This is my take on Esper Control. I've managed to tie for first place on my second attempt at playing this deck. The mirror is what hurt me.

Draw spells: Painful Truths is a perfect way to get ahead, it's a miniature Dig Through Time.

Removal: Ultimate Price Utter End Foul-Tongue Invocation Ruinous Path . All of these are amazing.

Board Wipes: Crux of Fate Destroy all dragons or destroy all non-dragons and let my dragons win.

Counters: Silumgar's Scorn one of the best cards in the deck. A turn 2 counter, a late game counter. Just an amazing counter! Scatter to the Winds good stuff man. Good stuff.

Creatures: Dragonlord Ojutai 4 of because it's amazing. Dragonlord Silumgar is great.

Feel free to give any and all suggestions! I'd love to hear everyone's opinions. This is my first control deck and I would love some input!
