My new take on 4 colour unburial rites. I heard a lot of talk about Aetherling being a 1-of in Esper, and how it's such a strong card with such a high mana cost. Well, despite everyone's default instinct being to try and shove it in an esper deck, I went for unburial rites - my go-to shell for casting big ass nasties to tear your opponents to pieces before the scheduled time!

Here's my take on it. I tested it out tonight for a good couple of hours and didn't lose a game. It works extremely well and in my opinion is a step ahead of the current meta-game. The sin collectors are a fantastic addition to remove problematic spells such as Dissipates, Pithing Needles, Slaughter Games and any of the few options that could exile/negate the power of the AEtherling . He's an insane powerhouse and it's possible to get him out on turn 3. If you cast him without leaving any blue mana open and he dies, well, bring him right back!

Hard cast him / Unburial Rites him, flashback rites and he'll eventually stick on that board like glue while your opponent feebly accepts his fate! I've tailored the mana base to cater for him quite effectively, and the Farseeks help to ensure colours aren't a problem.

Always happy to hear feedback and what you guys think! :)
