Tocasia's Welcome Rumor Gatherer Loran of the Third Path

Moonshaker Cavalry True Conviction

I love mono-white too, it's come so far for edh the past couple of years. Cool deck, Oketra is awesome.

The other thing I'm noticing now that I take a closer look is you're very light on card draw. You only have 5 cards that draw right now including 2x that are just a 1 time use (Jeska's/Fable).

Breena, the Demagogue, Karazikar, the Eye Tyrant, Emberwilde Captain, Tocasia's Welcome, Skullclamp, Chivalric Alliance, and Plumb the Forbidden are all solid options here that won't break the bank.

I'd say Nightshade Harvester, Sunscorch Regent, and Luminarch Aspirant. If the harvester is a meta call for lots of ramp/landfall, I'd understand the inclusion though.

That starts to cut into your creature count so another change I would suggest is switching from your 1 time sorcery speed draw like Read the Bones, Night's Whisper, and Sign in Blood to things like Starscream, Power Hungry  ^Flip, Tymna the Weaver, and Welcoming Vampire.

Tocasia's Welcome and Plumb the Forbidden are good options here too but I would keep the creature count at around 25.

Last_Laugh on Budget Vampires

Not a bad start, especially on a budget. I notice a fair amount of cards in the $5-10 range but most of my suggestions will be cheaper than that with one notable exception. Reconnaissance.

Long story short on the card is: Attack with everyone safely, untap each creature at the most opportune time, deal damage in most situations, and have every one of those creatures untapped by the end of combat. Ignore the 20+ year old reminder text, creatures are considered "attacking" until the end of combat step ends. When you move to end of combat, priority passes around the table, which gives you a window to untap everyone with Recon.

Plumb the Forbidden in response to boardwipes makes it harder to overextend into that boardwipe. Instant speed and pseudo dodging counterspells makes this card. Leaving yourself with a full grip of cards is preferable to just eating a wipe and ending up in topdeck mode (Scapegoat is another great budget option with the same mentality).

Tocasia's Welcome is well worth a slot.

Twilight Prophet is the most budget friendly I've ever seen it.

Patron of the Vein may cost 4 more than Cordial Vampire but the effect is powerful enough here to warrant running both.

Last_Laugh I get that more draw is always something everyone wants, and I wouldnt mind adding a couple more spells, but I'm having a hard time switching out stuff for them. What would you swap for Bident of Thassa and Tocasia's Welcome, perhaps Court of Vantress as well? I was thinking that the two 5 CMC Knights, Cavalier of Dawn and Cavalier of Night could be good potential swaps, even though they're well worth the 5 mana cost. Gonna need some help on this

I have to agree with Crow_Umbra that the deck feels very light on draw power.

Bident of Thassa can draw a lot of cards. Consider Court of Vantress here too. Tocasia's Welcome is only once per turn but it's well worth a slot. Tenuous Truce is political but you can almost always find someone to draw with... for awhile at least.

Ok, I have several suggestions for you. I'll try to break it down by category and keep it budget friendly.

Card Draw (load up on this effect, it's one of the decks biggest strengths): Aerial Extortionist doubles as annoying removal while drawing cards. Breena, the Demagogue draws cards and beefs up your dudes quick. Starscream, Power Hungry  ^Flip because the monarchy is pretty easy to take back and hold here and he's an artifact so he comes with a buddy. Tegwyll, Duke of Splendor is an anthem effect for faeries that draws cards. Bident of Thassa/Reconnaissance Mission will draw a LOT of cards here. Plumb the Forbidden I typically use in response to boardwipes so I have a grip full of cards to redeploy. Tocasia's Welcome is self explanatory. Robe of the Archmagi since Alela is a warlock.

Buffs/Counters: Anduril, Narsil Reforged's 2x +1+1 counters on everyone is nuts here. Skyhunter Strike Force will give everyone +3+3 just for attacking all 3 opponents. Nykthos Paragon is conveniently an enchantment and Alelas has lifelink built in (this thing is deceptively disgusting here). Flowering of the White Tree is another good anthem effect here.

Vault of the Archangel is expensive to activate but you typically don't need to. This affects combat in your favor just with the unspoken threat of potential activation. Hold up mana, be committed to using it if needed, and cast stuff on your 2nd main if you didn't activate it.
