Best control

• Answer threats efficiently with removal such as Swords to Plowshares, Path to Exile, Assassin’s Trophy, and board wipes like Wrath of God, Damn, Sunfall, and Settle the Wreckage
• Disrupt graveyard and recursion strategies with Rest in Peace, Leyline of the Void, Nihil Spellbomb, and Soul-Guide Lantern
• Generate long-game advantage through Mystic Remora, Memory Deluge, Fact or Fiction, Smothering Tithe, and The One Ring
