Thanks. I knew about Intangible Virtue, but it feels like a win more. The ones I have can be used if I don't get Springjack Shepherd and still help, while Virtue is only good with the tokens. That said, the other two, Mondrak, Glory Dominus and Seal from Existence are strict upgrades that I should get.

Rebuff the Wicked seems more sideboard, which I will need to eventually craft and will be included when I do, especially for non-creature decks.

All in all, I appreciate the advice and glad you like!

Heya, interesting build.

Since you asked specifically about new cards, Seal from Existence is brand new (at the time of posting this) and is another pure upgrade to Oblivion Ring, even more so than usual in your build where you're running off White Devotion too.

I see decent Anthem effects here, but you also might look at a copy or two of Intangible Virtue if you're really looking to roll with Goat tokens, since the Vigilance can be extremely useful, especially early-game in keeping pressure on without opening up too much to another token or creature ramp build.

Lastly, I seem to recommend this card a lot for White decks, but if you need some protection for any of your other selections, Rebuff the Wicked is far & away one of the best options out there in my opinion since it can protect any permanent you end up needing, not just a Creature like most White protection options. Not many people plan for a White counterspell either so these can be extremely effective, especially in Best of 3's where an opponent knows full well what the primary target in a deck like this will be.

Anyways, neat deck +1

I was referencing Teferi, Temporal Archmage. However, I realize that I missed it as I was commenting around midnight.

How has Enlightened Tutor been for you, what are your targets? I'm assuming crypt/sol ring early game and rings late game? Have you thought of swapping it for Imperial Seal? Is it the $ and the sorcery speed which turns you off? If not imperial seal, another card to consider would be Rebuff the Wicked or a Fierce Guardianship? Being in the best 4 colors makes decisions difficult, I'm sure these are unneeded but worth considering.

Hi SufferFromEDHD, thanks for your comment! I like your suggestions a lot. Coercive Portal is an excellent draw-engine on top of it being a threat that looms over everything. With Avacyn out, it even becomes impervious to its own destructive force (like Disk). It's currently very hard to come by one in my country, but I'll keep an eye out for sure.

As for Rebuff the Wicked, I think I'll put this into my sideboard and occasionally swap it for Brought Back or Swords to Plowshares (dependent on what I'm facing).

Coercive Portal immediately came to mind. Good value with this commander.

Rebuff the Wicked mono white staple.

Big fan of underrepresented tribes. This is a solid list.

Harsh Mercy is a tribal Wrath of God

Radiant Destiny > Day of Destiny

Maybe Rally the Ranks too.

Mutavault the best samurai land in the game!

Rebuff the Wicked this is a permanent heavy list. This card would do serious work.

Rebuff the Wicked > Argentum Armor - AA costs too much to cast and equip. Buff is whatever and exile is nice but not really needed. Rather than having a 6 drop equipment, even if you commander allows you to bypass costs, wouldn't you be better served with additional protection (for 1 mana) rather than un-needed redundancy?

One of the few, good mono white decks I've seen.

Dooooope! I too enjoy playing old/bad commanders.

Harsh Mercy tribal removal.

Cavern of Souls best tribal land.

Path of Ancestry solid tribal land.

Vesuva double up on that Griffin Canyon.

Rebuff the Wicked a mono white staple.
