Special thanks to Gnurrgard for inspiring this project by sharing his knowledge on CCG theory and giving us continued feedback.
A deck type focused on disrupting the opponent's gameplan rather than generating lots of points itself.
Control’s tools include the removal of engines, removal of points, and manipulation of the opponent’s deck, hand, and graveyard with cards such as Alzur's Thunder or Assire var Anahid. While having an advantage in matchups against greedy decks, control decks are often weak against point-slam decks.
