This deck is part of a cycle I'm putting together, one of each colour - and if I get ambitious, one of each two-colour combination, too.

The basic idea is for each deck to be an introduction to that colour. I try to include many of the most popular cards of each colour, as well as many of the most famous cards of each colour, the sorts of cards people make off-hand reference to ("oh, Freyalise's -2 is a Naturalize"; "Damnation is a black Wrath"). These decks are generally going to be low on synergy and more of a "Goodstuff" deck, but hopefully also capture the essence of what each colour is about in addition to showcasing many of the individual cards. Green should be stompy, red should try to win quick, etc.

On the other hand, because these are "trainer" decks, I try to avoid tutors (because they require knowing what you're digging for), Planeswalkers (because they're complicated), and effects that can really lock players out of the game (for what I hope are obvious reasons).

I haven't playtested these at all, and have no idea yet how they'll play against eachother, but I figure I can tune as I go.

For White, I tried to focus on French Vanilla, and cards that either add or interact with evergreen keywords. There's a lot of efficient attackers, some hatebears, some big impressive angels, and some board-wide pumps.

There's really only one choice for commander here: Odric, Lunarch Marshall. With him on the board, the deck synergizes and should become a major threat as long as the players can keep track of the keywords.
