Have you tried Knight of the White Orchid ? Could accelerate land a bit. Or as a bonus it can fetch Mistveil Plains , or color fix by fetching any of the white Shock lands, (I.E. Temple Garden , Godless Shrine , Hallowed Fountain , or Sacred Foundry ) without running fetch lands. If interested in a small color splash to help open up sideboard options. Just a thought.

Based on what I've encountered so far, I typically prefer my current 2 drops because they provide either Lifelink, Exalted, or Flying and I rarely encounter mana issues since the deck is so low cost. Knight of the White Orchid is still a solid card that I've tossed back and forth though. If I ever went multi-colored with this, I'd definitely put those in there instead.

+1 BTW, always been a fan of knight decks.
Also, don't underestimate board sweepers in modern...just don't run 4 of.

Thanks! I'm keeping 2x Wrath of God in the sideboard just in case. I just enjoy the look on someone's face when I pull off an almost one-sided board wipe with Wrath of God .

Cool deck. Maybe try Cavern of Souls as a way to get around counter magic.

I'm waiting to see if the price will drop on Cavern of Souls once it drops out of Standard. If they get down to $10 or less, I'll probably pick up a few.

Thalia, Guardian of Thraben would be a good SB Card to fight combo style or non-creature based decks. Also fits nicely into your build (potentially MB material). Just another thought.

I have a fairly similar knight deck, Armored Ascension can be extremely useful. I also really like Wilt-Leaf Liege in there.

Replace all your Disenchant cards with Sundering Growth since you seem to use a lot of soldier tokens.
BTW, +1

mtgman12 - Silverblade Paladin was in the original version of this deck but he was taken out because Kinsbaile Cavalier has the same impact for all of the Knight creatures in the deck and I needed more room for my 1 drops (Student of Warfare ). I love Silverblade Paladin , but Knight Exemplar is going to be my preferred turn 3.

You could consider Door of Destinies , which is being reprinted in M14.

DaShPrime - I was actually able to pre-order a playset of Door of Destinies for $8. I love tribal decks, so the card seemed necessary. I might run some tests of that in here and see how it does. I'm not sure if it would be quick enough for tournament play, but I'm sure it would be a hell of a lot of fun in casual.

I had a knight deck a while back and playing it everyday i learned that you always need more mana no matter what, so a Sword of Feast and Famine does wonders! and I strongly consider Silverblade Paladin it gets pretty redonk in this deck. +1 though! check mine out if you want

this is a great deck! looks a lot like my White Knights!. The Windbrisk Heights is a great idea, I might add it to my deck.

Very cool deck! +1
Would a Fiendslayer Paladin have a place in the deck?

Wow, I have almost the exact same deck! At one point I just made and update that said "in this deck, Kinsbaile Cavalier > Silverblade Paladin " +1 for great minds thinking alike :)

I really like how this knight deck looks, planning on building a modern knight deck myself, but is the 61 main an accident? Forgot to take a card out?

Whoops. XD This wasn't even the deck I meant to comment on. Heh.
