I wanted to explore an Azorius deck with a focus on detain and flying. I was feeling nostalgic for Isperia since I pulled that card years ago during a draft where a guy glanced at her stats and blurted, "That thing's a fucking house."

Although, Errant and Giada is probably a better commander for this deck.

I have a bunch of cards in here that can bounce the come-into-play detain creatures so I can get more value out of them.
