I lost the first round. Won the next 3 rounds, changing to RGb when I lost a game (which means in games 2-2, 2-3, 4-3). I believe the RGb deck is better. The WG deck can be much better, but it relies too much on heroic to be a threat to the other player.
My win in game 2 of round 2 was pretty unbelievable as I won after mulliganing to 4! Is there there a way to save a replay, I'd like to keep it in my archives.
that W/G heroic deck looks amazing, your just short like 5-6 playables and playing those cards make the deck a lot worse. I think you might just have to go with G/U heroic deck. You have triggers in stratus walk, raised by wolves, etc. to trigger heroic and have a few heroic creatures. Floodtide serpeant wouldn't even be that bad.
Thanks for your feedback jpd5184 and BlakeLotus. I can now see the blue has a good amount of good cards in it and it should have been one of my color. I guess I was underwhelmed by the lack of great cards in this color in my pool (nimbus naiad, helix, voyage's end, sudden storm,...).
I kept looking over your pool for the rares and couldn't find them. Then I looked over at the "mana generators and useless mill spells". Ah.
UW Heroic looks a little weak, as tempting as that Battlewise Hoplite looks. Although the blue pool is deep, it's mostly slower controlly cards (Prescient Chimera, Serpent, Siren, counters, the 2 Tritons, etc) as opposed to the cards that work really well in UW Heroic (Retraction Helix, Sudden Storm, Ordeals, Emissary, Vaporkin, Nimbus Naiad, Nyxborn, etc.). White is also just a bit shy on depth, with 7 playables even if some are amazing. I'd want more in either U or W to consider UW. GW looks solid. If not for all the WW and GG costs, I would have been tempted to splash a 3rd color, but you really can't afford to.
