Esper did't lose much besides drownyard and Ashiok can be a good replacement if the rest of the deck is adjusted accordingly.
