This deck (although it has had many changes) is one of my 'pet' decks. I originally saw it first during the UBR Tool Box days of Invasion and thought it'd be a good idea to try it but the three colors scared me. Ha, little did I know then that I would fall in love with three color decks. Also, up to that point I had played a lot of Blue/White Millstone control and was already familiar with the control-style of play. I had to give up life gain by dropping the white which gave me a real challenge in playing an agressive-control deck (does that make sense?). This particular deck has never faired well in a large multiplayer game though the times I have won with it was because of the foul-taste it left in players mouth when they'd lose a great creature to terminate or some other card and the player(s) would let me go until the deck finally sank its teeth into the game and by then it's over for most players. I have always contended that the right land makes this deck do well so that's why all the rare lands, I'd play more of them if I owned them
I have played this deck with a no creatures except for a single copy of Nether Spirit but I finally realized that it wasn't enough, especially if I played the deck in multiplayer format. I never took this deck to a tournament so the deck has no sideboard because it'll never be used for tournament play.
