Basically it's your typical UW heroic but with my version that won a fnm 4th then 2nd It's not perfect but It's what I've been running for a bit now and have the match ups a bit more understandable. I also run some different cards than are probably seen for not so obvious reasons. -Deck Tech- First will start with Tiagam Strike, 4 mana (1U 3C) for unblockable +2 att, now this combined with a turn 3 fabled hero can be a pretty powerful 10 damage swing turn 4 that can't be blocked, against certain decks like jeskai, this basically can win the game turn 5 because of the damage output, it's probably not ran by a lot of people based on it costing 4 mana which curves out a heroic deck usually and tapping out can be painful to some people as they want gods willing mana open. I also side board 4 negates 4 radiant purges and 2 incase in ice as well as 2 narsets all for the control match ups, because negating a planeswalker or spell without having gods willing can be a huge tempo swing even without getting heroic triggers all the time. I also run Radiant Purge side board for the same reason, killing mantis riders, dragonlords and other powerful multi-colored creatures for 2 mana is a huge swing in tempo for me, and generally kills off most creatures that would be too tough to deal with. Narsets are mostly against the UB control match ups or Espur control match ups as having them burn a hero's downfall or counter spell on her rather than something else can be effective as getting the ult can shut someone down (have won a set of 2/3 because narset during an fnm). I'm sure most of the rest of the deck makes sense for people, aside from not running 2 more of each ordeals. It's a standard UW heroic I take to fnm and can has went 3-1 lately. Would appreciate feedback about side board help or even match up thoughts as we transition into origins!
