Did you read that Deck Name correctly? Damn right! I really was inspired to build this deck by the unique ability on .
Let's check this out. "1WU, [tap], Discard a legendary card: Draw two cards. Niambi is what is going to fuel your graveyard with bombs like Sephara, Sky's Blade and Kenrith, the Returned King, while still providing early game interaction.
Early game, focus on getting your cards with Omen of the Sea, Fblthp, the Lost, or ramping with The Birth of Meletis. Stop any scary attackers with Sky Tether.
Mid game, focus on either fun value or countermagic. Flash in Niambi to save a creature and gain some life, or use Barrin, Tolarian Archmage to bounce Fblthp back and get extra value. If things are looking grim, hold up countermagic to gain life and prevent more threats, and then hit 'em with Shatter the Sky
Late game, here comes the fun! Elspeth Conquerers Death (ECD) is going to be your ticket out of the Underworld. Use this to remove an annoying permanent, and start setting your board up or holding countermagic. The second chapter is helpful here because them interacting with you will cost them more, making a Turn 6 Absorb quite effective, as they usually don't have mana for a second spell after paying the additional 2 from ECD. Third chapter, bring out Sephara or Kenrith.
Strengths: This deck does well against other durdely decks, because you aren't casting spells to draw cards or re-animate. Against other control decks, you reign supreme.
Weaknesses: Aggro. You have Niambi to gain life, but there is a learning curve on using her (consider her a Rescue from Dominaria with added value).
Sideboarding Tips: The top half of the sideboard is against control decks to ensure that your ECD or hard-cast Kenriths are landing. The bottom half will ensure aggro doesn't hurt you!
Rotation Tips: Rotation will definitely take some important bites out of the deck. Fblthp, the Lost is a critical card believe it or not, and the 3-drop countermagic in Absorb and Sinister Sabotage will also being going (although I'm more than certain 3 drop counter magic will exist in any format)
Full Disclosure: Is this control? Or is it really jank...you tell me!
