In the heart of Holy see

In the home of Christianity

The Seat of power is in danger

There's a foe of a thousand swords

They've been abandoned by their lords

Their fall from grace will pave their path, to damnation

Then the 189

In the service of heaven

They're protecting the the holy line

It was 1527, gave their lives on the steps to heaven

Thy will be done!

For the grace, for the might of our lord

For the home of the holy

For the faith, for the way of the sword

Gave their lives so boldly

For the grace, for the might of our lord

In the name of his glory

For the faith, for the way of the sword

Come and tell their story again

Under guard of 42

Along a secret avenue

Castel Saint’Angelo is waiting

They're the guard of the Holy See

They're the guards of Christianity

Their path to history is paved with salvation

Dying for salvation with dedication

No Capitulation, annihilation

Papal commendation, reincarnation

Heaven is your destination

In the name of god

Gave their lives so boldly

Come and tell the Swiss guards story again....

Welcome my fellow crusaders! This is a Crusade theme deck, because we will take jerusalem, we will take back the holy land! DEUS VULT! We must destroy the Saracen's in the name of our lord! Our Lord!

The deck is a some what token theme deck, with Darien, King of Kjeldor as our lord we need to take damage to generate soldiers for our crusade. I like to use what people call pain lands, but in this case lets call them Holy Lands. Ancient Tomb , City of Brass , Grand Coliseum , Nomad Stadium , Tarnished Citadel . We will also have Vesuva , and Thespian's Stage to copy our other holy lands to generate soldiers. We may need some more recruiters to enlist more troops like Hero of Bladehold , Recruiter of the Guard , Martial Coup , Anointed Procession , and our lovely what I like to call generals of our army Elspeth, Knight-Errant , Elspeth, Sun's Champion , and Elspeth Tirel . We have ways to empower our crusade because the enemy has 40 life, and a couple tiny crusaders isn't gonna cut it. Avacyn, Angel of Hope , and Archangel of Thune are angels from heaven inspiring our troops. Also lets pretend Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite is also an angel... We will also need something on the ground to empower them like Akroma's Memorial , Caged Sun , Coat of Arms , Eldrazi Monument , Captain of the Watch , Field Marshal . I struggled to find ways to refill my hand so we put in Slate of Ancestry (its like our bible xD) and Skullclamp because human sacrifice is required.

This is clearly not a competitive deck, it is a theme / gimmick deck but I enjoy it, and if you like hit the up vote button!

*******I NEED HELP*********

I want to make this deck as crusader themed as possible, but also be able to win games... if you have anything to add PLEASE drop a comment to help retake the holy land from the Saracens! I am thinking we might need some more ways to draw cards... ALSO if you know some fun combos for mono white that could help the deck win more drop a comment!

If you enjoyed please upvote!
