Deck discussion for Mono-White Control (Standard)

It isn't a white spell, but Boros Charm would be nice in the sideboard for when you run up against Supreme Verdict and Anger of the Gods.

True. The biggest problem is that I don't have anything to combat opposing exile effects.

I don't think there is much you can do about that. Another good spell to look into for the sideboard or possibly mainboard is Soul Tithe. A lot of your enchantments are creature specific, but Soul Tithe is similar to Oppressive Rays but works on any permanent.

Like the deck, like the build. Do you think the creatures you have are enough to win the game though? :S

Would you mind commenting on my deck, its a new black white deck making use of the new mechanics and I am trying to get it right!

for opposing exile affects you could always play gods' willing or brave the elements

I'd just like to say, the deck works! I have gotten wins against T2 and T1 decks. It gets there, the only thing that might be holding it back is the Eidolon of Rhetoric, I have yet to see an actual purpose besides a nice toughness and the slight slowdown to an opposing aggro deck.

Silence! The best white control card in Standard. Maybe move Eidolon of Rhetoric to the sideboard and jam Silence into its slot. It's fantastic.

made some big changes
Added Angel of Serenity: Ridiculous card advantage
Added Silence: Necessary turn advantage, makes it so my win con can't get countered, endless uses
Moved Eidolon of Rhetoric to sb: Limited uses however does great against slowing down weenie aggro and burn, makes sense to be SB.

It's been a while since I've seen a highly competative & truely original built on this site... I like your style & for the 1st time in over a year, I have very few suggestions...

You need more mountains to make sure you'll not get stuck on your Chained to the Rocks-s... ...8 is just 1 short to the minimal amount you'd need here & 10 would be perfect...

Since you have no draw effects here & you play 3 Angel of Serenity & 2 Elspeth, 23 lands are not enough... ...you need to either play only 2 Serenity in the main deck, or use 1-2 more lands & yet again, 25 lands for this deck seems a little too much, so 24 should be perfect... ...I'd also run 3 Elspeth here.......

Too much Decide in the sideboard... ...I'd run 2of it & either 1 more Boros Charm, or 1 Revoke Existance(sometimes you need something for Godsend as well - even though Oblivion Ring can eleminate it, but sometimes just temporarly)...

So... ...I'd take out 1 Opressive Rays(I like the use of it, but sometimes, when you draw it in mid/late-game, it just doesn't do anything & since you have no draw effects, it could really throw you over) & I'd use only 2 Serenity, put in a 5th Mountain & a 3rd Elspeth...


Really nice work here, man! You have my approoval... ;)

Update: M15 is out! Unfortunately despite the utility of Silence, I haven't had too much luck with the card. Threw back in Mutavault, didn't think it was a good idea to take out anyway, and added in Ajani Steadfast. Best emblem by far, his ult can pretty much secure a game, and his -2 helps ridiculously. Added in Wall of Essence, unique benefits against an aggro matchup for sure.
