This is a new deck I 've been thinking about for a while, and I would like to hear some opinions on it. Meanwhile, let me explain. Our bread and butter here is Fiendslayer Paladin, since he is quite hard to remove from the field, featuring other nice perks like lifelink and first strike. There are no one drops in this deck except for silence, so any life lost on the first turns will be replaced with Fiendslayer Paladin and Ordeal of Heliod. Next you are looking to buff Fiendslayer Paladin up with Ethereal Armor. After that you basically take out the opponents creatures with cards like Pacifism and Celestial Flare, while keeping Arrest for creatures with abilities and Soul Tithe for some possibly annoying Planeswalkers or big-ass creatures. Gideon is a pretty solid Planeswalker in this deck gaining huge amounts of loalty counters pretty fast (especially if your opponent has 5-6 pacified creatures on his side) and that 0 skill is just evil! Elspeth is there to provide you with 1/1s for blocking or annoying the opponent, providing another way to remove the big-ass creatures mentioned earlier, and that -7 is just awesome! Spear of Heliod is also a nice way to remove creatures. Heliod, God of the Sun is a nice addition giving vigilance to your paladins (oh yeah!) and providing the field with more enchantment creatures. By turn 6 or 7 the field should have enough enchantments to get your paladins become a really destructive force! Thats about it, tell me what you think!
