@22: Esper Stole those colors. This predates that set by quite a bit...unless you're trolling. Then yes, Esper is artifacts.

Not to be confused with Zur an Enchanter.

I started hating this card after I saw this one on my opponents EDH-general...

I use this in EDH and it very rarey fails me. The main problem you're going to face with this deck is removal, but there are ways around that; Robe of Mirrors or even Angelic Renewal for Wrath of God-like cards. In terms of your own removal, you can search for Oblivion Ring, Pacifism, Journey to Nowhere and Seal of Doom with Zur.
To protect your life, I mainly use Ghostly Prison or Island Sanctuary (it doesn't matter if you're not drawing, as most cards will be found by Zur). I also use Soul Barrier to slow opponets down a bit/do some shocking.
Finally, you want a good win condition. I usually use something like Luminarch Ascension or make Zur more offensive with Steel of the Godhead. (If any important enchantments are destroyed, I can ... (see all)

Thats funny... every time I see Zur they go for
Necropotence or Phyrexian arena
Solitary Confinement
Greater Auramancy
and Vanishing on Zur.
Its really quite irritating.

Possibly one of the best EDH generals of all time.

Really needs to be banned in EDH. Even with the french list he's still obnoxious (assuming they're running a generic blue control deck, with undermine / charm slapped in). Counter counter counter, Zur, counter your removal spell, swing, bust out an answer. 1v1, I mean.

My typical EDH games with Zur go like this, assuming I get to attack with him first:
Turn 1: Pacificy his commander
Turn 2: totem armor
Turn 3: Underworld Dreams
Turn 4: Let's be honest, I've pretty much won by now.
I just wish I had an invulnerability. I also stuck Lost Auramancers in there. Maybe I should add Eldrazi Con***ion so when they die I can stick it on Zur.
