The Modern version of my Goat Challenge deck. I was testing it out... and it was actually winning T5-6. I figured, why not make a modern list?

It is now my dream to build this deck in RL and dominate.

Creatures

Doomed Traveler is a pretty good one drop- a 1/1 body that gives me a token later.

Knight of the White Orchid provides mana fixing as well as pretty good stats.

Precinct Captain has the same basic stats as the Knight, but also gives us tokens.

Mirran Crusader has double strike. This is HUGE when it comes to anthems, lots of life loss is common.

Hero of Bladehold is insane. You get two tokes, then proceed to buff those and your other attackers.... she's kind of like an anthem, actually.

Springjack Shepherd is one of our main win conditions. Most of the time, it'll result in six or so goats, all of which are buffed by one of our anthems. As you can guess, this is pretty powerful.

Anthems

Honor of the Pure is just so good. All of our creatures (and tokens) are white, so this is basically a Glorious Anthem for 1 less.

Intangible Virtue may only buff tokens, but it does so a lot. Useful and good.

Spear of Heliod is pretty good. It's mostly better than Glorious Anthem due to its ability, but it is legendary.

Angel of Jubilation is technically a creature, but it's an anthem as well. Not bad stats along with the anthem ability make it good.

Removal

Path to Exile should be in every white deck.

Oblivion Ring could be in every white deck. Journey to Nowhere is pretty good too.

Lands

Forbidding Watchtower gets buffed by anthems, but having more than one isn't ideal. Thus, the one of.

New Benalia is like a scryland... only slightly worse. I have considered swapping these for Temple of Enlightenments for the lolz.

Springjack Pasture is a late game token maker (and rarely sacc'er)

Windbrisk Heights is quite easy to trigger, and it lets me "flash" in emblems.

Plains is, honestly, outclassed by the rest of the cycle (Island, Swamp, Mountain, and Forest) but I need more untapped white sources, so I have to run them.
