This is my Orzhov knights deck for pioneer. I made it with mostly cards I already owned, which is why the budget cost and no cavaliers. I really love running this deck against other creature focused decks as Knight of the White Orchid keeps it at a competitive ramp for getting out The Circle of Loyalty and History of Benalia and overwhelming with a large force of tokens.

Early game I am focused on getting out a Worthy Knight and Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit to get the most out of my next creature drops. Then mid game I focus more on trade off's and blockers until enough enchantments are out to make my knight's large enough for large swing ins.

I really like the idea of Knights' Charge and Syr Konrad, the Grim making every combat a huge lifeloss towards the mid-late game even with enemy blockers. My main issue is getting to that point against any sort of control deck.

I would love some sideboard suggestions or main deck additions that aren't outrageous. Is it a good idea to get some sort of vigilance add on like Always Watching?
