Deck Description

Mostly Standard format, some exceptions.

Got bored with black infect decks, so I decided to make this. I wanted to build it as close to standard as possible, but I'm tired and sleepy so feel free to tell me what would be good replacements for Angel's Grace and Curtain of Light.

Basically this is all about the artifact creatures, with a few good angels and some Metalcraft replacements. I figured when I go to FNM and people heard it was a White Metalcraft/Artifact deck they'd get the wrong Idea and prepare for a Myr heavy deck. Then I could surprise them with this. And when they adjust for this I can switch some alternates in and so on and so forth.

This is really just a whim attempt. I don't know if it'll actually play well. Feel free to comment, help, or burn it to the ground. I'm going back to my coveted black decks.

Edit: Decreased Holy Strength, Hyena Umbra, and Curtain of Light by 1 each to make room for 3 Tempered Steels.

Edit 2: Okay, for Full Standard Format simply replace the Ancient Dens with regular Plains, swap the Curtain of Lights out for Dispense Justice, and forgo using the Angel's Graces in the Sideboard.

Edit 3: Curtain of Light is swapped out for 3 copies of Emerge Unscathed. Much better, and closer to standard as well ^_^

Deck discussion for Strong White Infect

Better would be more Infect artifact creatures (Corpse Cur, Plague Myr, Core Prowler, and Phyrexian Juggernaut as a finisher) and then the always amazing and fantastic Tempered Steel. All your infect creatures get +2/+2? Yes, please!

Then use cards like Ajani to boost them further, or Indomitable Archangel (which you're already using) to protect them. And, of course, cards like Signal Pest are always an awesome addition, as well as an awesome turn 1 play!

I'm deliberately trying to stay away from high casting cards. You'll notice the majority of my deck is on the 1-2 casting range. Corpse Cur, and Core Prowler have low power/toughness in exchange for effects that wouldn't really excel here, and P. Juggernaut is simply an ok beater, when for the same cost I could use Victory's Herald instead.

Don't know how I forgot about Tempered Steel, thank you so much for letting me know. I considered Signal Pest, but I felt Ardent Recruit had more potential mid- to late game, and I'm not a huge fan of Ajani I'm used to running mono-black decks so maybe it's and ideological thing :P).

Thank you SO much for the comment tho, I'm gonna work on fitting Tempered Steel in right now.

I don't see why you wouldn't just make this deck standard. it doesn't make much sense to make it vintage for a two cards

I made this late late at night, so I was pretty tired and didn't see any other good replacements for the non-standard cards. So I just went with it. I may change it later idk :/
