Deck Description

Did somebody say white weenie?

How to Play

Darien has the ability to vomit out tons and tons of tokens if we get punched in the face hard enough, so why not make getting punched in the face not only easier but also beneficial to our overall well being.
Soul warden like cards give you health whenever a creature enters the battlefield, meaning that with say Soul warden and Soul's attendant out whenever we lose one life we create a 1/1 Soldier and gain 2 total life, meaning not only is direct damage negated but it increases our life total, significantly more so with even more of these cards, basically negating most forms of damage.
Note that infect and commander damage will be an issue when using this strategy, but things like burn and going wide don't do jack
The rest of the deck not focused on gaining life instead focuses on making the 1/1 soldiers big buff boys so you can go wide yourself, since you technically don't need to block common forms of damage (unless you want to avoid a creature or defend a planeswalker but you're smart enough to know that).
Suggestions are appreciated.

Deck discussion for Darien and the Army of 17,000

martial coup is another good board wipe for Darien. I would consider swapping it for knight of new benalia since its just a 3/1 vanilla

whoops that knight wasn't supposed to be there, I forget the card that it was supposed to be but that's a good suggestion, I have a problem where I shy away from boardwipes cause it gets rid of my stuff too and I don't like that :P but I'll do it.

Have you considered playing angel's grace and Gideon of the trials so you can't lose the game and dealing as much damage to yourself as possible?

That isn't a bad idea at all, I would also need to add cards that allow me to infinitely damage myself as well though.
