Color splashes in mono blue
Deck Help forum

Which color/colors do u think would make the current mono blue deck even better? I run the current mono blue deck and I have found it has issues with other devotions deck especially black and red. Wanting to add in another color to help my deck overcome all other decks.
We can't give accurate advice without a decklist, though I will say this.
If you're running Frostburn Weird then splashing red for removal spells won't hurt your chances of T2'ing the weird.

In the deck I have now I have splashed in green. Here is the current deck list. Mono Blue spliced with green

Master Biomancer is splashable, the elementals created by Master of Waves stay after he leaves the battlefield

I love Prophet of Kruphix abilities. Total offense on my turn total defense on ur turn. And flash in master at end of ur turn then swing next turn with all the tokens

i dont think 4x prophet is where you wanna be, i think Simic Charm would love a home with you though, hex proof is huge against one of your biggest threats, MBD, and its spot removal, likewise with esper control, it gives you that bump in damage or survival against burn, and worst case if a verdict comes down you could bounce something important like a nightveil, or opposing creatures like their Master of Waves

Personally, I'm thinking of splashing in White into my Mono-U deck. Detention Sphere just sounds beautiful, since the deck basically loses on the spot to an Elspeth, Sun's Champion
Red also sounds good, because control decks kill us so well... Skullcrack and Counterflux make me happy.
Green can of course add Master Biomancer as many have mentioned. Simic Charm is worth of mention, and people find Mistcutter Hydra to be useful.
And Black is just fun. Thoughtseize is wonderful, Whip of Erebos isn't bad at all, haha. (If you splash in Green AND Black, imagine Master Biomancer + Master of Waves -> Master of Waves dying and using Whip of Erebos to make more tokens!
I'm sure there's plenty more possibilities, but I'm in the same boat man. Splashing colors in a mono-colored deck can make you stress a bit, haha. Although I, personally, am leaning towards White.

splashing black (since some decks already play temples) is easy since the lands will still allow you to cast Nightveil Specter on curve, give you access to Thoughtseize and Hero's Downfall 2 of the most powerful cards in standard, as well as casting both sides of Far
