Izzet spells with White splash
I wrongly picked Rip Apart, should be oung Pyromancer, but otherwise it is all good. Bots deck are also good too, despite Green going unpicked from my Pack 1 and 3 and White from Pack 2. U is contested in this draft.
I was thinking going full UW cause I get flying signposts on Pack 1, but I realise UW flying getting cuts plus all dual lands available were Izzet. When I realised in Pack 2, it is already too late and I have lack UR playables.
It's kind of a pity that the draft got complicated, because the deck was looking very nice. I'd not try to go into 3 colors without any fixing for white. I'd go so far as to include Jubilant Skybonder, Tibalt, and the hypothetical Young Pyro into the deck just to avoid white altogether. Even if you went with that splash, having so many white sources would certainly be detrimental.
Do you have any cube to draft?
Currently I have very outdated cube Yang Tercecer, Kubik, if you wish so choose. Not every color pair is supported.
I drafted this UW tempo deck. I started picking some good white cards, but then I found Stormchaser Drake and decided to build around it. I may have ended up too threat-light, specially at the 2 cmc spot, but I also got some other powerful 3 and 4 drops, and a decent top end.
