Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (15 cards)

Instants (14)

Artifacts (1)

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

I wanted something fun original standard and competitve
the idea is instead of just destroying people quickly with exalted to make it where exalted always gets through
things like faiths shield , feeling of dread vapor snag and silent departure help with connecting with each attack

All suggestions are welcome

Deck discussion for Exalted in blue white

awwww its gonna suck when vapor snag leaves rotation this next set that was such a good card anyway It seems pretty solid. the only thing i might suggest is that i think exalted is cool but it can back fire on you. In that if you ever cant get in the first punch your gonna fall behind in the aggro race cause your toughness on those creatures is usuallly glass thin. also keep in mind geist isn't going to get exalted because the moment you declare your swinging with him he immediatly puts out the angel token so there are 2 creatures attacking. anyway getting back to what i was saying i'd actually sub out the avon squires for some arctic avons for the additional toughness and the lifelink to keep you in there longer. I like the geist as a card so even though he doesn't trigger I think hed be cool to stay.

Half way down talks about Geist receiving Exalted trigger.

Giest attacks alone exalted triggers angel hits the stack tapped and attacking giest keeps exalted bonus and people die
And I'm hoping vapor snag can be replaced by any instant speed in return to ravinca as that's the only rotating card
Any while my aggro race isn't always great faith's shield for a pro color helps as I get a temporary invincible blocker and 8 bounce spells
And I'll begin test play with the artic Aven

Hm... I don't know if it does actually. You should email wizards and confirm that it works. Go to the official site and it has the tech support address. If it works, it is an awesome work around of exalted. I hope it is legit.

looks quite effective.
I've done a bit of research into the Geist's effect + exalted, and it does work, as the exalted takes effect before the angel token comes into play, so you get both.
I intend on trying a similar strategy with Hero of Bladehold (deck in progress)

Awesome bro the only reason i use geist over hero is the hex-proof
Whenever you get your deck up post a link here and I'll check it out I'm interested in all the exalted that's out as there actually doesn't seem to be much of it

Right here. Seems to be working pretty good right now. It's pretty much what it's going to look like very soon because of the shocklands.

Nice take on exalted, Geist of Saint Traft is nasty in this deck. Any thoughts on SB yet?

In non-mono colored decks I don't like to run lands that come in tapped and don't produce a color of mana
And it slightly drops the tempo which despite being white blue is quite fast

no latch seeker? Is that due to it not being hexproof?

Exactly with him being un-hexproof a single vapor snag makes me miss a turn which is terrible

Umm... because most of your creatures are less than 3 mana, you could try something like ratchet bomb and sun titan if you need a bit more board control. And where I play, RG werewolf decks are pretty big, so Flashfreeze in the sideboard never hurts. Hmm... other thoughts on the sideboard could be... Tormod's Crypt against decks that play Runechanter's Pike/ mess with the graveyard, Steel Sabotage for anything with Wurmcoil Engine or Pod shenanigans, and Gut Shot for "free" removal. All in all, I really like this deck though!

Also if you'd consider splashing black, tormented soul + Exalted is awesome. I just finished a BW deck built on that idea and it's really fun to play.

Pretty nice low mana cost deck. Playtesting it you dont even need 4 mana to really get the belt. Its a shame you have such little time with the snag. However, the new set has an insane bounce card you could use for the late game as well. I think you will like my WU Bird deck.

Am i just an idiot or does unsummon (M13) does pretty much the same thing as vapor snag ...
Unsummon has the advantage of not taking the 1 damage if you unsummon your own creatures.
I dunno, maybe theres something i havent seen..

That one damage makes a surprising difference between a borderline playable card and a tempo staple, but yes that's all the sifference

Like this deck but I just have one question. With standard rotating so soon, why have vapor snag and ratchet bomb in it at all? Deck is so close to not being affected I'm curious as to what changes you'd make. I assume unsummon for vapor but what about ratchet bomb?

It'll depend on the metagame, tbh this deck has been disassembled because t couldn't compete with the control its record at fnm was 1-8 I leave up as template for people now Im running my human's which are losing 2 cards to rotation but it at least breaks even on its record

I think you need some kind of resilience against Bonfire of the Damned, because it's such a common card in competitive standard decks

4x Cavern of Souls. When you drop it, name humans, knights, soldiers or angels depending on your opening hand or what you have in hand.

Artful Dodge, from my own esper colored exalted, is a cheap way to get a critter thru twice.
