This is an update to my UW modern miracles. I like the idea of splashing black for discard. It gives me a sense of being able to have a shot against any deck...except tron. The thoughtseizes and collective brutality definitely helpout against control mirrors and combo. Brutality is great against aggro as well.

I like the idea, especially since it was an easy splash, but we'll see how it is in practice

Healing Grace is in the sideboard for bolt matchups over better cards due to its synergy with Mentor
