Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"I'm making a deck series for introducing new players to Magic through Commander as a format, with each deck exemplifying a couple pillar archetypes of its color identity. Each deck in this series is meant to be relatively balanced against each other, and as such will sacrifice more objectively powerful cards for the sake of teaching the game and introducing mechanics in small, digestible bites. \n\nThis is the mono-white deck in the series, and focuses on lifegain and weenie token creation to drive its gameplan.\n"}]}
