| Monowhite decks, on the other hand, are perfectly feasable. However, you have to pick a strategy, either aggro or control. You see, you run 21 lands and no filtering or card-drawing, what are the odds of you ACTUALLY drawing EIGHT of them, and even so, being able to play Akroma in time to win? You see, the curve is too high. I’d either run A LOT more lands and make it into a monowhite CONTROL deck (Condemn, Oblivion Ring, Sacred Mesa, Wrath of God, etc), or just cut expensive, non-aggro cards (Cho-Manno, Pariah, Stuffy Doll, Akroma) for stuff like Shade of Trokair, Serra Avenger, White-Shield Crusader, Mana Tithe, Griffin Guide, even Calciderm and Ajani Golbmane (well worth it’s 4 mana, but on top of the curve itself). Or make a Kithkin deck, with Goldmeadow Stalwart, Knight of Meadowgrain, Wizened Cenn, Militia’s Pride, etc. Right now, this build is kinda all over the place. |

| Pentarch Paladin is not very good, it costs WAY too much for doing WAY too little. In an aggro deck, you already won the game by then, or you won’t win anyway. In a control deck, if you need to get rid of attackers, Wrath of God is way better (and cheaper), and if you need to "kill" an annoying permanent, Oblivion Ring for the rescue! |

| but if its late game w/ an aggro deck you need something... and wrath of god would probably hurt you more than your opponent with this deck |

| If you’re playing aggro against aggro and it’s late game, something went terribly wrong. Believe me. |
