Deck Description

This is based on my first ever deck, the 2013 Depths of Power Blue/Red deck that I have got after GeekFest Jeddah Gamma event. I stripped away the red and added more blue to keep the flavor of manipulation.

Depths of Power won me a lot of games through bypassing all grounded defenses rather than other red effects. Granted, they did help optimizing some of the blue based effects. But I thought It'd be more fun using your own deck and thought instead

How to Play

I tried to to optimize this deck so that Talrand, Sky Summoner can get as many flying creatures on the battlefield along with the ready played flying creatures. The long term strategy is to make Stormtide Leviathan lock all grounded creatures into defense only mode.

Blue will not be fun without cancels and such; with Talrand on the battle field they work like "No, you're not gonna play that .. I will just add this 2/2 flying drake instead"

To increase the speed of the deck I added a few cards that would help me draw more cards and keep my hand loaded with options.

I'm not sure if I should keep the defenders and artifact in or make way for other cards that might be more useful.
