Essentially, from my experience with the deck, early threats are what really does Caw-Blade over. The U/W versions are mainly not playing as many Day of Judgment s as they used too, so by using things like Thrun, the Last Troll and your own swords you can get an early advantage.

No good swords, just Sword of Vengeance and Argentum Armor as the equipments. but Thrun, the Last Troll is amazing

tough call, fighting "the caw" is a bit of a doozey even if you have your own caw. youd have to be able to break their equipment and their Stoneforge Mystic s. Even then, you got Mana Leak to worry about amongst the angels other things. jace's and stoneforge's ban definitely eases things up, though its a shame with such good cards banned. id've thought your best bet was a R/W (burning creatures and planeswalkers alike) Whipflare vs caw or maybe G/W (dominating the mana then getting a hard-to-kill threat down) based caw, centered on artifact destruction then (agreeably) have Thrun, the Last Troll as your threat. I still think Sword of Feast and Famine is a better equipment simply because it substantially increases your options while decreasing those of your opponents.
