Post by: Jesse Shredister on February 19, 2014, 03:06:11 PM

White Humans

67 cards, 5 sideboard


20 {Plains}

20 lands


2 {Loyal Sentry}
2 {Order of the Stars}
4 {Champion of the Parish}
3 {Soul Warden}
3 {Grand Abolisher}
2 {Beloved Chaplain}
3 {Soul's Attendant}
2 {Children of Korlis}
3 {Imposing Sovereign}
3 {Planar Guide}
2 {Ranger of Eos}

29 creatures


2 {Pearl Medallion}
2 {Enlightened Tutor}
2 {Gather the Townsfolk}
3 {Cathars' Crusade}
2 {Sol Ring}
2 {Helm of Awakening}

13 other spells


Sideboard

2 {True Believer}
3 {Mangara of Corondor}

5 sideboard cards



Notes:
The idea here is to get out champion, with plainer guide and cathars crusade beefing up the champ and your other creatures with cathars. There's always room for improvement, if you cats got any suggestions, toss em' at me!

With so few lands, I'd cut the 3 {cathar's crusade} for 3 {honor of the pure}.

I agree: your hand should dump fast enough that a T5 Crusade would be pointless, as you have no more creature cards in hand

With all the mana acceleration it won't be turn 5, but I would get rid of that stuff and play more of a white weenie deck. I can bump my version of white weenie up if you'd like.

But that's only +4/+4 limit, with {cathars crusade} I can exile then and have them get counters going off of the creatures I control, I can get that one turn and keep building. But, that's only if I can get that out. Making solid points, das ist gut.

No  {Cavern of Souls}?

{Cavern of Souls} is bossy but its also expensive. I could toss in at least one.

You might be better of spending the money on an {Elspeth, Knight Errant} or something else if you don't play against too many counterspells.

I'll also strongly recommend {Honor of the Pure} again.

I did drop the {Cathars Crusade} and swapped it out for {Honor of the Pure}, and I like that idea, could use the flying and that emblem is pretty snazzy.

Awesome! Good decision :)

Yes, Elspeth's emblem is awesome, but generally (in my opinion), it's better to look at the first 2 (or 3, or 4) abilities on a planeswalker and not the ultimate.  You generally don't get to use the last ability in most games, so it's better to be happy with just the first 2.

That said, Elspeth is awesome looking at whatever abilities you want to look at. :D :D

Find 2-3 if you can, they're so much fun to play with.

No problem :)

I'm sorta new to competitive playing also, but I just read everything and play too much ( :P ) and so (at least, I like to think I) get better quickly. Reading everything on these forums helps. Good luck with your deck. :) If you ever want to test things on a wall game, let me know. I'm always happy to play, and to answer other questions too. If I can.

If you ever want to play a wall game, just start a post with my name as the subject. I'm sure I'll see it.
