---

Play lots of instants that take over the game. Between replaying cards from your graveyard and drawing lots of extra cards, you can pretty well stop a lot of opponents from being able to get very far.

First half of the game: Ramp up, get Kess out, counter key spells. Second half: Keep the countering spells and card advantage rolling as much as possible. Look for opportunities to blow your opponents out, such as Notion Thief or Narset, Parter of Veils with any wheel or timetwister effect, or just do something like Demonic Consultation with Jace, Wielder of Mysteries or Laboratory Maniac and just win outright. There are a lot of other great things this deck can do, and if you draw enough cards, you should be able to come up with some way to win, as long as you keep countering your opponent's threats.

You should play this deck if: You like winning. You like instants. You like control. You like extra cards.
