My Esper Control build utilizes Bolas Citadel and life gain to cast a chain of spells. The combo of Narset, Parter of Veils and Emergency Powers is effectively rendering them useless by locking their draw to just 1 card instead of a fresh hand. Mass removal keeps the board clear of creatures while the Planeswalker's keep the game moving for you, but not for them.
