So, I've been toying around with a few different ideas since M14 came out about how mono white could work. I've got a couple different ideas.

#1: Aggro/Devotion, using Nykthos to drop Elspeth on turn 4 and make a ton of tokens.
#2: Control? {Court Street Denizen} + {Elspeth, Sun's Champion}/{Akroan Horse}/{Assemble the Legion} (the last one requires a red splash, obviously)
#3: Some combination?

What thoughts do you guys have on this? Aside from just dying to {Storm Breath Dragon}, I don't see anything too terrible about a mono white deck. Sure it can't untap Nykthos or drain a billion life, but playing against decks without wrath effects it seems devastating to just poop a bunch of 1/1's and {Brave the Elements} for the win! (Although this also gives me an excuse to use my full art Brave the Elements in Standard...)

While this may not be a tier 1 deck idea, it doesn't have to be. But I say, since every other color has a devotion deck, why not white?

Because it has to be tier 1 or it's nothing lol. Or so I've heard some of the young ones say at my meta. Just one of those things I guess. I honestly think it could do some damage. Just needs the right build

I'm onboard. There are so many good 1-3 drops for monowhite right now. Fabled hero or boros reckoner with gift of orzhova is bonkers.

My idea is for more enchantment based control, focus on {Sphere of Safety}, {Blind Obedience} and {Soul Tithe}. Throw in {Ethereal Armor}, {Auramancer}s, {Ajani's Chosen} and {heliod}, sideboard in {Rest in Peace} and {Arrest}.
