Deck discussion for Azorius Flyers

Looks mostly solid all around, however a few suggestions.I would mainboard magus of the moat, since it will help in pretty much every single matchup. I would sideboard dovescape, since it could actually end up helping your opponents especially if you have magus out. I would also drop supreme verdict from the sideboard, I think it about 80-90% of matchups it will hurt you far more than your opponent. Also if you remove swords to plowshares it is modern legal (and you can replace it will path to exile which is almost the same card)

Thanks for the CC!

This deck was derived from a legacy/casual deck which revolved around dovescape and pride of the clouds (huge flyer), along with a legacy card called righteous cause, which would pretty much negate damage from their spells-turned flyers, and i wanted to try to maintain that mechanic as best I could, but you're right, the dovescape is somewhat out of place. I originally had ghostway and the verdict mainboarded, as an opponent board clear combo, although it is a 2 card/ 7 mana combo, it usually preceded a win. Plus it usually turned out that my 1/1 flyers would be bigger than the opponent's due to my buffing enchantments. However, with many legacy instants/sorceries which I had to replace to make this modern, I can see how dovescape could come back to bite me. As for the path to exiles, I was planning on making the switch eventually.... but the swords to plowshares are significantly cheaper and I know this won't be winning any major tournaments, so am only working with cards which I already have.
