Branching out —Feb. 23, 2015
I started to retool this deck, but I've decided to leave it as it was when upvoted. So, I've created this new variant which I intend on bringing to my next FNM: The Amazing Heroic Flying Rogue Soldiers of Urd.
It isn't a Soldier, but from my testing, Dragonscale General can be a monster in this deck. I currently am trying four in my version, going slightly slower, but so far it's been doing lots of work for me. Playing it in the 2nd main phase after a big attack is something most opponents will never anticipate.

Any solutions how to replace Brimaz into anything with 0-5 dollar cost?

I ran with 1 less Plains, 2 Launch the Fleet and 2 Abzan Falconer previously. That's a budget option.

Took this recently to a Free Monday Night Standard at my local shop. (3 Rounds of Swiss) ended up going 2-1 with it. Granted my 3rd match ended up drawing really poorly the 2nd game and i was able to take it. Otherwise had some really good match ups, even if i lost the 2nd match in the end. Very fun deck. Will have to try something like the Dragonscale General as i like the idea of bolstering after a massive attack. Of course, someone did mention throwing some blue in this to get aqueous form and other useful blue enchantments. However i feel that would just mess up the overall feeling of the deck. It is an interesting thought though.
Either way, thanks for the deck. Definitely a fun one to play!

@YouEnjoyMyself That's terrific! I'm honored that you built and played the deck. I'm glad you had fun piloting it. You're welcome!

Would you run Citadel Siege in this deck? I like your list though, gonna see if I can assemble it before next FNM. Mono white ftw!

I think two Citadel Siege could be pretty awesome in this deck. The challenge is deciding what to cut to make room. Maybe two Defiant Strike, one Brimaz, King of Oreskos, and add one more Plains or one Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx for a stronger mana base. That's of the top of my head, so it's something to think about. I'm hesitant to cut any heroic enablers and/or cantrips.

Have you thought about Pressure Point I have been playing testing it and the versatility is nice as a two of

What do you take out for the two Pressure Point? One Defiant Strike, one Chosen by Heliod?
