You Shall Not Cast!

Modern Control WU (Azorius)

The idea here is fairly straight forward and simple. I plan on using Silence and Mana Leak early on to stop my opponents from casting anything so I can build up my mana. Turn 3 gives me the option for creatures or rendering my opponents silent once again.

All this countering and stalling is so that I can get either my unblockable Latch Seeker out or my flyers or the double strikers. They're low cost guys with other useful abilities so that I can keep stalling and have mana enough to summon more attackers if need be or hold onto my mana for countering.

I have utility cards like Oblivion Ring and Detention Sphere in case I need something gone. Azorius Charm is particularly helpful in many different ways.

My attackers get buffed by Ordeal of Heliod and Angel of Jubilation I like the enchantment for the potential life gain. I only have the one Cyclonic Rift in case I get it, it'd be a nice field wipe later on if im out of counters and silences.

I put Divine Deflection in to pretty much bait my opponents into attacking me. If I dont have a counter, I'll leave my mana open and push the damage back to them for as much as I can. Its pretty surprising and works both defensively and offensively, I think it goes perfect in here.

That pretty much sums it up, let me know what you think or if you can suggest any improvements :)

I had made this for Extended play but suggestions of Modern cards are fine too
