Notes
 
So many great cards I'd love for this deck, but that are too expensive.  Glimpse the Unthinkable, Snapcaster Mage, Fetches, maybe Sword of Body and Mind.

    Extract too.

    Expensive, but Extirpate as another shuffle and thinning option.

      I like Extirpate, but Surgical Extraction seems better to me - it can get countered, but it can also be "free" so that's not bad.

      A bit slow or don't do enough for a card I think.  I think racing is better than control, or at least cheaper in terms of avoiding pricey control stuff like a 3-color mana base, cryptic command, remand, etc.


      Ideally, something more like this with some fetches, because it would be so much faster.  I've got most of it, but Glimpses are pricey and fetches are outrageous.
