So this is just me messing around with my UW Devotion deck by adding a 3rd color. First, let's try out adding Green. Any tips are greatly appreciated.

Here's some of the cool toys we get by adding Green to the old deck:

Ajani, Mentor of Heroes: The card is just amazing, & basically the only reason I considered adding Green to the deck. He's either a boon for the guys we already have in play, or draws us more dudes to play. We can also build up counters on a Mutavault, turning it into a much cheaper Raging Ravine, & lastly, he adds 1 devotion to white, which works with both Ephara, God of the Polis & Heliod, God of the Sun.

Collective Blessing: Let me make this very clear: I love this card with a passion & will jam in almost any deck I can, so I am a little biased in my opinion of it. That being said, a permanent +3/+3 on all your creatures is insane. It can help your guys dodge Bile Blight, Mizzium Mortars, Anger of the Gods, & works overtime with Ajani, Mentor of Heroes to buff your creatures power up to insane levels. At 6 mana, it's perfectly costed to be relevant, but just high enough that 1 should be fine. We won't draw it all the time, but when we do, it will -hopefully- be explosive.

Mistcutter Hydra: A sweet mana sink against MUD & control. Can end games pretty quickly, & we can sometimes snipe games with it if they don't expect it & tap out to Verdict our board away or just slamming it after a Master of Waves & gaining a huge lead in the race.
