This might be a little silly, but I was looking at all these white cards that restrict what players can do during the game, and wondered if they could be jammed into a workable deck. Settled on an aggro strategy once Vryn Wingmare gave me the idea of going all-creature.

The first thing that inspired this was the interplay between Hushbringer and Clackbridge Troll. Removing the downside and forcing the opponent to either allow the eight trample damage (optimally on turn five) or sacrifice a creature and give me a card seemed fun. Hunted Nightmare then presented itself as a similarly efficient creature once its ETB was suppressed. The Archon of Absolution and Vryn Wingmare are then there just to make life hard for my opponent. After that, I was mainly looking at high power low toughness creatures like Seasoned Hallowblade and Resolute Rider to pressure the opponent as quickly as possible, and sources of extra damage like Victory's Envoy. Grasping Giant is just there for funsies, an additional source of annoyance should the game go long.

Sideboard-wise, I was worried about lack of card draw so I included Ayara and the Guardian (who also benefits from being a 4/2). The Savior could be useful for helping keep key creatures alive, and the Magistrate, whilst a bit slow for an aggro deck, would help a lot against Adventure, Escape or GY shenanigans.

What do you think? I'm sure there's gaps in this deck, and it'd struggle in some situations, but I like how annoying it is. :P
