Taking names and stealing brains

Grixis jeleva Extract tribal

How many games have you thought "man I wish they weren't playing Craterhoof Behemoth or Thassa's Oracle that card is so dumb".

What if they could never get it back?

Ruin a combo players day by exiling their key pieces, leave timmy crying because his only creatures left are elves or leave them with nothing but lands left in their deck!

Lock them out with the true jank! Neverending Torment , with Hive Mind and Witchbane Orb / Stranglehold or Opposition Agent makes EVERYBODY use the EPIC ability. They can only cast neverending torment for the rest of the game. Oh. And they can't target your deck!

we also run the classic Hive Mind pact combos to help kill our opponents if they're not part of the #Grixis Gang. Pact of Negation Pact of the Titan Slaughter Pact

Or how about comboing hivemind with a cheeky little bit of Doomsday forcing your opponents to make 5 card piles and losing half their life?

Any of this with an Opposition Agent and you'll be laughing maniacally like a good slave to bolas should.

Damnation or Toxic Deluge coupled with Bitter Ordeal makes for a great time. Or perhaps Nightmare Incursion with an Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth .

How about a straight up Denying Wind ?

Exiled all of your opponents win conditions and combos? Start going for their lands and then drop an Oblivion Sower

Oh yeah, and that Shadowborn Apostle / Relentless Rats player? Cast an Infinite Obliteration . They're done. Game over.

You could also just steal their best cards with Gonti, Lord of Luxury , Aquire, Bribery , Knowledge Exploitation , Thada Adel, Acquisitor , Praetor's Grasp , or Eternal Dominion as well as stealing their best instant and sorceries with our commander.

EDIT: Decided to throw in Thousand-Year Storm and Eye of the Storm as hive mind adjacent/redundancy just to give our search effects a little more oomph and help out if Jeleva accidentally exiles one of the others.

FINALLY FUN DOOMSDAY PILES

Laboratory Maniac plus a Wheel of Fortune

Academy Ruins and Jester's Cap or Grinning Totem

Anything with a Mirror of Fate and some draw spells to assemble any combo you like.

Predict to mill the top card and draw 2 works fun with the other top deck manipulation in Brainstorm , Ponder and Sensei's Divining Top . But also lets you put big spells like Mnemonic Deluge and Enter the Infinite into the graveyard to recast with Spelltwine or Mizzix's Mastery .

Ultimate magic Christmas land is playing an epic spell like Eternal Dominion or Neverending Torment with a Thousand-Year Storm or Strionic Resonator out, MULTIPLE EPIC TRIGGERS!

And of course my favourite way to eliminate a player from magic. If you manage to Hive Mind with Doomsday then cast Ashiok, Dream Render exiling their top 4 cards and graveyard, then casting Extract for the final card in their deck. You've managed to exile everything.

Also I know that the land count is quite low, ideally to prevent whiffs from jeleva's ETB.
