Hmm .... true dat, but I prefer the unpredictability. It's a safety measure if my opponent brings enchantment hate. Don't put all one's eggs in one basket and all that.

That being said, I will sideboard it.

Aren't you the person who made that Arcblade deck a while back?

Now you have. =).

Pleased to meet you, fellow vault-dweller. If you need any assistance, feel free to beseech me. I can deck out ... your decks!

Hey Jessie ... I went and pulled a crazy. Aurelia, the Warleader in a budget deck. Take a look.

Hmm ... and here I made a white exalt deck. No matter!

I love the deck idea.

The mana curve looks a tad high, especially considering that you only have 20 lands.

Tenacious Dead is a great chump blocker and exalt user. He is also WAY cheaper than Gravecrawler. I would recommend 4 of em.

Sengir Vampire. Why do you not have him? Your opponents either have to block him, making him stronger, or let him tear them up with a minimum of 6 damage a turn. Ouch.

If you want to be really mean, splashing green for trample isn't a bad idea (Rancor).

Other advantages of splashing green: Golgari abilities that take advantage of enemy graveyards would love it here, since you will either be chipping away at blockers or punching their face.

Here I come to save the day!

Seriously, I just made 2 exalted decks. I may be capable to assist you.

I will post the link below (to the cheaper one).

Great idea!

Hmm ...what to take out ... maybe ardent plea? Rancor can take care of pesky chump blockers, but I like to duplicate important effects, with a little variation to throw off opponents. In fact I may run artful dodge, since it's an instant.

I wouldn't say you were a hypocrite .... I'd say you changed your opinion of something you didn't like through firsthand experience.

Np man. I am excited to see it!

The great irony is that it's from Jessie ... an leading opponent of article decks.

Just wait until they print a Knight of the Harlem Shake ...

Alright, here is my budget exalted deck:

I made it ... but my wallet can't make it. Curse you Jace, the Wallet Sculptor!

I apologize for taking up so much of Jessie's time with comments.

I am Knight of the Hokey Pokey, and I approve of your deck. As a fellow white player, I wish you good luck.

P.S. Look up the card Knight of the Hokey Pokey ...

That's too bad ... it's a beautiful idea.

Hmm .... Artisian of forms might be better than Phantasmal Image. Having both is a good idea too.

My Jessie ... you have a truly diabolical head on your shoulders.

Kazzong, my good man, I suggest we follow suit with Jessie here. I'll ping all of 'em faster tyan a Vampire Nighthawk with a Thornbite Staff will destroy all your creatures. Well, maybe not THAT fast ...

Oh Gods .... protect me from the Vampire Nighthawk holding a Thornbite Staff!

How did you do it!? Share your wisdom oh wise one =).

Standard isn't sterile ... it's just more difficult to be creative. It's perfectly possible to go outside the box, then accidentally find that you used all standard cards.

Those decks are awesome, because you have made something unique, that hasn't be hashed out to beat heck. Standard is the cutting edge, and your reward is that the deck doesn't cost a mint.

Gothy ... challenge accepted. Time to find a FNM group.
