Eldritch Moon Standard UB Control

When Wizards are pushing creatures, I believe in Liliana.

The Deck:

Creatures:
Emrakul, the Promised End 1
Dragonlord Silumgar 1
Jace, Vryn's Prodigy 2

Draws:
Press for Answers 4
Read the Bones 3

Counters:
Scatter to the Winds 3

Removals:
Liliana, the Last Hope 4
Ultimate Price 4
Languish 4
Ruinous Path 3
To the Slaughter 2

Others:
From Under the Floorboards 1
Welcome to the Fold 1
Startled Awake 1


Lands:
Geier Reach Sanitarium 2
Sunken Hollow 4
Choked Estuary 4
Island 8
Swamp 8

A control deck light in creatures may not be the best place for Liliana, but she can stabilise small creatures til you cast Languish in early stage.

Ideal play vs aggros:

Turn 2: Ultimate Price on any 2 drops or three drops with 3 attack(Lambholt Pacifist, Tireless Tracker, Eldrazi Displacer)
Turn 3: Liliana's -2/-1 on Thraben Inspector/Duskwatch Recruiter/Thalia's Lieutenant/Sylvan Advocate.
Turn 4: Ruinous Path a Gideon.
Turn 5: Press for Answers or Read the Bones.
Turn 6: Before their Advocate becomes 4/5, Languish once.

Late game:
Use Liliana's -2 to bring back Jace, then clear the board again with Languish.

GWx Starfield of Nyx Deck

People say Magic Origins is a down-graded set. To me, It feels more like Ice Age then Khans in the variety of card functions and types. 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.

Magic Origins preview

1. Avarcious Dragon With four mana 4/4 flying - the new standard for usable dragons - Avaricious Dragon give you one more card per turn but force you to discard you hand at the end of turn. It's actually a walking  Grafted Skullcap. What is Grafted Skullcap? you've never heard of it? Right, that's because it's never been used in serious decks since it first appeared in Urza's Saga set 17 years ago. I don't think this dragon will not be more active than Thunderbreak Regent in competitive decks after rotation. Look at the visage of the guy wearing it. Still, I made a deck around it: GR reanimates Creatures: 4 Deathmist Raptor 4 Den Protector 4 Flamewake Phoenix 4 Ashcloud Phoenix 4 Avaricious Dragon  Others: whatever you want (I am not quite in the mode right now) Some lands 2. Starfield of Nyx At the beginning of your upkeep, you may return target enchantment card from your  graveyard to the battlefield. As long as you contr...
