This is my big white deck. Its designed to control the game out, and then give me a chance to swing for game. It makes GW tokens too costly to play, it has a good chance of killing Westvale Abbey or Collected Company and can recover from mono-white or r/w aggro pretty well.
Hallowed Moonlight works well against top Tier decks and also works with Eldrazi Displacer meaning you can use the creature ability/moonlight exile as a 5 cost removal spell against anything, or a 5 cost triple removal spell against Collected Company or a way to straight up remove Gideon, Ally of Zendikar when it comes out for its +1.
Pacifism also works well vs Eldrazi and other big beaters, and works best with Tragic Arrogance to ensure the creature that is left isn't a good one.
Angels go over the top, the removal package holds up the opponent, the Displacer... displaces. G/B sacrifice decks worry me a bit as they dont tend to attack, but hopefully the removal package takes care of that.
My ramp and early plays aren't super strong but the Knights of the White Orchid stop me from falling behind while the Hedron Archive provide additional colourless mana for the Displacers and can also give me card draw when I need it - and it means I can pull out a turn 5 Emeria Shepherd or Linvala while the Knight can get me a turn 4 Avacyn.
The Archangel of Tithes win many of the games simply by forcing the opponent to choose 2 of 3 options - cast, attack or block. I would love to add Always Watching to the deck to really close them out unless they can remove them all, but it just slows the deck down further I think - this may change.
Mirrorpool is a sleeper card from OGW for me. It can be very solid if it can copy the right card- the right card often being Linvala, the Preserver or Archangel of Tithes as one keeps you in the game and the other locks the opponent out of it - though Emeria Shepherd comes in a close second to the above as getting 2 creatures back on the table per plains played makes mass removal cry.
The sideboard is a great package for ramp, control and others that you have trouble with - and the Secure/Westvale combo is one that nobody likes to see.
I feel light on initial creatures but decent about my recovery chances and ability to win games from where I am mid game, especially when I find an Avacyn or Linvala.
I'm tempted to push this to White/Black to add in Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet either main or sideboard, but the dual mana requirements on top of the triple white required for the Archangel of Tithes doesn't inspire me yet, and further slowing down my manabase with
Shambling Vent
worries me as well - though let me know what you think.
