Quote from Doozy »Why do you dislike Blue Jund? I feel like it could be the best way to play a Grixis control deck right now.
Midrange classic Jund is not at its best right now why would we imitate a deck not doing well? Its a step back not forward. I think Cryptic Command is our biggest advantage why would we toss it aside? We can outgrind a ton of decks in modern from aggro, control, midrange, tempo, and even combo due to the engine of Lightning bolt, Snapcaster Mage, Kolaghan's Command, Cryptic Command. Our biggest issue is GY hate which we can either hate via EE or Echoing Truth if we can't counter it. I'm a big supporter of trying to figure out a good suite of counters we would universally accept as other then x cryptic and x spell snare we all typically use something different. Trying to figure out a less painful manabase would be a huge help for newer players of grixis control or those who fight a lot of aggro decks. Would also be a great idea for someone new to take over the primer and restructure it to better suit a primer to get more people into it as currently its well very outdated and unhelpful. Look at the jund primer compaired to ours and see how insightful it is. Even some decks which are new have better primers then ours with a better information. Which for a control deck is bad we should have it updated with matchups, tips and tricks, card options, auto includes, bare skeleton list.
Sorry if its a bit random im out with the family at the car show.
EDIT: If anything needs and explanation feel free to ask and when I get home I will writ out my thought as to why.
@ Wolf Julio: im running 4 bolts 2 push, 2 terminates, and 1 anger of the gods. If I saw more eldrazitron or deaths shadow in my meta I would probably play 2-3 bolts, 2-3 push, 4 terminate. With a 2/3 or 3/2 splits with bolt and push. I love anger main as it hoses aggro and various CoCo decks pretty badly.

Tried adding some more elements. I really liked the idea of putting Stirrings instead of eye. Also, I tried changing Endless One for World Breaker since, even though he isn't part of the stock list, he's literally a green spaghetti monster with masterpiece Hallowed Fountain in the background. Can't bant much more.
