Stoneforge Mystic and Steelshaper's Gift are probably out of budget, but Relic Seeker, Stonehewer Giant, Taj-Nar Swordsmith and Steelshaper Apprentice are pretty budget ways to make sure you keep finding your important equipment most of your games.

SynergyBuild on Fixing White in EDH

enpc And with newer colorless card draw becoming much better, modern playable Mazemind Tome, EDH specific Endless Atlas, and older Sensei's Divining Top/Scroll Rack always being powerful options!

Things that synergize with white's effects like counters with Mindless Automaton, lifegain with Well of Lost Dreams, and tokens or small dudes with Skullclamp, that or Sword of Fire and Ice for equipment strategies, Smuggler's Copter and Bonders' Enclave for other strategies.

And in white, after looking it up for Omniscience_is_life, here is my new, semi-educated package:

Land Tax, Mangara, the Diplomat, Alms Collector, Weathered Wayfarer, Mesa Enchantress, Kor Spiritdancer, Sram, Senior Edificer, Stonehewer Giant, Dawn of Hope, Puresteel Paladin, Mentor of the Meek, Bygone Bishop, Luminarch Ascension, Emeria, The Sky Ruin, Sun Titan, Sevinne's Reclamation, Ranger of Eos, and Castle Ardenvale

Not to mention tutors being Weathered Wayfarer/Ranger of Eos being tutors, alongside Steelshaper's Gift, Open the Armory, Recruiter of the Guard, Ranger-Captain of Eos, Academy Rector, Arena Rector, Call the Gatewatch, Idyllic Tutor, Enlightened Tutor, Heliod's Pilgrim, Quest for the Holy Relic, Three Dreams, Boonweaver Giant, Auratouched Mage, Djeru, With Eyes Open, Taj-Nar Swordsmith, Thalia's Lancers, Totem-Guide Hartebeest, Relic Seeker, Priest of the Wakening Sun, Forerunner of the Legion, Ignite the Beacon, Plea for Guidance, Kithkin Harbinger, etc.

Oh, and there is more, just look!

mccabej140: White has pure card draw in the forms of Mentor of the Meek, Wall of Omens, Bygone Bishop, Alms Collector, Dawn of Hope, Mangara, the Diplomat, Thraben Inspector, Scout's Warning and To Arms! (from a quick gatherer search).

In addition, it has artifact and enchantment based draw/tutor in the form of Enlightened Tutor, Sram, Senior Edificer, Puresteel Paladin, Stoneforge Mystic, Stonehewer Giant, Open the Armory, Steelshaper's Gift, Kor Spiritdancer and Mesa Enchantress to name a few.

That seems like plenty of options for card draw/tutors in white. And while seom of these are limitied to artifacts/equipment, you can't just write these off becuase your specific deck isn't heavy in that area. It's like saying that green's tutoring is crap becuase you can't tutor instants despite thefact that green has some of the best creature tutors.

"Fun" is also not an argument here. Just becuase you haven't played with or against stax decks and just becuase you don't find them fun does not mean that that you can just write the entire acrhitype off. There are plenty of people who really enjoy playing those decks and now you're effectively telling those people how to play Magic.

Some players don't like counterspells - does that mean that we shouldn't play them? Now blue has a big void until late game. Blue needs more ramp! it has to rely on artifacts, that's not fair to blue!

But the above logic is flawed. Counterspells exist and giving blue ramp would make it more powerful. Just like giving white a crapload of unrestriced draw. Stax exists and you can't just pretend it doesn't becuase you don't like playing it/against it. White exists on a balance between having draw and having stax and that balance is important.

channelfireball12345: see above.

I would ask the question to everyone here - if white has such bad card draw, then what's stopping you from splashing a second colour to fix the deficit? Why is there such a push to build mono-white decks?

     Wiizy: Indeed, that's true! You're definitely not wrong, but there are a number of creatures in this deck that I don't have much interest in stacking equipment on that are still worth protecting (Mother of Runes, Bastion Protector, etcetera).

     Having the ability to give haste for no additional mana in a White deck is quite valuable with things like Giver of Runes or Stonehewer Giant as well. The Shroud part of Lightning Greaves can definitely be annoying at times, but they still draw me a card, grant haste and equip for zero. In my mind the Greaves are just too useful to not include. =)

You need cheap attach equipment cards you want to heavily consider for this strategy

Zirda, the Dawnwaker Nahiri, Storm of Stone Sram, Senior Edificer Danitha Capashen, Paragon Brass Squire Puresteel Paladin Kazuul's Toll Collector Sigarda's Aid Cloud Key

Ones to strongly consider in deck Champion of the Flame Magnetic Theft Vulshok Battlemaster Heavenly Blade Kemba, Kha Regent Stonehewer Giant Balan, Wandering Knight Valduk, Keeper of the Flame Akiri, Line-Slinger Helm of Awakening

Sword of Truth and Justice as well as Faerie Formation would be good. Colossus Hammer, Stonehewer Giant and Stoneforge Mystic would also fit with the voltron theme.

Hunter's Insight, Greater Good (just reprinted 5$), Skullclamp, Puresteel Paladin, and The Great Henge are all good for card draw (not sure if this is budget or not).

I personally like See the Unwritten, Sun Titan, and Rancor in my Arahbo deck.

Stonehewer Giant (4$) was reprinted and is amazing in any equipment deck, Open the Armory and Eladamri's Call should be in the deck.

Sungrass Prairie is cheap and good for fixing, Avacyn's Pilgrim and Wild Growth are both good cheap ramp cards.

jakeyuki12 - thanks for the comment! Thank you also for the compliments! As far as card advantage, I guess Skullclamp and Mentor of the Meek are considerations, but this isn’t necessarily token based. does have tutors, but they are situational. Some additions I was thinking of were Cartographer's Hawk, Stoneforge Mystic, Kor Cartographer, Enlightened Tutor, and Stonehewer Giant.

Did you have specific suggestions?

For the 4 cmc slot, were you saying I should go higher or lower? Most of the decks I play hover around the 3.0-4.0 range, so I naturally gravitate towards 4 cmc cards.

Thanks again for your comment!
