This deck is about amassing a huge army of tokens, buffing them up with anthems, then giving them tons of keywords with Odric, Lunarch Marshal.

Since we're playing mono-white, we don't have much access to a few of Odrics keywords. What we do have is equipment. Cards like Chitinous Cloak and Skeleton Key can give us keywords that we otherwise would never be able to get in mono-white.

Some of the cards in this deck look like cards you'd find in someone's bin of bulk commons & uncommons. However, these cards can have tons of value when Odric is on the field. Cards like Sungrace Pegasus, Darksteel Myr, and Chitinous Cloak are all useless in almost every other deck, but give us valuable keywords for very little mana. This can actually be an advantage when your opponent sees your boardstate thinks your deck was built with cards you found lying on the ground, when in fact those cards will provide powerful buffs once Odric, Lunarch Marshal hits the field.

A few of these keywords do more than they first appear to. For example, giving all of your creatures first strike, vigilance, and deathtouch means that nobody will ever want to attack or block you. Also, I have 4 boardwipes in this deck, because if you have Odric and an indestructible creature on the battlefield, a Wrath of God turns into a Plague Wind. Since Odrics ability triggers on each combat step, not just ours, an opponent might forget about Odrics trigger and boardwipe on his or her second main phase.

Notes on a few cards

• Darksteel Mutation can be used to deal with someones annoying commander, but you can also enchant one of your own creatures to give your creatures indestructible with Odric.

• If you have Enlightened Tutor, you should search for a good draw engine like Well of Lost Dreams if you don't already have one. If you do, you should search for Anointed Procession or Heliod, God of the Sun, depending on your boardstate/hand.

• Open the Armory can tutor for Shielded by Faith, Darksteel Mutation, Skullclamp or any equipment that has keywords you need.

• Rout can be cast in response to your own attack phase if your creatures are indestructible, leaving you with a whole army of creatures and your opponents with no blockers at all.

• Ashnod's Altar may seem a bit out of place, but there are definitely many reasons reasons to include a sac outlet in an EDH deck. Ashnod's Altar can rescue an Odric that's been Imprisoned in the Moon, abuse Sun Titan, prevent Mind Control, or just help get some more mana. Also, if you have an anthem, Skullclamp isn't as powerful, but with the altar, it becomes a mana and card generating machine.

Less Budget Options

Open the Armory --> Stoneforge Mystic

Sacred Cat --> Serra Ascendant

Knight of the White Orchid --> Land Tax

Help Wanted

This deck could really use some more draw & ramp, and maybe some more removal too. I'm thinking of taking out the tokens subtheme to make room.

I also need more wincons for this deck. It can easily get tons of keywords through Odic, but the problem is I have nothing scary to put them onto. I was thinking maybe Serra Avatar, but 4WWW is a lot of mana.
