So is a build with white/black really not worth it in standard?

The black in this deck isn't even worth being there imo... and there's too much white requiring dual W's

I have on the other hand considered doing something like this, I like Cloistered Youth a lot it seems to fit the bill and obviously unburial rites

this is my somewhat attempt at white black with a lot of creature control... it'll prolly be human based

I agree with Fabellious. The entire deck is :manaw: mana cards, except for 8 :manab: mana cards. The deck's balance is a bit off.

I'm not too sure I agree with all of Fabellious' changes, though I am somewhat interested in Skirsdag High Priest in this type of deck.

In fact, I think Morkrut Banshee and Reaper from the Abyss might also find a home in a :manawb: mana deck based on heavy Creature removal.

Yeah I tested it a lot on cockatrice and got owned pretty hard most of the time. I'm gonna try to add those high cost creatures and survive with the control already in the deck

I use b/w every week and I always make top 8 with it. I'm still tooling around with it next fnm I'm putting 2 grimories in and playtesting more but its pretty close. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=234819 feel free to give me any comments or imput.
