Nothing fancy here. Just looking to make a cheap fun deck to run with. Getting back into the mtg scene lately, and my first online starter had a bunch of white flyers and a couple Armored Ascensions. I was surprised how effective it was! Basically just a lot of weeny first strike and flying to start with. Bolster with Honor of the Pure and finish with Armored Ascension. That +4/+4 (or thereabouts) jump seems to come as a pretty big shock in the mid game. Emeria, The Sky Ruin can pull guys back for the late game, Mimic Vat can bounce dudes earlier (seems to work pretty well with Wall of Omens. Just in consideration of all the Surgical Extraction I think we'll be seeing (and not to ignore Memoricide ), I've tried for more diverse 2-ofs versus more targeted 4-ofs, which is sort of why the Caged Sun over 4 honors. Iona and the Baneslayer are just a couple of beaters, although I'm tempted to swap out for a couple Day of Judgments. Like I say, I've been out of the game for a while, so ideas and comments are hugely appreciated!
