Stop, don't touch me here, this is my no-no sphere!

Behold the power of Fran-- I mean America, the only 3-color combination that can use both Chain to the rocks and Detention Sphere at the same time!

This deck revolves around Stormbreath, Heliod, Aurelia and little cutie tokens working together to pwn noobs. Heliod usually has more than enough devotion to become a creature, which can be bad but is mostly good. His little dudes pump Sphere of Safety, so that's super cool for when you can't seem to draw a second sphere. The real power behind this deck, however, is the variation in win-cons. All of the creatures can kill your opponent. Aurelia also works VERY nicely with stormbreath, swinging 14 on one turn. She works well with anyone, really, especially the tokens from Assemble the Legion.

In the sideboard, we run the obligatory celestial flares and rest in peaces to kill green stuff (mainly hexproof). Negate, counterflux, and silence go in against control decks to protect your wincons, although silence also works for Savage Summoning decks because you can just cast it in response to savage summoning and then they can't cast the creature. Blind Obedience for RDW.

MTG American Miranda Rights:

"You have the right to retain Silence. Any spell I cast can and will be used against you in a field of battle. You have the right to have a judge present during any Heliod Safety Squad beatdown. If you cannot afford a judge, a surrender will be appointed to you at the cost of your dignity. Do you understand the stipulations placed henceforth?"
