So one of the shops I go to is having a "pro tour mirror" where we watch the live stream and play block, draft, block and it sounds really fun. I play control in standard and already have most of the cards. I had a few questions though and since mtgo is where block is mostly played, and since journey lists havent come back from mtgogoldfish yet, i've not seen lists with the new cards. Here is my deck:
Do I want 2 Banishing Light and 4 Gild or 2 Gild and 4 Banishing Light? Light seems more powerful but gild lets me ramp into Elspeth a turn sooner. Also, there is much more enchantment removal out there but I know my curve has lots of 3cmc cards already. This makes me think I dont want Read the Bones. I have Divination and 12 scry lands. I dont think I want mana confluence.
what you want is silence the believers over gild and font over divination. Here is a list i monied with the other day (http://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/232963). Personally, I think esper is not in a good position with the slew of aggro decks filling mtgo right now. But the ram gives it some incremental life gain which is desperately needs. I'd also have 2 drowns main and 2 side if your playing mtgo right now.
