personally i think there are better cards you could pick instead of fletting image i think the spirt and kegia and meloku are good enough choices try playing quicken instead of image?

The only thing you have going for you over monoblue is that you get to run Wrath of God. Faith's Fetters is not spectacular (good enough, maybe) in a deck with countermagic, and Blinking Spirit is nothing special. For all that gained, you run a much worse draw engine and worse countermagic (no Shoal). I wouldn't bother with u/w until Dissention. The cards just aren't there right now. No u/w list would be better than u/w/r.
