If you have 2-3 standstills in your grave, you should already be up a ton of cards and be able to close the game without a random combo. Opalesence isn't very good, and the standstills couldn't...
Fair enough. There would also be the potential difficulty of returning a standstill that you'd rather not.
I'm not a landstill player, but I've ran Intuition for Moat, Replenish, Replenish or Moat, Humility, Replenish against tribal metas before.
This is what I would play today:
4 Wasteland
1 Rishadan Port
1 Mishra's Factory
1 Karakas
2 Flooded Strand
4 Windswept Heath
7 Plains
4 AEther Vial
Hand:
1x Chancellor of the Annex
1x Chancellor of the Forge
1x Chancellor of the Spires
2x Simian Spirit Guide
1x Combust
1x Leyline of Sanctcity
Library:
3x Memnite
I would love to be a part of this.
I feel obligated (though it may be obvious to most people) to point out that playing random people on MWS does not constitute as "testing". If your deck doesn't...
@ruckus I will definitely try out Canonist, but a lot of the time it will just be a Grizzly Bear. It wouldn't have helped much against Pierre, he would just kill me a little slower, there is no way i...
Wrote a Tournament Report using the deck:

I do tend to get 'sporked' by Lyle
If your splashing green and already running Scryb Ranger, Fauna Shaman seems pretty good with Squadron Hawk.
The deck is definitely weak against combo and the rock. (also Team America, which was like 20% in testing, but I won against 2 Team Americas in LA so I may have to reconsider that)
In very limited...
I wouldn't play with less than 4 Weathered Wayfarer. I'm not impressed by Mangara/Karakas (Although the list probably should have 1 Karakas, to be tutored with Wayfarer) it seems to slow and to easy...
Brainstorm would be nice, but then you would probably be better off playing U/W Tempo. Being Mono-White allows you to play Rishadan Ports/Mishra's Factories.
Scroll Rack still isn't great without a Squadron Hawk. Top allows you to find cards that aren't random, and without relying on another card. I don't know why people are so keen to try and get rid of...
Does Scroll Rack do anything without a Squadron Hawk? There aren't a whole lot of dead cards to put back. Even with a Hawk, you have to pay 5 mana to get 3 fresh cards. Sensei's Top serves a similar...
This is what i'm running now:
8 Plains
4 Marsh Flats
2 Arid Mesa
4 Wasteland
1 Rishadan Port
1 Mishra's Factory
4 AEther Vial
3 Sensei's Divining Top
Loved the intro, it was pretty entertaining.
Congrats on top 8ing
+1 Engineered Explosives in the board would go a long way against Dredge and Belcher.
It wasn't Alex Bertoncini, but thank you.
EDIT: I really liked the Harrier, I was happy to see it whenever it popped up, but glad I only played one. 1 Figure will likely become a Mom. And I will...
Wow, thanks for catching that, but I feel really bad now. I didn't know, but thats still cheating.
I didn't test Hawk with anything else, I think its good enough on its own.
The -ten is for...
Things i would change: I would take out plains and play more fetches, I just didn't have any more fetches. I will most likely take out Sword of Fire and Ice but for what i don't know yet. Also, I...
15th at SCG LA with White Weenie
I’m relatively young for a magic player (I’m 15) and so I don’t have the ability to travel to a lot of events. And as my local store’s legacy tourneys are...
That was me who piloted white weenie, and i got 15th not top 8. That being said, Squadron Hawk is amazing.
EDIT: I wrote a tournament report for anyone who's interested:...
Ok thank you.
