pithing needle is a great sideboard card. it shuts down a whole mess of different decks. I would be willing to drop 1 oring and 1 either wrath or fiendslayer to try and make some room as a 2 of in the board. I am have been testing it in the mana tithe spot this last week and they are pretty interchangeable. tithe is great for my meta, I think sunlance is better online as it seems like a heavier creature environment, at least in my matchups on cockatrice.

You are right, it is a very fast meta. But naturally there are games that get grindy. In a game where it goes past turn 4 or 5 tithe is pretty useless, but a 1 mana 3 damage spell can kill or creature by itself or finish one off after damage would be useful. I don't know that running both in a very aggressive deck is the answer. I have been going back and forth with the idea for a little while now. I may just board it for now and see how I like it. Tr input is always appreciated!

Been contemplating taking out mana tithe for sunlance. Any thoughts?

I highly recommend fetchlands in a 3 color deck. Also reflecting pool works like a charm with murmuring bosk. I have been working on a doran modern deck, take a peek if you have a minute.

+1 from me!

I know you do not play any treefolk in the deck, but murmuring bosk is pretty good at mana fixing in a junk deck. I am trying a junk build that is a little more affordable, give it a look and tell me what you think! +1 like from me!

I really like both hero of bladehold and kinsbale cavalier. The obly point of contention would be their high mana cost. The meta for modern where I am is very very fast. It makes it hard to run a four drop, or multiple, in the environment that we have, also I only run 20 land so it makes yet another hurdle for a four drop.
I do appreciate the feedback, if you have any more suggestions I am more then open to hear any critiques or suggestions!
Thanks for taking the time. You have a deck I could look at for you?

Giving land is giving a potential threat, while a turn 2 pack rat with no mana available to make a copy is a real threat. I'll take my chances with the extra land and removing the rat, or whatever the threat may be. That's just my thoughts. Good luck sir!

Love the deck. I am a big doran fan, he is the general in a edh deck I love to play. I would play dark confidant over arena if I had any suggestions. Also lingering souls is too good to not main board.

Love the deck!

What would you rather your opponent have, a threat or a land? I choose land.
I do really like tribal decks al lot, I have been running a white knights deck with a little more then moderate success. Seeings how they are both mono white, maybe there is something in my decks that might tickle your fancy.
Good job on the tribal, keep it going!

I agree with the celestial colonnade. Whenever possible run that card, it is a game winner!

hero of bladehold is too mana expensive. I was looking for another 2 drop to lower the mana curve a little bit more. Nothing like an opening hand of 3 drops in a deck like this.

I thought about another vial, but I really hate top decking a vial late in the game when I need a little more board presence. I ran Elspeth for a while, but I really like the vigilance that Heliod brings, so I opted for him over Elspeth, that and indestructible and token making is really good. I origianally had 4 knight of the white orchid, but dropped one to make room for the 3rd mana tithe, which by the way, really pisses off control players, lol.

I do whole heartedly agree with the swords. I need to get a find a few so I can try them out. Any idea what to take out for them?

While alleyway jack is an asshat about it, he is right. Miracles is great in Legacy, it just doesn't have what it needs to be effective in a format that is as fast as modern. Constructive criticism is what we are all looking for here, no need to a assclown about it.

I like the idea, keep up the creativitiy Splooge!

I have been toying with the idea of dropping the silverblade paladin for the likes of spectral rider. Any thoughts?

I agree with just about everything you said. Mana tithe comes out in games 2 and 3 if used in game 1. Vial is very good in the middle of a game when you vial in a knight exemplar as a defensive tactic, had won me a solid amount of games that way. I ran elspeth as a 1 of for a while and while it can be a game winner, it usually ends up dead right away and at 4 mana it is a little on the expensive side for this deck. I opted for heliod for indestructible and vigilance in her stead. I would put some swords in when/if I can acquire some.

I really appreciate the feedback! Any decks you have that you would like looked at just let me know!

I like the deck! It, quite honestly, has inspired me to make a mono white knight deck that can potentially compete in modern at a high level. I think the wrath of god is much better then day of judgment, for the same cost it takes care of pesky creatures in the pod decks that are ever so prevalent.
Anyway, take a look at mine if you have a minute, thank you!

True that. I moved o-ring to the sideboard for it. That will be an easy swap out in a lot of cases. Thanks for the input as always!
