I wanted to share my sucess with turns lately. I used to play U-R turns, but I switched to Bant lately. I play only online, cause I don't have any time to play real life Magic unfortunately.
I played a lot of friendly modern league to test the decklist. I had around 62% match win rate over approx 15 leagues even when counting the firsts leagues with subpar brew. With the new set release, I tested Jace, Wielder of Mysteries instead of Gideon Jura (I needed a fast win condition, cause I timed out sometimes). I will never go back to Gideon
I played 4 Competitive league with it so far. I Went 4-1, 3-2, 3-2 and 2-3 against a wide variety of decks. Note: One match in the second league I lost timed out by litteraly 1 seconds I lost with a lethal Blue Sun's Zenith on the stack

Anyway, I found this deck very good. With T1 Arbor Elf and T2 Utopia Sprawl, you can have a T2 Wilderness Reclamation or T2 Jace, the Mind Sculptor or T2 Search for Azcanta + Remand. The deck can also take the control route with Remand and Cryptic Command. By the way, the two ''best combo'' in this deck is Wilderness Reclamation into Cryptic Command and Wilderness Reclamation into Sphinx's Revelation .
I find this deck pretty different from Taking Turns Decks, it is more a control Bant Wilderness Reclamation deck with a taking turns combo in it.
Edit:
Did 2 two more competitive league tonight. Went 3-2 and 4-1. This deck is really good and I love playing it
