Deck discussion for Mikaeus, the Lunarch EDH

u don't need more then 40 lands and u should run some non basic lands like seraph sanctuary emeria, the skyruin and nykthos, shrine to nyx

Yeah, 48 is way overkill in a mono-deck. 38 tops, and even that seems high.

Nykthos Shrine to Nyx would shine with all those white mana symbols.

Crackdown and Mass Calcify fit great in mono-white decks.

Condemn, Oblation and Swords to Plowshares are all cheap and amazing.

I'd run either Revoke Existence or Return to Dust over Cursebreak.

Thinks all deck need at LEAST three each imo:

1. Draw: You need some way to draw cards. White doesn't have a ton of options, but if has a few. Mind's Eye is amazing, well of Lost Dreams is great if you have good life gain, and Seer's Sundial works as well. You can almost never have enough draw.

2. Targeted removal: For artifacts, creatures, enchantments, and to a lesser extent lands, and if at all possible things that exile or tuck vs. just send to the graveyard. There's so many graveyard shenanigans in EDH that sending something to the yard just means you'll see it thirty seconds later more often than not, and straight up destruction doesn't work on Theros gods, Avacyn, Tajic, any artifact deck with a Darksteel Forge (i.e. every single artifact deck). You're doing well there so far, though I'd replace Cursebreak with something like Revoke Existence since it exiles and hits both enchantments AND artifacts. I like a Strip Mine in all decks to deal with an annoying Maze of Ith or Serra's Sanctum or Nykthos, and at five bucks-ish it's pretty affordable, but Ghost Quarter works fine, too. I run both.

3. Sweepers: Ways to reset the board state when things get out of control in someone else's favor. White has a ton of options here. Austere Command has a lot of flexibility, Wrath of God is cheap, Phyrexian Rebirth kicks you a token to start the reset off in your favor, Rout is instant speed, etc.

I wouldn't say it's ineffective. I personally don't run it, but I can see situations where there are cards you absolutely do not want to see hit the board.

The biggest problem for me with Nevermore is the fact that it's a bit of a dick card. Dick cards are totally fine (and necessary) in competitive environments, but I personally wouldn't want to sit down to play a game with friends and have a turn two Nevermore come out preventing me from ever playing my commander unless you have an answer (which red and black often times do not). As such, I wouldn't do it to someone else who is a friend I play with for fun. YMMV there.

And then pray they'll play a second game with you after. Stax decks are great in a competitive meta, but when you're effing around for fun with friends it's not much fun watching the guy with the stax deck magicbate while you sit there unable to do anything for ten turns until it's time to shuffle it up again.
