Deck Description

UW Humans +Silverblade paladin -Mirran Crusader

Silverblade paladin can make Geist of Saint Traft even better than he currently is. By dropping Silverblade Paladin, and binding him to the angel when it enters the battlefield. 4/4 flying double strike seems nice! You could also bind him to the Geist itself, and that would save him from those pesky 2/2 creatures. He would also kill spellskites, which is a common early blocker in some decks.

I still sideboard a few Mirran Crusaders, because of the protection from black and green.

Why would you sideboard mana leak?

If you're on the draw, you are already one land behind on their turn, when you would use it. I think that you need that mana to keep up. I only opt it in when I'm on the play. Sure you could main deck it, but I rely on oblivion ring the first game until I know what I'm up against, and if I'm on the draw or not.

Also worth mentioning that Negate could be better against decks such as Wolf Run Ramp, still not sure which is better
