Cruel control with a focus on wrecking my opponents' hands.

Win conditions: Combo 1 Brain Freeze + Lion's Eye Diamond + Underworld Breach to mill opponents. Combo 2 Chain of Smog + Professor Onyx for infinite magecraft damage. Alternatively, Pox twice then beat down with Kroxa, Titan of Death's Hunger or just play control, keep the board clear and use the wincon on Nicol Bolas, Dragon-God.

Notable exclusions: Thassa's Oracle + Tainted Pact + Demonic Consultation I don't run this combo because Thassa's Oracle is useless by itself. Mystic Remora and Rhystic Study aren't worth the heat and can't be flashed back with Kess, Dissident Mage. Mana Crypt, Sol Ring, etc. colorless mana doesn't cast much in this deck and I'm trying to control, not turbo. Pact of Negation because I don't ramp into 5 mana easily. Ad Nauseam and Toxic Deluge because I can't afford to pay the life in long games and because they are awkward/unlikely to flashback.

+1 if you think this deck would do well in your cEDH meta. Comments and suggestions please!
