Lol valuth it's {Valakut the Molten I win you lose Pinnacle}

Also it's basically ramp until you can cast Scapeshift with a bunch of counterspell back up. Also it's a great deck BUT it's very weak to a lot of decks. Soul sisters laughs at it and mill laughs at it too! But those decks aren't played a lot but still

Mono white weenie/lifegain

It uses the "soul sisters" {Soul Warden} and {Souls Attendant} to gain a bunch of life and then drop {Ajanis Pridemate} or {Serra Ascendant} to finish the games

*sigh*
The deck is a control deck with a combo finisher. With cards like {Prismatic Omen} it can deal upwards of of 36 damage when it finally goes off and that's with only six lands. Some decks run {Primeval Titan} as a secondary wincon and as a way to use Valakut to muscle in additional damage. Couple things of note:
Saccing lands to Scapeshift is not an additional cost so there is no danger of losing all your stuff to counter magic.
The deck is capable of just scapeshifting into Valakut and then just pinging as part of an attrition war.

THIS. SO MUCH THIS.
