This deck allows many types of strategies, no matter who you are playing, there will always be a great chance of winning. Despite the small number of lands the deck runs perfectly fine with me.Sun tzu would like to play with this deck.
1 turn - play 'student of warfare'.2 turn - up level 'student of warfare' and attack 3/3.3 turn - play 'Silverblade paladin' paired with 'student of warfare' and attack 3/3 with double strike.4 turn - play 'knight exemplar' or 'Elspeth, Knight-Errant' and attack.5 turn - if stowing outnumbered, play 'wrath of good', the only creature who you will miss is the 'knight exemplar' and attack.attack all the time...

ok, first off, KNIGHTS! second off, in a 60 card deck such as this, i usually run 20 lands, but considering the relatively low mana costs of this deck, 18 lands may work out fine. I would also put in a few knights with flying, but considering your selection of removal and control cards in this deck, they may not be necessary. anyways, i'm gonna stop ranting now haha.

Nice deck, In-tangle Virtue for the tokens , other that i like it ! Check out any of my decks if you have a moment thanks
You probably don't need the wrath or ghostly prison. You have plenty of creature presence to stop things hitting your face. Also you should check out a card called 'Brave the Elements'. I run a knight deck and it's a beast card.
goblins are faster than knights. to kill the goblins ghostly prison will need to have greater control over decks faster than mine, in this case 'Brave the Elements' is not very necessary. 'day of judgment' is very useful for when I have 'knight exemplar' on the battlefield all my knights are indestructible except the opponent's creatures, thanks.
Not enough land; 23 is a pretty good watermark; lower-mana cost decks can have down to about 20.
believe, 20 land is land of more, and if I do not have many lands onto the battlefield 'knight of the white orchid' will help me, thanks.
Disagree--everything in this deck is super low cost, you can definitely afford to mulligan on the reg once or twice to make sure you get a couple lands. With a deck that curves out ultra low like this they're definitely not super necessary, especially being mono-white.
I'd drop Emeria, the sky ruin. It seems like a good card but you'd have to have 7 fucking plains on the battlefield in a deck that's only running 16 plains. Even if you use path to exile as a tutor for plains on your own 1/1 tokens or creatures, it's just not worth it.
Emeria already saved my life many times, 7 plains arrive very fast, even with only 16 plains in the deck Path is not necessary in my creatures, play this deck and see yourself, thanks.
Take out Silverblade and add Mirran Crusader from the Sideboard, add 2 land (at least) get rid of ghostly prison and add oblivion ring from the Sideboard. take away 2 Path to Exile and add 2 Holy Day. and your deck shall be glorious!
I dont think so, already tried, better this way, thanks.
how about Terra Eternal? to keep people from destroying your Emeria
Seems a bit wasteful unless LD is extremely rampant in your casual meta.
well the land count is low enough, why risk it getting lower
knights were my first deck still a huge fan. defiantly lioke your deck looks strong. check out my knights dont have to comment or anything. but nice deck any way http://www.mtgvault.com/imnewtomagic2012/decks/dark-days-white-nights/
And, since we're all posting our knight decks here's my tri-color one:http://www.mtgvault.com/vikingincarnate/decks/bgw-haakon-aluren-knights/
closest thing i have to a knight deck is my bant of sterroids deck, but it also runs a lot of counter-related cards, like clockspinning.
HA HA HA, THIS IS SO FUNNY, this is almost the exact deck my friend just switched his knight deck too. he must have seen yours and copied it. anywho, i was wondering, for a weanie deck, why the ghostly prison, most the time we played i was able to afford attacking with my elves or eldrazi. the card to me seemed out of the meta for this type of deck. but i was wondering your insight cause he had none and your the obvious creator of the deck hes playing now. i would figure a card like harsh mercy
goblins are faster than knights. to kill the goblins ghostly prison will need to have greater control over decks faster than mine, strategy. Thanks.
hmm, but for the meta i believe its more of a side deck card. your deck is already super fast thanks for getting back tho! Really good deck.
that wold be nice, i'll think, thanks.
just keep in mind, if your in a room full of 40 decks, how many of those decks will you need that card, and than how many of those decks will you have to hold it in your hand cause it would only be a hinderance. sideboard ;) or just sideboard a spineal extraction. that kills alot of decks with specific rampers.
Norn's Annex as a sideboard? i just like that they are forced to use life if they arn't white. also for one more mana you can have a 2/3 flying creature out of it Windborn Muse.
it´s cool, but I dont think so, thanks.
I've got a Norn's Annex in one of my decks and is saves my life SO many times, anyone can pay a colourless mana for something like it but paying plains or 2 life, now THAT's a better choice. If you're also worried about the speed, there is also a pay 2 life option for you! (or 2 rather)
I've thought about it, I think I could even put it on the side, thanks.
I feel like this deck needs more land though. 18 is kind of unheard of. I would do at least 22
believe, 22 land is land of more, and if I do not have many lands onto the battlefield 'knight of the white orchid' will help me, thanks.
Wow, I can't believe such a terrible deck has recieved this many likes! 18 land? so you'll be playing your Knight Exemplar on average, turns 4-6, and Hero of Bladehold on average turns 7-9? If you add more land, you'll be able to play more creatures thus making Ghostly Prison completely pointless... I bet the only reason it's in the deck, is because you only have the mana to play one creature per turn, turns 3- 20. Seriously Ghostly Prision in an Aggro deck? You're doing it wrong! Take out the Prisons and ADD MORE LAND!!!!
no need to be rude about it, but i do agree with ghostly prison. throw in some aether vials to fix the mana good sir.
Sparkygravity If you've never played with this deck, and never saw him running, so shut your mouth or stop typing, play with this and see yourself.
Well I must admit I agree to some degree. No arguing that this deck works well, every tribal does and this one has a nice selection of effective creatures, but it is far from perfect. You must have a lot of bad mulligans(I tried sample hands and I went to six or less more often than not), or maybe you are used to playing first mulligan into 7 with your friends, that may explain a lot. Still you are denying good suggestions from numerous players and I can see why. You need Ghostly Prison and Wrath of God (which are clearly out of deck, or sideboard material) to compensate for your slow start due to small number of lands and etb tapped Emeria.That being said I agree that lands, Emeria and Ghostly Prison are problematic. But I would like to add one problem "of my own".Your deck is completely based around single creature - Knight Exemplar - and you have literally no way of protecting him (to be exact, only with other copies of himself :-) ) For example, I believe your opponents react to your Wrath of God by killing him very often, thus creating hillarious moment when you clear your own board.In the end, dont let yourself deluded by so many likes, try considering suggestion in the discussion and the reasons behind them, we just want to help. :-)
thanks for help, I´ll think about some things.
well put, have my vote up.
Have you considered Kinsbaile Cavalier over silver blade paladin?
silver blade is faster, thanks.
I would ditch Ghostly Prison. An aggro deck like this shouldn't be trying to slow the game down. Even worse, you have 4 maindeck Day of Judgements and Path to Exiles to take care of the opponent's creatures. What use is Ghostly Prison after you wipe the board? When would you ever want a Prison when you could be playing Silverblade Paladin or Knight Exemplar? I have played my fair share of WW and knights, enough to know that Prison isn't a card you want in a dedicated aggro deck. If you are worried about goblins or something, put them in the sideboard.Now for the lands. Trying to run 18 is admirable, but if this is meant to be competitive you should play more. You NEED to make your first 3 land drops to stay ahead, with 18 lands that won't happen often enough even with KotWO. 21-22 is the lowest I would use if I were to run this deck, and that is ignoring the fact that you have Sun Titan and Emeria. Sun Titan will be a dead draw most of the time because you won't have enough lands to play it. Same with Emeria, in this deck it functions as a basic plains that comes into play tapped. Here is what I would do: (not saying you should, just a suggestion)-4 Ghostly Prison (move to sideboard)-2 Sun Titan-2 Emeria-1 Day of Judgement+4 Plains+4 Mother of Runes or Brave the Elements+1 Elspeth, Knight ErrantThese changes make the curve 12-12-8-8, which is better than 8-12-12-8-2. Aether Vial is good in knights, consider playing it. Hope this helped.
Nice, I'll think about some things, but ghostly prison remains. Ghostly prison I would play instead of playing Silverblade because if the opponent controls 5 creatures and I just one, I would at a disadvantage. Thanks.
Nice deck. Your sideboard could use a few additions - Disenchant, Rest in Peace, and possibly Ivory Mask. You have only 2 O-Ring to handle Planeswalkers, Artifacts (Ensnaring Bridge) and enchantments (Cowardice etc) Bounce effects can hurt your deck. Brave the Elements really shines in mono white weenie. I also like Mother of Runes in your deck. You have aggro completely covered but seem weak against Combo and some Control builds. Good Burn decks should give you a tough match. However, still looks like an excellent fun deck. Nice first post.
Not to mention all the likes. It's just not fair XD XP Once you get three likes, it starts ramping, because people start looking at it, then you just gay massive amounts of likes. :pGood on ya magon
"you just gay massive amounts of likes" Looool
geezer48 thanks, I´ll think about some things.DragonWolf7 dont need be so rude, this is just a deck that I play with my friends and some tournaments of my state, I just posted here to get some help and show my other friends who live far away.
Sorry, i wasnt being rude, i was complimenting. I meant to say get, but my phone has bad autocorrect on swype.I did say good on ya, what made you think i was being rude? Sorry i did :P
Sun Titan doesn't seem right in a deck with 18 lands.
I agree with that, you will never play that guy with that many lands. I would remove it and add 2 extra lands. The rest is arguable, but I would use the Kinsbale Cavalier instead of the Silverblade and add more power with Honor of the Pures.
True conviction is a better card i think than honor of the pure, but maybe both...
Nice, very similar to an old deck of mine.But I use Serra's blessing so I can block my opponents creatures.Wrath of god is better than day of judgment, in my opinion. I use kinsbale cavalier instead of silverblade.Accorder paladin is pretty awesome tooTake a lookhttp://www.mtgvault.com/aliski/decks/indistructible-knights/
Wrath of god is also like way expensive
5 bucks is WAY expensive?
Oh its gone down. It used to be like ten. But still a little expensive.
Day of Judgment is effectivelly the same, they are interchangable - for budget version, use DoJ.
exactly. meta isnt exactly regen anymore, so day of judgment is fine i think
harsh mercy instead of wrath.
harsh mercy isn't modern, but thanks for help.
Beautiful deck, two thumbs up :p
Maybe it's just me, but it seems like you would rather have day of judgement than wrath of god, seeing as you you have knight of holy nimbus.
He also has Knight Exemplar . . .
to tell the truth I had not even noticed him hehehe
while I am a big fan of ghostly prison, I would toss it for swords to plowshares, allowing you cheaper creature removal, which would put u up to 8 w cost removal spells, which combined with wrath of god, is perfect. Ghostly is a great card, but for its mana cost I think it will hinder you more than it will help you. It would do you more good to play a removal spell and still have left over mana to drop a creature. You don't want to waste a turn not playing a creature in a deck like this. Plus with the extra removal, it does more than enough to compensate its loss. After all, that's why you have Wrath of God in the first place right? To weed out all those annoying token town decks? I would as well toss out Brave The Elements for 2 more lands, so u would be running a solid 20. I realize u have ur heart set on 18, but the only thing I see wrong with it, is its lack of reassurance on getting that 3rd or 4th land. You don't want to get to that point where you are waiting on it and get smoked because of it. Other than that, awesome deck
Since you're runnin Ghostly Prison, ever thought about Sphere of Safety?
Sphere of Safety has a high mana cost, and I'll never have so many enchantments onto the battlefield to it be effective, but thanks for help.
Just thinking of the possible multiplication of the X, even IF they're the only one you'll use. The only other real deterrant similar to this that I would recomend is Norn's Annex, which I've already recommended
I have another suggestion/nitpick- 8 Oblivion Rings in the sideboard doesn't really work but I'm sure it was an accident? Also, Brave the Elements I find to be situational at best, and really does nothing in a lot of games. With those 2 slots, you could bump your land count to 20- 18 is a bit too little when your deck holds 20 cards thar cost 3 or more mana. Honestly, I would probably go up to 22 lands here
No, 20 max. You get way to many lands on a mono color deck with pretty low mana costs. 18 works really well.But yeah, brave the elements should go. Just do flickering ward and concerted effort
hehehehe 8 Oblivion Rings was a true accident, thanks.
Well 18 Plains and 2 Emerias won't work and the fact that only 30% of your cards are lands that can help you curve out isn't helpful- it leaves you with opening hands that more often than not only contain 2 lands, while a third of the deck is above that benchmarks. 3 lands if you count your first 3 draws after, but many hands just aren't worth that risk. These odds only get worse as you mulligan.
Actually, if you play with it, it works out nicely
Maybe take out brave the elements since it's not really worth it and add two.more plains
^ Definitely this, but I would at least test going up to 22.
Thing is, what.would you take out?
its possible someone has said this but what about kinsbaile cavalier
Lol try like every other person just about lol
Why no crusade?!
Honor of the Pure is much better than Crusade.
Yea if you want to be boring
Need help on my Vampire (standard deck)Just need a draw mechanism. For faster drawing. Not nessairly searching. If you feel the need to chime on other aspects feel free! Only STANDARD CARDS I already have an awesome unbeatble vintage version. lol.http://www.mtgvault.com/mmmjkx2/decks/blades-nightmare-standard/
http://www.mtgvault.com/xxxeleshnornxxx/decks/a-storm-to-remember/http://www.mtgvault.com/blackrazz/decks/you-make-my-sliver-deck/
I'd drop 2 Wraths for 2 more plains. The deck will be more consistent that way.
There a new knight that just came out in m14, fiendslayer or the mirrian crusader! Need Some help with these decks , if anyone has a moment thanks again !http://www.mtgvault.com/dragon77/decks/bazaar-of-wonders-blitz/http://www.mtgvault.com/dragon77/decks/growing-elementals/http://www.mtgvault.com/dragon77/decks/blast-those-artifacts-curse/
silver knight is not legal
... in standard, correct. Neither is Hero of Bladehold, Ghostly Prison, Wrath, PtE, Knight Exemplar, Student of Warfare, etc. Based on that we can safely assume this deck is not meant to be standard legal.
I had the same deck winning a lot of games, but some aggro decks or that which can draw fast could beat it.Please, take a look on my knight deck... It can kill a bit faster and has a draw mechanism to have more speed than usual.
I am going to be honest, I did not read through all the comments. I run a white knights deck also. I would highly recommend running Cavern of Souls as it is brutal against the predominant meta for me with all the control decks running around! Keep up the good fight with White Knights in modern sir! If you have a minute take a look at mine and let me know what you think!
I like the deck! It, quite honestly, has inspired me to make a mono white knight deck that can potentially compete in modern at a high level. I think the wrath of god is much better then day of judgment, for the same cost it takes care of pesky creatures in the pod decks that are ever so prevalent.Anyway, take a look at mine if you have a minute, thank you!http://www.mtgvault.com/zeppelin/decks/modern-knights-win/
I'm honored to have inspired you with my deck, good luck in tournaments
