I have to give you credit for Essence Depleter. I made some tests and the card is awesome. I already replaced Eldrazi Mimic for it. Thanks! I didn't get the time to play the last FNM but I'll try the next one. Later, I'll tell you about the results.

You're totally right. This deck must me more control in the beginning of the game. That's why we have so many early removals. This part of the deck is perfect.

I only use Bearer of Silence paying its ability cost. So it's more a removal than an early creature. Goes well when Kalitas in already on the battlefield.
Eldrazi Mimic is a huge doubt for me. Sometimes its super effective (copying Reallity Smasher with no creatures blocking). But it's also a terrible draw in the late game. So I really don't know.

I used to have a full set of Transgress the Mind. It's an awesome card. But it's not rare to buy it on the late game when my opponent has no cards in hand. And that's weird. So I'm trying 3 now, with 1 on the side board. I think it's ok. I'm becoming less dependent of hand disruption.

Tell me more about Essence Depleter. How do you use it? Is it worth?

Liliana it's a great card for sure. But I don't know how it would be on this deck. I don't see it going planeswalker so easily. Opponents will use theirs removals on Liliana instead of using it on Thought-Knot Seer, for example. It's good, of course. But I don't know if it's worth. If you test this please tell me about your results.

Hey, thanks for your feedback. The truth is I'm still making tests on this.
My first feelings is that the deck needs (somehow) to be more aggressive, hit harder/earlier.
And I don't know how to do it. I saw some people using Ruins of Oran-Rief but I don't think its the answer.
For me, the best part of Warping Wail is its versatility. I like the removal part a lot, but putting a scion to ramp or make a surprise block may also be very good. I used to have 4 Warping Wail on the main, but it depends a lot on how the Meta is.
Bear of Silence is a great removal, and a terrible creature. If you have some other removals in the deck, to keep the field always clean, it can almost work as a spot removal.

Dual Lands from Origins give me Black and Colorless, which are everything I need. But I use them most for colorless, not black. So I don't get damage really often. And thus I have 17 sources of Black mana (9 Swamps + 8 Duals) and 16 sources of Colorless (8 Duals + 4 Blighted Fen + 3 Sea Gate Wreackage + 1 Mirrorpool). Looks balanced for me. But I'm still testing.
