This is an Esper spin on the classic Tier 1 Blue/White control deck. I like the value that black adds, with cards like Inquisition of Kozilek , Fatal Push , and Collective Brutality .

The win-con is Kaya, Orzhov Usurper . By repeatedly exiling cards, whether on the field or in the graveyard, using her ultimate ability allows you to drain a player for most, if not all of their life.

This deck is very fun, interactive, and consistent! It's only in its second draft, so suggestions are appreciated!
