Ya don't play 1 ofs play at least 2 of most cards to keep your deck consistent also figure out your winning condition (how you win) and build around that

Ok thanks ill try to get more copies of important cards...I notice that my main play goes around Soul Warden,Galepowder Mage,Elite Vanguard,Oblivion Ring and Honor Of The Pure...my deck seems to focus around exiling thanks to GP Mage,Oblivion Ring and Lightwielder Paladin and My final victory card could be Scion Of Vitu-GhazI or Angel Of Light...Lightwielder Paladin just keeps Reds and Blacks off the field while Oblivion Ring and GP Mage take care of other color cards so that my high Power creatures can attack and even I don't exile something,Angel Of Light and tokens supplied by Vitu-Ghazi have flying which goes very well along Honor Of The Pure...

K but remember you want a deck where literally every card helps your winning condition so if you want life gain then  {Soul Warden} is great and also colors matter if you play a lot of white and you want life gain try  {Angel's Feather} but first decide your win cond. then go from there

To me it looks like you have a few gain life cards but you have a high focus on exile/disrupting your opponents monsters so you can attack. Stick with that and drop about 11 cards so you have 60. I don't remember what all these cards do but I just made a mono white so I know a few, drop the ones that deal with gain life like jedit's dragoons. Double up on pacifism/obilivion ring. And that should be pretty respectable.

Ya what he said lol basically mono white can go either controlling their creatures with  {Pacifism} or just constant life gain like  {Angel's Feather} if you go for life gain ADD 4  {Ajani's Pridemate} they help a lot!!
