Ocelot Pride Midrange leans on Thoughtseize and Cabal Therapy to strip our hand, so Veil of Summer protects key cards and punishes their black spells with a free card. Prismatic Ending can exile problematic nonland permanents like Ocelot Pride itself or Ajani, Nacatl Pariah before it flips, since we can usually pay for multiple colors. Omniscience is too slow against a deck applying early pressure with Guide of Souls and Voice of Victory, and we trim one Atraxa, Grand Unifier since the games are faster and we want more interaction. The remaining Atraxa and full combo suite still let us close the game before their board gets out of hand.

Dimir Tempo leans on Thoughtseize and Daze to disrupt us while beating down with Moonshadow and Nethergoyf, so Veil of Summer protects our hand and key spells from their black and blue interaction, and it draws a card if they've cast a blue or black spell that turn. Consign to Memory can counter a colorless spell like Mishra's Bauble, but it won't hit colored spells like Bilbo, Thief in the Night, and it can't stop Kaito, Bane of Nightmares' loyalty abilities because those are activated abilities. Its main use here is countering triggered abilities, such as Orcish Bowmasters' triggers, and any colorless spells they bring from the board. We trim Omniscience and three copies of Atraxa, Grand Unifier since we want to be proactive and resolve our engine before Wasteland strands us. Force of Will and the full combo package remain central to beating their disruption.

This is the mirror, so the game plan shifts to protecting our own Show and Tell or Aluren from their Force of Will while disrupting theirs. Consign to Memory counters colorless spells and triggered abilities, letting us stop an opposing Acererak the Archlich trigger or the extra-turn trigger from a cast Emrakul, the Aeons Torn (the Emrakul spell itself can't be countered). Our own Veil of Summer protects our combo pieces from counterspells and punishes their blue/black spells. We trim Omniscience and Atraxa, Grand Unifier since they're slow in a mirror decided by who assembles Aluren or lands a hard-cast threat first. Force of Will and Veil of Summer remain our primary protection suite alongside the new interaction.
