This is my first deck so may not be best. So since seeing Ephara, god of the polis i have been wanting to build a deck around her mechanic and take advantage of it but not go overboard. Therefore i thought flash would be a good mechanic to use but with white blue not being an aggro color by nature i had a small pool of standard cards. The card i chose to run a full playset of is deputy of acquittals because i could return a lyev skyknight during my opponent's end phase so i could detain an annoying permanent they control for another turn. I could also abuse deputy of acquittals with a banisher priest if i notice the card i exiled previously is not as important as one that just entered. Also by playing acquittals i get to draw an extra card on my turn and the deputy keeps my devotion which is important for keeping ephara a creature. Cards such as aqueous form and gods willing are there to activate hero of iroas's heroic ability and keep it unblockable because by nature this is an aggressive deck. I was on the fence about ephara's enlightment but i decided to keep it at 2x because hero of iroas makes the casting only one white and one blue. This is especially important because the card will be cast multiple times.

In mh mayboard i have the ordeals because i know if they will be great even though i could cast them for one mana.

Thanks for reading my description and i am looking for all the help i can get with this deck i am hoping to be able to have a solid deck to use at the beginning of born of the gods and with white blue aggro being very uncommon i am hoping this will win alot of game 1s
