This Deck was built in 0:07:21Total Deck Size: 4017 Lands --------------- 7 Island  10 Plains  16 Creatures --------------- 2 Azorius Arrester  1 Hover Barrier  2 Hussar Patrol  1 Isperia, Supreme Judge  1 Keening Apparition  1 Lyev Skyknight  1 Runewing  1 Seller of Songbirds  1 Soulsworn Spirit  1 Stealer of Secrets  1 Sunspire Griffin  2 Tower Drake  1 Voidwielder  7 Other Spells --------------- 1 Avenging Arrow  1 Ethereal Armor  1 Eyes in the Skies  1 Inaction Injunction  1 Knightly Valor  1 Rootborn Defenses  1 Trostani's Judgment  Was tempted to go green but with no gates and only one creepy vine I found it to be not worth it. White Blue gives a bit of removal but the amount of fliers here is just to much to pass up. Also give me my favorite combo soulsworn spirit + Knightly valor.

This Deck was built in 0:11:59Total Deck Size: 4017 Lands --------------- 6 Island 6 Mountain  5 Plains 15 Creatures --------------- 1 Azorius Arrester 1 Frostburn Weird  1 Hover Barrier 2 Hussar Patrol 1 Isperia, Supreme Judge 1 Lobber Crew  1 Lyev Skyknight 1 Soulsworn Spirit 2 Splatter Thug  1 Stealer of Secrets 2 Tower Drake 1 Voidwielder 8 Other Spells --------------- 2 Annihilating Fire  1 Avenging Arrow 2 Izzet Keyrune  1 Knightly Valor 1 Mizzium Mortars  1 Paralyzing Grasp  There are obviously other builds here but I think that the red gives us awesome removal along with some much needed aggressiveness for this deck. I think that 3 colors are doable here especially with the keyrunes available. Another approach would be to use the green bombs opened in this pool. I think that would look something like this: This Deck was built in 0:04:57Total Deck Size: 4118 Lands --------------- 6 Forest  6 Plains 5 Swamp  15 Creatures --------------- 1 Armada Wurm  1 Daggerdrome Imp  2 Dead Reveler  1 Gatecreeper Vine  1 Grim Roustabout  1 Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord  1 Korozda Guildmage  1 Rubbleback Rhino  1 Seller of Songbirds 1 Sluiceway Scorpion  1 Stonefare Crocodile  1 Sunspire Griffin 1 Thrill-Kill Assassin  1 Towering Indrik  8 Other Spells --------------- 1 Avenging Arrow 1 Common Bond  1 Coursers' Accord  1 Eyes in the Skies 1 Jarad's Orders  1 Knightly Valor 1 Rootborn Defenses 1 Trostani's Judgment The mana on this could be rough. Even though black has the earliest drops, I still have to give more White and Green mana sources because they could win you the game even if you get behind. Given the choice between the two decks build I would run the 2nd of the two because I haven't had consistent success with an Izzet deck in RTR sealed.
