Semester's End

Instant

Exile any number of target creatures and/or planeswalkers you control. At the beginning of the next end step, return each of them to the battlefield under its owner's control. Each of them enters the battlefield with an additional +1/+1 counter on it if it's a creature and an additional loyalty counter on it if it's a planeswalker.

I would really like to see just some basic removal spells, at least 7. At least some instants, at least one more board wipe. If you have a Teferi's Protection or a Semester's End you really don't care about unconditionally wiping the board. I would also like to see a Brilliant Restoration type of card your static enchantments are really powerful and its nice to have a backup way to overwhelm them after a cheeky Farewell, while they're not Dance of the Manse explosive it can get pretty hard to deal with the sudden burst in deadliness especially if you can give your creatures haste somehow.

Out: Hindervines, Heaven / Earth, High Sentinels of Arashin, Wood Elves, Together Forever, Triskelion, Semester's End

In: Boon-Bringer Valkyrie, Agitator Ant, Evolution Sage, Orzhov Advokist, Evolutionary Escalation, Swiftfoot Boots, Botanical Brawler

A larger update in an effort to build counters. Taking out superfluous or higher value one shot effects for things that can provide counters regularly. This also lowered my curve ever so slightly.

Peacekeeper + Sun Titan = super Moat!

I went with Endless Horizons for ramp instead of Land Tax in this build.

I went with Comeuppance and Semester's End instead of Teferi's Protection. I should add it though.

I know this is a major downgrade but I went with Search the Premises over Smothering Tithe. Will most likely swap.

Great suggestions for creatures that draw cards in {W} but if you look at my small list of creatures they all deal with planeswalkers.

Last year I built mono colored SUPERFRIENDS decks. Orzhov is a very neat color combination for this strategy.

Mobilized District is very meh BUT it's a free 3/3 with vigilance. It can attack or block when necessary.

I like your streamlined spell package. Your thoughts on Damn?

Semester's End > Teferis Protection (or both!)

jarncards on Soldiers

Adeline, Resplendent Cathar might be a reasonable addition. she isn't a soldier but gives you extra fodder for you to buff and will hit like a truck. Also Mirror Entity and she will be good friends with the tokens she poops out.

Errand-Rider of Gondor, Resistance Squad, Spirited Companion, Loyal Warhound, Solemn Simulacrum, and Knight of the White Orchid are always reasonable additions. you need cards and mana to play them. they also love to be blinked and revived, which is what white does best.

Cosmic Intervention and Teferi's Protection are the s+ white cards. they go in every deck with white

You should run Skullclamp and Heirloom Blade. and Recruiter of the Guard. It is too good not to.

You have plenty of blink synergy already. Eerie Interlude, Ghostway, Semester's End are things you should strongly consider, the delayed return allows you to dodge wipes, although youll lose your tokens. Teleportation Circle might be reasonable to add. Planar Guide can also be used offensively too. And The Eternal Wanderer is outrageously strong. It does everything.

Cut Arm the Cathars its awful at 3 sorcery speed. Things like Akroma's Will exist and are 100x better. I'd honestly have you revise most of your instants and sorceries. You dont have enough draw to use spot removal like this without putting yourself at a disadvantage.

If you run baird, you should also consider Norn's Annex, Ghostly Prison, and Windborn Muse. as those effects stack, they get much much stronger.

Darien, King of Kjeldor is pretty silly, although he's expensive. with the soul sisters you run, you become very very hard to kill. Conclave Phalanx isn't great in my opinion without some blinking, but if you use something like Nykthos Paragon, its very silly Knight-Captain of Eos also can do a lot to make you invincible.

Flowering of the White Tree is an amazing anthem. probably the best in the game. Spear of Heliod is probably second if you keep mana up, just because it will likely turn offense to other players because of its awful ability.

Moonshaker Cavalry is probably an instant win if you play it

LANDS: This deck might actually be able to run Scorched Ruins.

You might as well add Daru Encampment, Forbidding Watchtower, and Memorial to Glory. Kjeldoran Outpost has synergy but has a major drawback.

I'll look at more low cost stuff later. most of my recommendations are like 5cmc+

Looks like a fun deck! Atraxa is certainly a powerful commander that can go in many directions but I like your choice of going w/ +1/+1 counters mainly. I think more cards like Winding Constrictor and Kami of Whispered Hopes would really make the deck hum. Corpsejack Menace and Conclave Mentor are good adds. I think some more effects to spread around counters more such as Good-Fortune Unicorn and Mikaeus, the Lunarch would help as well.

I think the deck could use some more cards that help w/ consistency and interaction as well. Abzan Charm and Inspiring Call both draw cards in addition to having other flexibility and +1/+1 counter synergy. Fertilid and Incubation Druid both ramp and care about +1/+1 counters. Lastly, Damning Verdict would be a good board wipe addition to clear out opponents' threats while leaving your board mostly intact.

Adding cards is easier than cutting cards. Here's my thoughts on cards that could go to make room for new ones. Venser, the Sojourner doesn't seem to do too much other than being ult-ed. Semester's End is good for saving your board but it resets any amount of counters you've built up back to 1. I don't think there's quite enough planeswalkers or non-creature spells to warrant running Ichormoon Gauntlet. Arcus Acolyte seems a bit slow. Empyrial Archangel doesn't seem to do a lot of work and can be difficult to get counters on because of the shroud.

I would also think about adding a few more basics to help ensure consistency. Good luck with the deck!

Great list!

Teferi's Protection is the best at what it does but doesn't Semester's End better fit the decks theme?

Resourceful Defense no loyalty counters ever go to waste.

Honor-Worn Shaku all your planeswalkers become mana rocks!

Staff of Compleation swiss army knife.

Sword of Truth and Justice turns your few creatures into proliferating machines.

Deserted Temple utility.

Mobilized District the best manland for Superfriends.

Oops, I meant Semester's End, not Ephemerate
