Description

This deck was inspired by the "No-Limit Soldiers" standard deck by Alex Sittner from RTR-THS standard season.

Very simple and straightforward mono-white soldier tribal deck. Plays on a pretty tight budget, too.

Idea is to play plenty of 1 drop soldiers that hit for at least 2 damage each, then drop an Obelisk of Urd to beef them up and a Launch the Fleet to make a bunch of 4 power dudes attacking and beating face.

Militia's Pride can steadily increase your board state on the cheap, and Return to the Ranks allows you to trade creatures in confidence that you will just reanimate them later. Very, very simple but could be a fun casual deck.

Let me know what you think! Please give me some suggestions for a few decent sideboard cards too!

Here's a small example of a quick win, there are other ways to do it but this one stands out!

Turn 1 - Champion of the Parish

Turn 2 - 2x Any of the Human soldiers (Soldier of the Pantheon, Elite Vanguard, Boros Elite, another Champion). Attack for 3.

Turn 3 - Tap all 3 creatures and 3 plains to cast Obelisk of Urd. You can even play more creatures / Raise the Alarm before the Obelisk as you can tap them for the Convoke even with summoning sickness.

Turn 4 - Launch the Fleet on 3 of your dudes, then Brave the Elements before blockers are declared, choosing opponent's colour of defending creatures. Hit them in the face for around 22 damage, more if you have Boros Elites or extra Champion of the Parish, or if you got more dudes out on turn 3.
