Is Mono-White viable in EDH?

[IntoFire]

I need to know. I really wanna make a mono-white EDH and I need to know .

It's REALLY underwhelming. Decks exist but unless they are Voltron they typically are disadvantaged.

{eight and a half tails} is a mono white I just made. Very impressed, main dis advantages is card draw and land. {land tax}, {skull clamp}, {scroll rack}, {sensi's divining top}, {journeyers kite} are excellent for working around these problems. {serene master}, {pentarch paladin}, {mirrion crusader}, {serra ascendent} are all strong cards and make mono white a viable choice in my opinion. Control, control, control

I've player against some great {Eight-and-a-half Tails} decks online. If you build it smartly, it's a very good deck. Some tips:
- your general can protect your stuff from being targeted, but boardwipes are your enemy. Don't overcommit. Use an equipment package with all the swords, {Umezawa's Jitte}, {Skullclamp}, etc. and of course {Stoneforge Mystic}.
- don't forget utility cards like {Land Tax}. There is one card that lets you search for a plains and put it in your hand, forgot what it is but run it! Run a one or two instants that grant indestructability. Run cheap removal like {Swords to Plowshares}.
- you run cheap removal, so don't run more than one creature wrath. Take care of the insane threats and let the rest sort itself out.
- Run land wraths. Every 4 mana land wrath that you can run, run it. {Armageddon} is your friend here. It may seem douchy but listen: blue gets cards, green gets ramp and power, black gets removal out the kahoonas. What does white get? Lifegain? Yeah no, white needs something to combat blue's power. This deck doesn't need a lot of lands to survive. When you have a good sword and your general out, go ahead and destroy all lands. You will come out ahead. Running {Crucible of Worlds} helps.
- one thing that helps you to not be relient on lands is the power of artifacts. Run {Sol Ring}, {Mana Crypt}, and {Mana Vault} at least.

In closing, I want to say that mono white can be a good deck, but you honestly need to have a lot of money cards to really mane it shine above all those maelstrom wanderer decks that just needs a rampant growth and a signet to win. You need quality artifact ramp, efficient removal, and good equipment to do this, as well as utility like {Enlightened Tutor}. But if you build it well, it is truly a force to be reckoned with!

All I can say is angels.  {Avacyn, Angel of Hope} and  {Linvala, Keeper of Silence} are GG

All I can say is angels.  {Avacyn, Angel of Hope} and  {Linvala, Keeper of Silence} are GG

{Iona, Shield of Emeria} and {Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobyte} too

[DYMongoose]

My {Kemba, Kha regent} deck is really good, but that's on a kitchen table level. I don't know how it would fare in a competitive event.

Ive seen some really ugly competetive white decks. All of them run Armageddon type stuff and Equipment at a premium. The pster who mentioned this type of build is very accurate white can be a force but it requires a lot of time to build correctly and requires very specfic cards to be employed.
The plus that comes out of building a deck such as this is you acquire a lot of really good stuff which u can then add into another build at a later date when u get tired of it.
Don't forget a bomb such as {Orim's Chant}!

Mono white you need the most expensive white cards out there to be competative..

Avacyn needs some shroud there from something like {Lightning Greaves} or some combat tricks to protect her from stuff like {Gild} or even an opposing {Swords to Plowshares}. An annoying combo nonetheless.

[MuggyWuggy]

Nope
You can't make a white EDH deck.

It is not viable,
