Standard Deck Feature: Azorius Devotion

Azorius-Devotion
The next Standard deck that is on feature for this week is a version of the winning deck from Pro Tour: Theros, Blue Devotion. This deck has been continually a popular choice and gaining finishes on major MtG tournaments. The update of the list though, is the splash of White to open the options for powerful Azorius spells like Detention Sphere and the color to cast Ephara, God of the Polis.
