Dimir Energy Control

Standard UB (Dimir)

Count_Porplexorus


This is a Blue/Black control deck that is based on ramping up energy. It plays very similarly to a normal control deck (Hand attack with Harsh Scrutiny or Collective Brutality, counter spells with Insidious Will, kill things with Die Young, draw cards with Live Fast or Glimmer of Genius ), while eventually building up to either steal a huge creature with Confiscation Coup, get out an Aethersquall Ancient or a Demon of Dark Schemes and start beating, or get out an Aetherworks Marvel or a Dynavolt Tower and start to either build up board presence of kill your opponent with all of the energy you have stored up. Aether Theorist is there as an energy resource, and can also help you ensure your topdecks will be gas. Janjeet Sentry provides a similar effect, and just keeps things tapped down. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated! (Especially ideas for a sideboard, as I don't really know what good sideboard cards are in standard right now).

Lastly, would Torrential Gearhulk be good in this deck?
