The most aggressive White Weenie deck on the ladder! Currently got me to Mythic ranked #520 a few days before the Theros launch. I’ve been playing White Weenie all of Eldraine and I’ve tried many, many versions of the archetype. I unfortunately under-performed at the Mythic Qualifiers. But if anybody is looking for a good ladder deck to rank up before the metagame changes I would recommend this deck.
The goal of this deck is simple, have many cheap creatures and then use mass buff to get the most value for your pump cards. There are 10 pump cards in this deck, Loxodon, Rally of Wings and Unbreakable Formation, giving you a one in six chance to hit. Ideally you will have one in your opening hand and another by turn 4 or 5 for the finishing blow. This deck gets significantly weaker after Turn 5 so you need to do as much damage as possible, so your opponent is forced to spend resources to counter you instead of setting up their threats. You only have 18 mana, but you don’t need more then 3 plains anyway.
Sideboard in Devout Decree against Red, Black or Red/Black decks, use Devout Decree and Hushbringer against Sacrifice decks, Use Glass Casket against adventure decks or aggro decks that aren’t red or black, and Gideon against control decks with sweepers like Fire of Innovation Decks.
The biggest difference with this deck and other White Weenie deck lists is the low mana count, low spell count and extremely high number of 1 drop creatures. One final trick is Rally of Wings, for 2 mana this card can generate a significant amount of damage that can put you over the top. It also works on the defense as a “gotcha” card that can work well after tapping all your creatures for the London, and destroy your opponents attacking creatures. There is no removal in this deck, every card is either a cheap creature or a pump spell, singularly focused on building your board state and attacking!
