Ok so I have come to several realizations... white red knights didnt get there... BACK TO ESPER WE GO!!! I spent a lot of time on this deck and would love any criticism. However if anyone says "why not go blue white or blue black control, why try to do both" Im gonna jump through the computer and punch u in the face... anyways heres the decklist
2 Celestial Colonnade
3 Contagion Clasp
1 Contagion Engine
1 Creeping Tar Pit
3 Darkslick Shores
2 Day of Judgment
2 Drowned Catacomb
3 Everflowing Chalice
3 Gideon Jura
4 Glacial Fortress
1 Grave Titan
2 Inquisition of Kozilek
3 Jace, the Mind Sculptor
4 Mana Leak
4 Marsh Flats
3 Plains
3 Preordain
3 Seachrome Coast
3 Spell Pierce
4 Sphere of the Suns
2 Swamp
2 Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas
2 Tumble Magnet
1 Wurmcoil Engine
And the sideboard....
2 Black Sun's Zenith
2 Day of Judgment
1 Inquisition of Kozilek
1 Memoricide
1 Spell Pierce
4 Spreading Seas
4 Vampire Hexmage
With the 7 ramp artifacts, its meant to consistantly get out my 4 drops turn 3 and 5 drops turn 4 (turn 6 plays out turn 5 would be nice but more of the other drops). It also proliferates the walkers, and artifacts with a sideboard thats great against the current standard format... ok guys have at it...

also I am considering leonin arbitor instead of spreading seas... cuts off blue white's squadrin hawk/ stoneforge it makes eldrazi/valkut cry, and not to mention makes fetches go, o... no land I guess (including me).

I actually like this build although I fear it will do a lot of things well and nothing great. Only way to know is to play test.
That being said, control sucks. :-)

I feel like the lux cannon is a little slow... and you might be better off with another sphere of the suns... Also if you want to continue the artifact theme another tezzeret with some inkmoth nexus might be good... As making a 5/5 infect flier is sweet

I personally feel the most underrated card in Standard/Type 2 right now is Steel Hellkite. It has fire-breathing, blows up permanants and its a 5/5 body. The only drawback is you blow up your own stuff, but who cares. He's a freaking Ratchet Bomb with wings...c'mon people, show him some love!
Creatures that worry me...Steel Hellkite, Wurmcoil Engine, Grave Titan and even Baneslayer Angel (although nobody seems to play him anymore). These guys worry me so much that I typically have mainboard or sideboard weapons just for them.
I'm glad to see someone put him mainboard in a deck...he's a real threat.

it doesnt blow up your own stuff justin, only perminants who were dealth damage by steel hellkite. But thank you I really appreciate it. And Deo, Thank you I actually had it main board in another version but Zenith was so heavy on black along with hexmage, it is really hard with the mana base. I am making a version that is not so heavy on the mana base so I will be putting that in. Thanks man.
