Hi there! This is a fun little white weenie deck. My first deck pauper deck was very similar to this. The Gempalm Avenger is actually a really good synergy with your deck and could prove to be a great surprise combat trick to take out your opponent's attackers/blockers. You could drop the Outflank to make room for four Journey to Nowhere, for a little efficient removal, because your opponent could easily take out one of your soldiers to save their creature from being killed. Straight up replace the Steeling Stance, with Guardians' Pledge, same cost but better effect. If you want some good early came tempo plays, try Icatian Javelineers. They might prove a little more efficient when dealing with small creatures than your Gideon's Lawkeeper, because I always say "Why tap it down, when I could just kill it?". This deck could use a little draw power too, so consider changing up the mana base just a tad with some Secluded Steppe. Weenie decks are really fun to play, and this could rack up some wins with just a little upgrading and tweaking.

In making my Sygg, Tollfolk and Governor-Goddess Ephara Decks, I became very interested in turn-related effects, and that inspire this card, as well as Klothys, God of Destiny, who switches the way usually work, whereas most Gruul cards use green's might to accomplish red's free spirit, She uses Red's fury to express nature's law which green cares about.
Based on (Gerðr)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ger%C3%B0r] in Kaldheim.
Khyrteh, Goddess of Polar Winter
Legendary Snow Creature - God
Protection from instants
You may cast Khyrteh, Goddess of Polar Winter
Whenever a player casts a spell at a time they couldn't cast a sorcery, that player loses 5 life.
At the beginning of your endstep, if you cast no spells this turn, search your library for a card, then shuffle your library and put that card on top of it and you gain 5 life.
2/10
This deck would use Eidolon of Rhetoric, Rule of Law, Curse of Exhaustion, Ethersworn Canonist, Oppression, Uba Mask, Tainted AEther, Desolation, Angelic Arbiter, Nullstone Gargoyle, and Painful Quandary effects to force my opponents to make difficult decisions. Bloodchief Ascension, Strionic Resonator, etc. would also give you more advantage from this ability.
Tax effects, like Thorn of Amethyst, Sphere of Resistance, Trinisphere, Lodestone Golem, Trinisphere, Nether Void, Glowrider, Thalia, Guardian of Thraben, Aura of Silence, Spelltithe Enforcer, Chancellor of the Annex and Feroz's Ban
Decree of Pain, Decree of Justice, Astral Drift, Death Pulse, Dirge of Dread, Eternal Dragon, Gempalm Avenger, Gempalm Polluter, Renewed Faith, Stir the Sands, Sunfire Balm and Abandoned Sarcophagus & Archfiend of Ifnir, also Oketra's Attendant, Undead Gladiator, Bloodsoaked Champion, Dread Wanderer, Nether Spirit, Nether Traitor, Reassembling Skeleton, Bloodghast, Angel of Sanctions,Anointer Priest, Sacred Cat, Dark Depths, Thespian's Stage, Shambling Vent, etc. to avoid 'casting' spells.
grand arbiter synergizes well... yeah...
I'm a stax player who got into the deck because of Death and Taxes, especially Mother of Runes, Thalia, Guardian of Thraben (Her printing got me into standard/formal play), Gaddock Teeg, and Iona, Shield of Emeria.
I really just made a card I wish existed...
I'd like to see another Kaldheim God!

Rally the Peasants and Gempalm Avenger can give you alpha-strike potential at a very low cost, and Veteran Swordsmith and Armorsmith can give more permanent buffs to your token army. Cool deck!

I recently made a Pauper Soldier deck as well and I love the idea of it. I think some notable inclusions would be Gempalm Avenger, Topan Freeblade, and Thraben Inspector.Avenger is a 3 mana buff for your soldiers that also draws a card at instant speed.Freeblade is basically a 2 mana 3/3 with vigilance.Inspector is just another 1 drop but it basically cycles itself in the later game.

I know they have already recommended you Thraben Inspector, but, from my experience, it is a worthy card. White doesn't have a lot of card draw and if you combine it with Kor Skyfisher you'll get a lot of advantage.
An Anthem spell I love is Gempalm Avenger: instant speed, first strike, you draw a card and can't be countered (as you cast it for the Cycling cost)! Also you can cast it as a creature in long games.
I also have a soldier weenies deck, although your approach is more aggro than mine (I have a more controllish style). I hope my suggestions work for you!

Oh! Another suggestion: Gempalm Avenger, you can cycle it at instant speed and they can't counter it because it's an activated ability. Also you draw a card!
And in further turns, you could cast it as a big creature too.
I also have a soldier deck (Call to Arms (Weenies), but I'm still testing it too. If you want to come and take a look you are welcome!

Daru Encampment's from Onslaught. Quite an oldie. ;) As for Temple of the False God, I don't know. I think it quite useful... But if its a card you dislike, there's nothing to do other than exclude it.
True. Sandstone Bridge has a somewhat minor effect, setting you back a bit. I don't mind the loss of tempo, but its up to you. Same goes with Gempalm Avenger.
Champion's Helm is far superior to General's Kabuto. That's why I named them in that order. Protecting Odric should be a priority. You can even use Darksteel Plate if your meta runs lots of mass removal.
Knight-Captain of Eos is good. At least on paper... I'm still assembling my own Odric deck. He might be good for long games. Not sure how fast Edric is.
You're welcome.
