Inspired by Heroic Hoplites Tournament Deck, this is my attempt at using/abusing the Hidden Strings + Nivmagus Elemental combo, along side heroic blue/white aggro. This is a VERY fast deck capable of turn 4/5 wins with the perfect hand.

The deck functions by casting spells targeting heroic creatures, causing the triggers but exiling the spell to Nivmagus Elemental while on the stack (before the card effect resolves but after the spell has "entered the battlefield".

See Heroic Hoplites Tournament Deck for a full rundown of the rulings and combos. regards to the creator of this deck list.
