I know, I know, you've probably never seen a working 5 color control deck, but I have managed to build one. I didn't mean for it to even be a control deck, but it just turned out that way... Anyway, I built this deck in Magic Workshop, since there is absolutely no way I could build something like this in real life (take a look at the 4 Black Lotus, for example). Anyway, here it is: 7 Forest4 Bringer of the Green Dawn2 Slate of Ancestry4 Black Lotus4 Mox Emerald4 Mox Jet4 Mox Pearl4 Mox Ruby4 Mox Sapphire4 Lotus Blossom4 Demonic Tutor1 Feldon's Cane4 Howling Mine3 Words of War3 Words of Wilding3 Words of Worship1 Planar PortalThe original idea of the deck was that I would get lots of creature tokens out, then use Slate of Ancestry to draw lots of cards, but instead use the ability that's on Words of War to deal big damage. However, it's worked out differently. If I get in a Howling Mine or two with any of the Words cards, especially Words of War, I suddenly have a control deck, since I use war to destroy any creatures my opponent puts out. Not to mention, Bringer of the Green Dawn has proven very useful. Anyway, does anyone have any comments or suggestions?

I think you could benefit from some counterspell ability. I'd say Power Leak, Condescend, Override and maybe straight up Counterspell in place of the Moxes for colors you don't need. And since you're not worried about cost (obviously), throw in a Timetwister or two for massive draw ability.
