Some men just want to watch the world burn. James wants to watch it drown in the tears of his enemies.

Also, if you're looking for a spell that transmutes into Curse of the Bloody Tome, Drift of Phantasms is what you're looking for. Perplex would work too, but it's also just a bad card.

I could tune this more now that I have a better grip on the format. Rewind sucks for example, Exclude is absurd. Returned Phalanx is unplayable with Innocent Blood etc

Transmute for Curse, Oona's Grace or Exclude is kinda sweet.

Exclude is absurd in the format.

Yeah, it's phenomenal. I'm even running it in faerie aggo's board (that being said the board is transforming it into control).

thanks to nbw for the sig.
You do need to try to gay it up a little more.

You're like the least gay member of this clan.

And that's counting the fact that you voluntarily have sex with men.

[deck]Pauper UB Control[/deck]
Creatures

4 Mulldrifter
4 Sea Gate Oracle

Instants
4 Counterspell
4 Deprive
4 Diabolic Edict
1 Disfigure
1 Dispel
1 Ghostly Flicker
1 Grim Harvest
3 Mystical Teachings
1 Oona's Grace
1 Repeal
4 Think Twice

Sorceries
4 Preordain

Lands
1 Bojuka Bog
4 Dimir Aqueduct
4 Dimir Guildgate
10 Island
4 Swamp
[/deck]

So, I am running Teachings package for:
- countermagic
- diabolic edict
- disfigure
- ghostly flicker
- oona's grace
- repeal
- think twice

That's a lot of cool plays I think.

Instead of Sea Gate Oracle, I could run Trinket Mage and include that package as well, for double tutors; then running 4 of each artifact land so that they have plenty of targets going long; this would give me some great sideboard options too, although overall, I think SGO is
the better card; Trinket Mage trades with more (that's a good thing) and gives you options like Sylvok Lifestaff and Nihil Spellbomb.

Probably true, just remember that you can only sink black mana into him.

did not even know that was a thing, but that is a scary thing. Must acquire 5, 1 for commander, 4 for pauper.

It's priceless to watch people play the whole game out, thinking they have a chance at winning, while their library thins by 3 cards per turn and I keep 3+ counterspells in hand.
