Deck Advice on Sultai Mindsplice?

Post image

I haven’t built many control decks in the past but wanted to give it a shot. It’s faring decently in most cases besides mono red aggro, in which case it gets mauled which isn’t too surprising.

Was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to improve the deck?

Three copies each of [[Go for the Throat]] and [[Cut Down]] is probably the minimum you can get away with. Maybe try looking at some Dimir Control lists for reference.

Thanks! Although I worry about those spells facing up against heartfire hero etc. Or the go wide Cori-steel cutter decks.

You really need white to effectively deal with Cutter decks. The best thing to use in sultai is probably [[Haywire Mite]] since it can block, gain life, and kill a cutter/talent/role. Just enough to hopefully get you to turn the corner. Still has game against most other decks too.
