As for the contents of that deck, the choices are really up to the individual
Still, this was banned in Modern in 2023, so it's not too surprising to see it banned in Standard, too
For over a year control decks got to be at or near the top of Standard, and without Mirari's Wake it is doubtful they would have seen much play at all
Even if it doesnt get close to this mark somehow, the drops other reprint definitely doesnt disappoint
Even if it doesn't survive a full turn cycle, it typically draws you six to eight cards--and if you manage to protect it, Consecrated Sphinx can easily win the game
While this one is less easy to loop with (not being a creature until Stationed), dont forget that Touch the Spirit Realm and Teleportation Circle can both reset this when its still just an artifact
