Probably a little too mixed up. I would go with all the teal out and Jairius's daughter out. Trans and Moses are probably not necessary. I would add like Jeptha for TD and maybe some Luke Gold hero's for MtM.

I like the Teal because it adds 2 more CBN/CBI battle winners. Jepthah might be a nice addition, but Holy Grail does almost the same thing & you don't have to discard the top of your draw pile. Jairus's Daughter is excellent for initiative and has a great ability. Trasfig+Moses has always done well for me, but I'll consider that. Luke heroes for MtM is a good idea, but I'll see how it plays.

If you like the teal, make a teal deck. In the meantime, there are better splash options that work better with white.

Someone hasn't done his homework.

If your planning on playing Teal/Tomb (which is very good) then your approach on offense has to be completely different.

A teal splash like this one is not effective.  It's too small.  Gabe's Teal/Tomb was much more teal, and TGT was the splash.  As is,  they'll just sit there ineffectively until you can draw to the enhancements.  Much as Transfig looks nice, there isn't really a need for it.

My TGT deck has a white splash.

Someone doesn't realize that there are better options to splash in a TGT deck than teal. Purple, red, and gold all have strategies that fit more cleanly into a TGT deck than teal does. I'm well aware that Teal Tomb took home the gold, but that was years ago, and there are better fits nowadays.

As Kittens said the Teal/Tomb was based more heavily on the Teal and the TGT was the splash and I still think that can be effective today.

I still like silver with TGT the best 8). That's probably better in t2 though.

I don't really think it's as effective as options like gold, red, or purple are, if nothing else than because you can use those three with Herod's Temple (admittedly, the options there are going to be very, very situational) or The New Covenant. Right now, all teal really adds to TGT (I'm assuming for the moment that the teal is the splash, since that's what the TC created) is a couple battle winners. Disciples especially can do it better, with some extra drawing and compatibility with TGT itself.

Teal does add Holy Unto the Lord to clear the way for TGT
