Eldritch Moon Preview: UX control



Unless I misread Escalate, this is a perfect card for control deck.


Now we have an Unsummon with another option.

Now we have a good mana dork. Enabling turn 3 Languish or turn 5 Descend upon the Sinful, maybe UB or UW control will return to the mainstream.


The problematic "uncounterable" Ulamog exiling effect is solved.

It seems to me that Esper or UB or UW will earn a place in the new standard.

10 Creatures
4 Jace, Vryn's Prodigy  / 4 Curious Homunculus
4 Dragonlord Ojutai
2 Dragonlord Silumgar

12 Removals
4 Languish
3 Ruinous Path
2 Foul-Tongue Invocation
2 Anguished Unmaking
1 Silumgar's Command


11 counters 
4 Clash of Wills
4 Silumgar's Scorn
2 Summary Dismissal
1 Ojutai's Command

4 Planeswalkers
2 Jace, Unraveler of Secrets
2 Liliana, the Last Hope

The missing link is a good card draw spell. Current list uses Read the Bone. I think there will be a better draw spell in the new set. Let's wait.

Of course, Ice Age was a fun deck, weakness never harms the entertaining level of cards. Starfield of Nyx  is an interesting one. It goes perfectly into enchantment decks evolved during late Theros Standard. Win conditions: 1. Bring Chromanticore into play from grave. 2. Attack with animated enchatments for winning. 3. Bring Whip of Erebos into play and reanimate Hornet Queen. 4. Bring Sigil of the Empty Throne into play 5. Assault Formation + high toughness creatures Removals: End Hostility Banishing Light     Doomwake Giant Defense: Nyx-Fleece Ram Courser of Kruphix Card Advantages: Ephara, God of the Polis Commune with the Gods Satyr Wayfinder Eidolon of Blossoms Gather the Pack Combos: Starfield of Nyx  + everything /  Font of Vigor Ephara, God...
