thought id just post my list here for some feedback
I took inspiration from the recent success of the BUG midrange/control deck that has been doing well, but because I dont want to get a playset of Gofys, decided to replace the green with white. Souls / Tarpits / Tasigur are the finishers, with white giving Path, and Esper Charm.
Ashiok is so fun to play with and amazing, even if I dont hit a creature, milling 6 cards is just great. Getting rid of threats, lands, always have had good value from him
The 1 of Narset is just for testing, it looks like great value with cards like Esper Charm, Path, Cryptic, and souls (the dream) but at cmc4 im thinking its too slow for modern. This will probably become the 3rd Ashiok.
2 Cliques help with some beatdowns and further disruption. I was thinking of going with Geist, but have preferred to stay at instant speed
Played against a variety of decks and done pretty well, Esper Charm is a great card to get further gas and as mentioned Ashiok is just fun to play with.
Ive really enjoyed playing this deck, as you can hold the board with early disruption/counters, and then try and take over with souls and tarpits
