Fair points.

For cards that are both removal and counters, Drown is by far the best unfortunately. Some other ones are:

Dimir Charm (would be really good if the last mode let you put one into your hand, might be an ok sideboard card since it can counter treasure cruise)

Silumgar's Command (very versatile card but the 5 cmc is rough, wish it were 4 cmc)

Decisive Denial (Pretty meh here imo unless you have a Tasigur or Kroxa down, but being able to be used as a negate can be nice if you have no fatties)

Izzet Charm (can also help fill your yard, seems solid)

There are some other ones like Sublime Epiphany and Quandrix Command but those seem bad here.

I also have the deck and am thinking about upgrading it. Your curve is a bit off. You want more 3 CMC cards, and cut down on higher CMC costs since you're not in green and ramping is not too easy to achieve. Though you have a decent amount of ramp with the artifacts.

Some things I would consider changing:

I think that's all I can think of, hope it helps :)

zapyourtumor thanks for your suggestions! So Sultai Charm is a bit too colorintensive for what it does, albeit being versatile. Windgrace's Judgment I don't have, and Silumgar's Command I will need to try. The other cards are being played, I just tend to mix them up. Force of Despair for example is a supernice card and already has a home in my "All Nicol Bolas flavor" deck. Thanks again and have a nice day :)

Some controlly card suggestions: Sultai Charm (noice and versatile, plus it fits flavor), Miscast, Putrefy, Windgrace's Judgment, Force of Despair, Silumgar's Command (how could you not have this bad boy??), Ultimate Price (fits theme but not quite as good in edh)

I just started updating this again. I would consider adding some Glimpse the Unthinkable to it, and maybe cut out the Thada Adel, Acquisitor. Silumgar's Command is a big maybe. I dunno. I could also add Sadistic Sacrament or up the number of Surgical Extraction involved.

hi just spotted this list, was running a similar list for a while, even top3 a few fnm with it Snow Esper Control (budget) i highly recommend more flash and instant speed creatures such as, gearhulk into a guile, fact, Silumgar's Command(this card was the secret to the decks success, having kill and plainswalker with -3 or bounce anything was most often the used mods) this package gave the deck a lot more flexibility and stopping power and many meta decks are no longer built to repel more old fashioned esper draw go.

honestly id drop inquisition, as its 1-1 and you just boardwipe/counter there early threats, maybe if you were leaning hard on Drown in the Loch (also very good card and i do recommend)

i may have to do a major rethink in my own build now as astrolabe was a big part of the deck, (marit lages slumber was normally a turn 7-8 thread and scry-draw from a astrolabe with a slumber on the field was really strong, Silumgar's Command was able to bounce it for value and as long as i did not run double same colored mana i was able to lean very heavily into snow basics without much of a penalty, turn three -5 from dead of winter is going to be much rarer as well)
