My take on Brian Braun-Duins Bant Walkers. For those of you unfamiliar with the deck it's basically U/W control splashing green for Kiora, the Crashing Wave because she is absolutely worth splashing an extra color for. She is a very proactive card because she can lock down Stormbreath Dragon and Blood Baron of Vizkopa with her +1. She is also only four turns away from changing your board into an army of 9/9 Krakens! If you don't reach her ultimate who cares? You've just stalled your opponent for two or three turns to get out a massive Sphinx's Revelation or an Elspeth, Sun's Champion to stabilize the board.

27 lands is a must because you're running 10 scrylands to dig for answers.

I need help with the sideboard, I had some trouble against Mono Blue devotion last night so I am tempted to run 4 Revoke Existence between the main board and the side to get rid of those D-Spheres and gods but Soul Tithe may be helpful for those planeswalkers.. Help me out!

I do like BBD's side for this with 4x Archangel of Thune and 3x Brimaz, King of Oreskos. Maybe I can go that route but those are some serious money cards.
