Creature (3)

Enchantment (3)


This is a pretty simple, humans/knights white weenie deck. Lots of low drop creatures that become indestructible once Knight Exemplar comes into play. Lots of strong knights like Mirran Crusader and Silverblade Paladin get through for damage. Drop the Champion of the Parish or Student of Warfare T1 to start the game off strong. Knight of the Holy Nimbus is a strong T2, a good attacker due to flanking, and a good blocker because he will regenerate. Knight of the White Orchid and be used tactfully on T3 to elicit two 2-drop creatures, or you can go for the brass ring and play the Knight Exemplar Silverblade Paladin or the Mirran Crusader. Then the game gets interesting. Drop Elspeth, Knight-Errant to stir up trouble, create tokens and give flying until she gives you indestructible. Emeria, The Sky Ruin will let you bring back your guys to the battlefield, as will the Sun Titan who will not only bring back any knight you could play in the deck, but he can help fix mana with Flagstones of Trokair until you're ready to set off the sky ruin. Cards like Grand Abolisher Day of Judgment Oblivion Ring or Path to Exile let you switch over into a classic kinda white control if you need to. The deck plays pretty consistently, try it out if you're a fan of the archetype.

Haven't played this in a while, felt stale so I changed it up a tiny tiny bit. Mainly I swapped Oblivion Ring for Journey to Nowhere, and put in Reveillark. I also lost the Flagstones of Trokair seeing as how the new legend ruling makes them that much harder to set off an even number of times. The deck plays hilariously now. EVERY creature besides Sun Titan rises from the grave thanks to Reveillark and it is NOT difficult to play the control game long enough to draw her. The only problem I see is that Champion of the Parish isn't being buffed by anything except his own ability, but, he's still deadly. I want to try Elspeth, Sun's Champion in this deck possibly, does anyone think she might work?
