Control decks try to get neutralize opponent's threat early on, gain control on the midgame thanks to card advantage, then squeeze you like a lemon.

The infamous deck made notorious by Brian Weissman on usenet in 1995. It is a U/W “permission” deck splashing other colours

• Jayemdae Tome (“book”) for card advantage
• blue for counterspells and power cards
• white for removal
• a splash of black for Demonic Tutor and Mind Twist, green for Regrowth, and red for Fireball

Still the bogeyman of the format…
